1. Question

We are able to use automatic numbered headings in the page but the heading are missing when we export the page to PDF. Can you please let me know what am I missing?

2. Answer

This is actually by design, so that the export templates define everything about the exported document rather than being imposed by the style presented on the website.

For examples on how to configure the pdf exports see:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/customize-exports-to-pdf-190480945.html?_ga=2.29477119.1329209213.1595581527-466715352.1514132676

In this case it may look something like:

body { counter-reset: heading1_counter; } h1:before { content: counter(heading1_counter) ". "; counter-increment: heading1_counter; }

There are also commercial plugins such as scroll pdf export for a bit more ease of use in configuring the export format in case you prefer.
