Feature like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Book

Basic Printing of content is currently available in Tiki through:


Missing for Book Feature (as far as carsten.aevermann know)

  • Automatic adding of special pages such as copyright, page index, subject index, book & chapter title pages
  • Collection of pages (adding to a structure) by drag and drop
  • Suggestion of related pages (maybe utilizing similar pages?)
  • Integration of pages from other tikiwiki sites. Maybe some kind of citation footnote have to be generated. See Eclectic Module
  • Saving of a book/page collection (structures) in MyTiki -> My books
  • Option to send books/page collections to friends in a way they could modify them
  • Shopping Cart
  • Connection to author accounting system (by Poiesipedia/Jörn Ott)
  • High Quality output (essential!) through (LA)Tex. or Apache FOP. I think wikipedias great looking pdf is generated by tex, but eg. the .odt is generated through xml transformation and doesn't look that good.
  • Connection to a book on demand store (by region). Maybe using PediaPress.

Nice to have (Long term planning)

  • As the *book supply chain* field is changing, a method of distribution, such as the ONIX standard is to be considered. See http://editeur.org/ for more information
  • Multiple predefined print-layouts.
  • Tool to interactively define layout for printoutput.
