Change the 'Export' button to one that says 'Print'
At present if a student opens a list and then prints it without being signed in they get all the hyperlinks included in the list. However, if they have signed in and do this the hyperlinks are not there.
A much better route for them to take is using the 'Export' button as you don't need to be signed in to get a PDf that is clearer.But I don;t think this is immediately obvious.
I have attached a not very clear photo of what I mean, apologies as they were taken on my phone

This won’t cater for the other options available in that drop-dwon so we won’t be addressing this idea. However, we did make an improvement to the hyperlinks in the export some time ago

Hi,
I agree with Clinton's questions about how you would treat the other export options. I think it would be more confusing to have a print button , which does not perform the implied action but instead leads you to various options for exporting, none of which are printing.
We have however released an improvement to the standard browser print. It now excludes the hyperlinks that were cluttering up the print out and is closer to the export to PDF.

What would happen with the export options which do not involve printing, eg. exporting to .ris for use with referencing software?
