Tips for working with UniversalExport
- Shoutbox comments are not included when a page is exported.
Classical export with MediaWiki
MediaWiki itself only offers the export of content pages in a proprietary XML format. There are, however, extensions which make the creation of ODF, PDF or DocBook files possible.
