Yes, the PublishWikiTrail cookbook recipe lets you add a Publish
button to a trail page and produce a printable view of all pages 
on the trail. Once you have that installed and working, the
SearchExtensions recipe plus setting $PublishSearch = true in 
the local config.php adds publish capability to search and 
backlinks results.

And if you use the calendar, $enable_publish = true adds
publish capability to the WikiCalendar recipe.

And if you use the RenamePage recipe, action=links will soon let
you publish all the links on a page.

If that's not enough, in the lab we can turn all of these into
beautifully typeset pdf files. This is very close to beta release.

Is this what you are after?
