VoodooPhone
This little web export plugin will export your document in such a way that you can view it on your iPhone even if you do not have internet! More information here.
View Document (and save as PDF)
The View Document plugin opens up a window with a paginated view of your entire document, which really is not all that useful by itself. However, you can then bring up the print panel, and choose "Save As PDF" to get a PDF of your entire document.
The source is available for hacking on as well.
Download: View Document plugin
Render Math
The Render Math VoodooPad Plugin uses LaTeX to render math in your VoodooPad documents.

Extract Images
Extract Images (ppc only) will add a plugin that will let you extract all the images in a page to the place of your choosing. Actually, it will extract any file attachment in there, but you probably only have images. OS: 10.3.5+
Download: Extract Images
Hot Key
The Hot Key plugin (ppc only) lets you assign a hot key to VoodooPad, which when pressed from any application will bring VoodooPad to the front. It is very useful for people who like to take down notes quickly. OS: 10.2.8+

HTML Tools
HTML Tools provides a preview window for interpreting the current page as HTML. It also provides an option to view the page as rendered Textile or Markdown, as well as an option to copy the selected text as HTML. OS: 10.4+
Download: HTML Tools
Script Stuff
Script Stuff (ppc only) provides two actions under the Script menu. The first one is "Execute as AppleScript", which will take the contents of the current page and run it like you would in ScriptEditor. The second function is "Format as Python", which will take the front page and colorize it like it is a python script. Make sure the preference "Allow manual underlining and font color changes" is enabled first. OS: 10.3.5+

- "Select Line" selects the current line
- "Select Paragraph" selects the current paragraph
