save selection somehow (like saving reports/queries is possible)

can you elaborate on this, please.

I think this would be an excellent feature to add as well. What I assume they originally requested is the ability to save the definition of which pages are included in the PDF. For example, if you have a site that is used primarily for documentation of a project or system, it is nice to generate the documentation as a PDF for each release. However, for a large project, that PDF could include tens or hundreds of wiki pages, and creating that final document can be tedious with the WikiToPDF admin page. Most of us are OK doing this once or twice, but if it needs to be done monthly or weekly, we are going to get frustrated. If the definitions of the PDF created in the WikiToPDF admin page could, somehow, be stored somewhere, then not only do you save some people time, but you build in the ability to make minor variations on the same book/PDF.

So, without looking at the code or knowing how Trac stores extra data, it would be nice to have an extra form (say to the right of the WikiToPDF admin form) that lists saved book definitions. These could be loaded, modified, and subsequently saved. The user can then choose a previously defined book, or create a new book. When creating a new book, there would be an additional button at the bottom that allows one to save the book definition. Either an extra text field exists for the book name, or the save button pops up a dialog requesting the book name.

The report definition would be saved in the Trac database with the following fields: book name (used only for identifying different books), title, sub-title, version, date, selected pages (list in the order selected), type (PS or PDF), and possibly some information (managed by the system) about who created it, when it was last modified, and a revision--these might or might not be different from the fields at the top of the WikiToPDF form.

I like your ideas and I have some ideas too, but I don't have much time. I need more help and more developers.
