Print-Function with Freemarker-Content-Template?

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I search for the right Solution/Approach:
a Print-Functionality, which prints the Content of a Workspace with all off the Childcontent and all Childspaces.
I need Corporate Identity with Header (Corp-Logo, Workspace-Titel,Document-Titel) and a Footer with some ContentAspects like Creator, Modification-Date, Version, Category).
is a freemarker-Template the right way?

Yes a FreeMarker template that generates a nicely formated HTML for print is the ideal approach.

You can write macros etc. in FreeMarker that recursively list the contents of a directory, so what you suggest is quite feasible.

Here is an example macro that recursively outputs the contents of a folder space:

<#macro dir node depth>
   <#list node.children as c>
      <tr>
         <td width=16>
            <#if c.isDocument>
               <a href="${url.context}${c.url}" target="new"><img src="${url.context}${c.icon16}" alt="${c.name}" title="${c.name}" border=0></a>
            <#else>
               <img src="${url.context}${c.icon16}" alt="${c.name}" title="${c.name}" border=0>
            </#if>
         </td>
         <td>
            <font size='${4 - depth}'>${c.name}</div>
         </td>
         <td>
            ${c.properties.modified?datetime}
         </td>
      </tr>
      <#if c.isContainer && c.children?size != 0>
         <@dir node=c depth=depth+1/>
      </#if>
   </#list>
</#macro>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and you could call it something like:

<table>
<tr><th></th><th>Name</th><th>Modified</th></tr>
      <@dir node=userhome depth=0/>
</table>
‍‍‍‍‍‍

Hope this helps,
