Hi Ben,
I'm not using the GeoServer Print module myself but a separate
stand-alone install of MapFishPrint (which is where the print module comes
from).
My own one does include output formats in the info.json output:
{"scales":[{"name":"1:250","value":"250"},...,{"name":"1:10,000,000","value":"10000000"}],"dpis":[{"name":"300","value":"300"}],"outputFormats":[{"name":"bmp"},{"name":"jpg"},{"name":"wbmp"},{"name":"jpeg"},{"name":"png"},{"name":"pdf"},{"name":"gif"}],"layouts":[{"name":"A3
Landscape","map":{"width":1005,"height":780},"rotation":true},{"name":"A3
Portrait","map":{"width":780,"height":1020},"rotation":true},{"name":"A4
Landscape","map":{"width":675,"height":542},"rotation":true},{"name":"A4
Portrait","map":{"width":535,"height":700},"rotation":true}],"printURL":"
http://wppgeog3:8090/print2.0/pdf/print.pdf","createURL":"
http://wppgeog3:8090/print2.0/pdf/create.json"}
Also you can define the YAML to include all output formats with this:
formats: ['*']
You might want to try the stand alone MFP - it's significantly newer than
the one GeoServer uses. You can get a compiled snapshot from:
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/mapfish/print/
Or maybe someone else can help you resolve the issue relayed in your post.
Regards,
Jonathan
