Hi there, 

 

is there an option to print or export the pages miniatures form he Pages Panel in InDesign as a PDF?
I would like to include the labels assigned for each chapter, to share a better overview of the hole document.

Thanks in advance

You cannot print that panel, but you can print the pages themselves as Thumbnails. You get a choice of how many to print per page.

Cumbersome workaround, but you should be able to save as a Postscript then distill the postscript to a PDF.

Thank you, yes, finally figured out that one. 
its a pity though adobe doesnt let you print the thumbnails with colors—these help for client orientation enourmously. Well it is possible but only through screenshots making 🙂

Thank you all for help and advice!

I would like to include the labels assigned for each chapter,

 

If you want to include labels I don’t think printing .ps thumbnails will work. If it’s just for reference could you screen capture the Pages panel and PDF the capture?:
