XPress Overview

XPress is a one-click PDF and HTML exporter for Confluence Cloud. Pick your pages, choose a template, and get a finished document - one page or hundreds of them, all looking like they came from the same company.

What XPress gives your team

Section titled “What XPress gives your team”
  • Export templates - set your team’s document style once and everyone’s exports match it, with the settings every document must keep locked in place. Four are ready to use the moment you install. Details →
  • A visual designer - build a template and watch the cover, margins, header, footer and watermark move on the page as you change them. No export-check-adjust loop.
  • One-click export of any Confluence page to PDF or HTML - find the page, press Export, and download the document from the same spot.
  • Bulk export - pick many pages at once, or whole branches of the page tree.
  • Markdown export - your pages as clean Markdown files, ready for a docs site, a repository or an AI assistant. Details →
  • Cover page & contents page - a titled cover with your logo, and a linked table of contents.
  • Watermarks - stamp DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL across every page.
  • Page layout control - paper size, orientation, custom margins.
  • Headers, footers and page numbers - your logo, the title of the page each sheet comes from and your own words, left, centre and right, with page numbers at the top or bottom.
  • A default template per space - one-click exports in that space use it automatically, so nobody has to remember, and space admins can lock it so every export from the space uses it.
  • Export history - the space’s recent exports, so everyone sees what was made and by whom; your own are ready to download again for a limited time. Your own latest exports from every space wait for you on one shelf, too.

Where XPress shows up in Confluence

Section titled “Where XPress shows up in Confluence”

The main workspace is the XPress page - open any Confluence space and you’ll find an XPress entry in the space sidebar, where you pick pages, configure layout, and download your exports.

XPress also has a page of its own under Apps, made for the moment you know which page you want. Find it by its title or pick it from the pages edited most recently, see which template it will come out in, then press Enter to export it and Enter again to download it. Below the list, your latest exports from every space sit on a shelf, drawn in your site’s colours and ready to download again. Your templates, your brand and the whole-space export are one click away.

And every page carries an Export (XPress) action (in its byline and the ··· content menu), so you can export it without leaving it.

The XPress page under Apps: a search box above the ten most recently edited pages with 1.2 Your first export selected, the Will export panel showing its template, paper and switches, and a shelf of your latest exports below
