I am using the PDF Unformatted style. My View's fields have labels specified ( I've tried using both "Widget label" and "custom" labels ) but the PDF doesn't include them when outputting the field.

Is this by design ? I guess I can work around it by rewriting the field in Views or prefixing the $content variable in the row style setting, but this seems contrary to the idea of just using the power of Views to create the output.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Same here.
@El Bandito, did you find a way to output the labels?

So I've found a way to work around this issue.

In the PHP Code Before Output section, for example, put this code in:

 $content = "<i>Your field name goes here: </i>" . $content;   // The content of the field

Its not the most convenient way to do it, but it works. Perhaps someday someone can write a patch that will allow for the field name to be included (or not included), as needed. @El Bandito, I am guessing that this is by design so as to allow easier enhanced formatting of the label.
