# md-to-pdf
|
|
|
|
To be able to convert one or more Markdown (`.md`) files to pdf, save [md-to-pdf](md-to-pdf) in `"$HOME"/.local/share/nautilus/scripts/md-to-pdf` and make it executable.

As an example, one can have a look at this README file converted to pdf: [README.md.pdf](./README.md.pdf)
|
|
|
|
## The conversion process
|
|
|
|
At first the Markdown is converted to HTML with `cmark-gfm`. Then the HTML file is modified so that large
|
|
images fit on the PDF. Finally `wkhtmltopdf` converts HTML to pdf.
