## [Markdown to PDF](https://atom.io/packages/markdown-pdf)

Convert markdown-formatted documents to pdf files without ever leaving Atom.

### Usage
Just focus the window containing your markdown file and use the `convert` command (`Packages > Markdown PDF > Convert`).

The output PDF will be styled similar to the markdown on `github.com`, as well as any [user styles](https://flight-manual.atom.io/using-atom/sections/basic-customization/#style-tweaks) you have added.

It will appear in the same directory as the Markdown you are converting, with the same name and a `.pdf` extension.

You can set parameters in the package's settings, such as page and border size.

### Tips

#### User styles

Note that user styles will have to be encapsulated in a `.markdown-body` selector to override the default stylesheets, like this:

```less
.markdown-body {
h1 {
font-size: 1.3em;
}
}
```

#### Page breaks

Page breaks can be added with this element:

```html


```

#### Image paths

If you have trouble rendering an image, you may have to use a relative path:

```
# this doesn't work:
![logo](/assets/logo.png)

# but this does
![logo](./assets/logo.png)
```
