Owlia Course Exporter

v2.1.0Stable No AIMoodle 4.5 – 5.3

PDF export of course content — no AI required.

Course Exporter turns the text of a Moodle course into a PDF: a cover page with the course image, a linked table of contents, then the sections and activities you select, with images, tables, formulas and page numbers.

It exports labels, Owlia activities and assignment descriptions — not submissions, grades or other activity types. No AI is used, nothing leaves your Moodle site, and it needs neither the Owlia suite nor an API key.

The value for learners and instructors

Where this plugin genuinely supports learning — and where it does not.

Offline & print access

Supporting

Course text can be printed or shared as a PDF for learners who study offline or prefer paper.

STEM content

Supporting

When TeX is installed on the server, maths formulas are drawn as images, so they appear in the PDF.

What it does not do

An export utility with no learning interaction of its own. It is not a full course archive (three content types only), and the PDF is not tagged for screen readers.
