PDF Generation

[frohlichcortezh]

Describe the bug PDF generate isn't located where I believe it'd be after following the documentation.

I might have misunderstood something, so I hope somebody could help.

To Reproduce

Here's my docfx.json
{
  "metadata": [
    {
      "src": [
        {
          "files": ["**/*.csproj"],
          "exclude": ["**/bin/**", "**/obj/**"],
          "src": "../"
        }
      ],
      "dest": "api"
    }
  ],
  "pdf": {
    "content": [
      {
        "files": [
          "articles/**.yml"
        ],
        "exclude": [
          "api/**",
          "**/bin/**",
          "**/obj/**",
          "_site_pdf/**",
          "**/toc.yml",
          "**/toc.md"
        ]
      }
    ],
    "resource": [
      {
        "files": [ "articles/images/**"]
      }
    ],
    "overwrite": "specs/*.md",
    "dest": "_site-pdf"
  },
  "build": {
    "content": [
      {
        "files": [
          "index.md",
          "articles/**/*.md",
          "articles/**/*.yml"
        ],
        "exclude": [
          "_site/**",
          "**.*.pdf"
        ]
      },
      {
        "files": [
          "api/**/*.md",
          "api/**/*.yml"
        ]
      }
    ],
    "resource": [
      {
        "files": [
          "articles/images/**"
        ]
      }
    ],
    "output": "_site",
    "template": [
      "default",
      "modern"
    ],
    "globalMetadata": {
      "_appName": "BKS.Gmud",
      "_appTitle": "Gmud",
      "_enableSearch": true,
      "homepage": "index.md",
      "pdf": true,
      "pdfTocPage": true,
      "pdfFileName": "Manual-GMUD.pdf"
    },
    "postProcessors": ["ExtractSearchIndex"]
  }
}

Expected behavior After running docfx pdf````, I though a folder _site-pdf```` would have been generated.

Screenshots

It was generated under _site/articles/

Context (please complete the following information):

• Docfx version: 2.77.0+bd00e2b93951e9e7fa6e5abd990d2cd77d7a83bd

I though a folder `_site-pdf`` would have been generated.

pdf config sections are not supported on latest version (v2.77.0). (These config section is used before v2.75.0 that using wkhtmltopdf to generate PDFs)

Thank you for the quick reply. Do you suggest downgrading ? Any tips on how I could set it up on v2.77 ?

Currently no options available for generating PDFs and outputs PDF files only. It though, it need to manually copy PDF files from _site output directories.
