Settings
XPress’s configuration is intentionally minimal. There’s no separate admin settings panel — everything is in the Settings sidebar on the XPress space page, where you can see and adjust it right next to the page tree.
How to open the Settings sidebar
Section titled “How to open the Settings sidebar”In any space with XPress installed, open XPress from the space sidebar. At the top of the XPress page is a Settings icon. Click it to toggle the sidebar open.
What’s in the sidebar
Section titled “What’s in the sidebar”| Section | Controls | Documented in |
|---|---|---|
| Layout | Paper size, orientation | Page Layout |
| Margins | Top / Right / Bottom / Left in mm | Page Layout |
| Header | Free-text header | Headers & Footers |
| Footer | Free-text footer | Headers & Footers |
| Page Numbers | Toggle + position (Bottom Left/Center/Right) | Headers & Footers |
These together define how every PDF page in your export looks. See Custom Templates for combinations that work for common document types.
Session vs persistent
Section titled “Session vs persistent”All XPress settings are session-only — they apply for your current XPress session in this browser tab, and reset to defaults the next time you open XPress in this space.
There is no per-space saved configuration today. Per-space saved templates are a likely future addition. If you regularly export with the same settings, the workflow is to set them each time you open XPress.
What’s not currently configurable
Section titled “What’s not currently configurable”These are aspirational additions, not in the current product:
- Per-space saved templates
- Visual template editor
- Logo upload for headers
- Custom fonts, colors, or branding
- Different settings for different sections of a bulk export
- Different first-page styling
- Odd/even page distinctions

Admin-level configuration
Section titled “Admin-level configuration”XPress doesn’t expose admin-level configuration today — there’s no global default or admin lockdown of settings. Every user with access to a space can set their own export configuration when they open XPress.
What’s stored
Section titled “What’s stored”XPress’s only persistent state is the Exports history (the last 20 exports per space). See Export History for details. Configuration is not persisted.
