Export to PDF w Accordion content
under review
Janal Pauley
Articles with accordion content do not export as open when creating the PDF regardless of whether they are open or not. The example provided had all accordion content open, however the items only exported as header content.

Please can we have an update on when we could expect Export to PDF to export accordions open rather than closed? We are planning to use accordions more in the coming months, but PDF export is important for some users, and I am expecting disappointment from some users when they export to PDF and find they cannot see much of the page content.

This feature is also very important to us. Is there a plan to fix it? Thank you!

Super critical to our knowledge base, any update on the review?
Over half of our articles consist of content within accordions.

Change formatting on PDF exported pages to fit the PDF medium
Avi Eisenman
I was able to export a page (from the block editor) with collapsible (accordion sections) to pdf with all the sections expanded and the contents visible to readers. This is a huge improvement from the sections all displayed as collapsed.
It would be very helpful if the formatting was adjusted to better fit the PDF medium. For example, if it didn't show the expand prompt ("click here to expand this section") or if it entirely removed boxes around the collapsible sections, as that whole function isn't relevant to pdf.
Thanks

Hi Palak - I completely understand how crucial it is for authors to have a smooth and efficient process in exporting topics to PDF, especially when accordions are involved. I apologize for any inconvenience this issue may have caused. We're committed to resolving this as quickly as possible. We will investigate this issue further and update you the status. We appreciate your patience and cooperation.

This is critically important. Accordion content is an incredibly useful documentation feature in general. Honestly, the Markdown editor should also support a first-class annotation type called "Accordion" (Just like your current Note, Warning, and Error annotation types) that properly displays accordion content, instead of forcing us to put html </details> and </summary> blocks inside of Markdown articles.
It doesn't seem like it would take that much work to convert
:::(Accordion)(Accordion Title)

:::
Into
<details><summary>Accordion Title</summary>
Blah
</details><br>
In the rendered XHTML of a markdown article.

Super important to us too. It discourages us from implementing the accordion.
