I use <a> tags around a <figure> tag with an <img> and a <figcaption> like this:

<a href="https://i.imgur.com/S17rFny.jpg">
<figure class="image">
  <img src="https://i.imgur.com/S17rFny.jpg">
  <figcaption style="color:gray; text-align:center;">An image</figcaption>
</figure>
</a>

I do this so if the reader of the PDF clicks on the image, it opens in a browser window (to view full size). This behavior works in the preview, but not in the exported pdf.

while,
thank you for your job.
there a question.
how can i add images to the markdown files?
Look forward to your favourable reply，ths a lot.

Doesn't generate a Table of Contents from titles, subtitles, etc.

Thanks for the great project!

It's nice that I could in principle run your code offline, but I only need a quick conversion of my markdown doc to a PDF without installing anything anywhere.

As it stands, this app is hosted by Netlify, and I don't know or have any reason to trust Netlify (or you). (not meaning to be rude)

I would find the online version of this much more trustworthy if it was a static github.io page.

• I could be sure md2pdf.github.io actually runs the code I can see in the repo
• I know github.io doesn't allow dynamic server side components guzzling up my sweet document and storing it for whoevers' viewing please
• AFAIK github.io doesn't even have shitty analytics, which is great if you want this to be a GDPR conforming tool that people can also use at the workplace w/o having their ass busted by IT, legal, or whatever
• You'd get continuous delivery (CD) for free.

That way, cool hackers that write everything in markdown instantly know you won't collect their data on your server - because (hopefully) you can't. Probably that's not even true, haven't looked into GH pages for a long while, and you always could come up with some way to collect your users' data. But it would make it harder.

Make it extra hard to collect data, even for people who use this software on their own servers. Do set CORS and whatever you can so people have to explicitly disable that if they want to run an instance that does collect data.

While you're at it, also remove that shitty Google Analytics, it smells like vanity and puts an otherwise cool tool to shame. Metadata is data too.

can we have a support for latex math equations? Like the pandoc markdown

• favicon.ico
• manifest.json
• meta tag title/description/preview...etc
• GA maybe

Choese Button FAIL

I used the simple markdown link format to add a link

[write your text](write the link)

It worked in the preview format, but when I exported it into a PDF file, all the links vanished, and none of them worked.

Suggestion: Printing a PDF file removes the link(s) attached to the PDF file. Rather saving the PDF file preserves the link. So if you put an option for saving rather than printing then I guess all the links will work perfectly as we get in the preview.

At least render testing or snapshot testing would be good, help wanted.

When converting the markdown file with a table of contents (example below), the links in the converted pdf file do not work.

Instead of the respective header in the pdf file itself, the link in the pdf file points to the app's page (i.e. https://md2pdf.netlify.app/#hello).

<!-- example table of contents -->

- [Hello](#hello)
  - [md2pdf](#md2pdf)
    - [Thank you](#thank-you)

I was wondering if this is something that can be fixed.

Also, thank you so much for the app, it's very useful. 🙌

Prefer use the native event with useEffect instead of experimental & unstable library (will increase the learning cost to other new contributor)

This is my first time ever creating an issue on someone else's repo, so I apologize if this is bad form.

I would like to use this service in an API related capacity to send markdown content and print options over a POST request that returns the pdf, is this a possible feature or something that I would be able to collaborate on in the future?

when i use chromium to choose my MD file, the page was freezing

Great project - is there a simple summary of the fonts and formatting you are using for the pdf output?

Now, the app would not use localstorage to save state (editor text), so need to remove something about persist state file/dependency/hook .

Is it possible to make it able to use local images/svg-files?

As title, not support firefox (im using firefox 65.0.1)
the function bar was not show.

Thank you for this very nice service!

Here's a "nice to have" suggestion:

Use case: I already wrote an .md file in my favorite Editor (nvim) and now want to turn it into a PDF.
I find your service on the internet, use it, but when I transform my document the file name is set to md2pdf - Markdown to PDF.pdf because that's (still) the <title> of the web app.
It does so every time - it doesn't even remember the name when Transform multiple times.

Maybe it's easy to suggest a filename, maybe like so.
You could get the filename from the chosen uploaded file, and make that override some other sane default, like choosing the biggest headline title (# h1 head line badumm tuss!) as file name.

It would be even nicer if it remembered the file name I chose the last time, but I don't know if that is easy to do.

This has a typo. It should be "Markdown".

The readme says there is an offline web app, but I can't find it :(

Supplying the following Code on https://md2pdf.netlify.app/ results in JS execution

### XSS PoC
<!-- markdownlint-disable MD038-->
- `<Img src = x onerror = "javascript: window.onerror = alert(document.domain); throw XSS">`

To reproduce, paste the following:

Here is a footnote reference[^1]

[^1]: here's the footnote :)

then export to PDF and click on any of the footnote hyperlinks. expected behavior is it links to the footnote (or back to the reference) but instead it links to something like https://md2pdf.netlify.app/#fnref2

https://github.com/realdennis/md2pdf/blob/master/src/index.js#L9-L17
^ apparently it's a hack, I thought we can done these in here with clean up

It will bring more convenience to users, use this app in another way.

whether a ---/*** in markdown or

Hi,
good work!
Any chance to have a command line utility?
Cheers
Olivier

Unit testing or integration testing

For instance: $2^n$ vs $ 2^n $

I want the former to be displayed in the PDF, not the unrendered code for math expressions.

Thank you in advance :-)

Feature requests

So far when we want to find and do some update for component such as the previewer, we need to access src/App/Components/Markdown/Previewer/Preview.js let's flat the structure.

And also initial state (initialText.js) is in really nested folder, feel wordy src/App/Container/Hooks/InitialText.js

Create a thread to discuss about it, currently we don't have the action items, please don't just send the PR.

I was using md2pdf as a Markdown editor today and I forgot to back-up my work. Clicking on a link by accident resulted in a loss of progress. Would it be possible to add client-side caching to the app so that if a user goes out and comes back to md2pdf, the last-cached content is restored?
