What are the Production List Settings?

Galley's "Export to PDF" option puts a lot of information into your hands. Here's what the options mean.

When you store Recipes in Galley, there is a tremendous amount of food data 'behind-the-scenes'. Get that information printed in a useful format for Production by using "Export to PDF". This guide explores the settings available.
