Hi everyone,  
I would like to know if it possible not to load globalize for a  
specific actions. I try to convert a view to pdf but there are some  
conflicts in the render\_to\_string function. So I would like to render  
the view without Globalize.  
Is it possible?  
Unfortunately the action\_view of Globalize seems too tricky to mess  
around with
