There are 3 tools available for the PDF generation (printing):

Shows a form and let the user choose the extent of a single page.
You can find it in the West panel.
- mapfish.widgets.print.MultiPage:
Show a table and a form and let the user choose the extent of multiple pages.
You can find it in the West panel.
- mapfish.PrintAction:
An Ext.Action that prints a single page with an extent that fits as good as possible the current map's extent.
You can find it in the toolbar over the map.
You can enable the "summit" layer (click on the "+" on the right of the map) and it will shown on the PDF as well.
Don't hesitate to play with the Layout and DPI fields in the forms.
