md-to-pdf

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

Screenshot of the context menu in Nautilus (GNOME files):

As an example, one can have a look at this README file converted to 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.

Alternatives conversion methods

see alternatives.sh
