Math and footnote integration? #178

Open GaloisField2718 opened 4 months ago

GaloisField2718 commented 4 months ago

Hello,

Small question, is it possible to render math as $x^2$ and footnote [^1]?

Otherwise thanks a lot for your very easy to use tool!! 🙏

[^1]: test footnote

Hi @GaloisField2718, glad to hear you've found the tool useful. We use Showdownjs for the rendering from markdown -> html which is then converted into a PDF. If it's not included in their base package then it's not something mdpdf supports at the moment.

I'd suggest exploring their docs and plugins to find out a bit more. If it's just a simple configuration toggle then I'd be up for a PR to enable it in mdpdf. This isn't a project I spend much time on right now though.

Hi @BlueHatbRit, thank you for your answer. I'll take a look to Shodownjs and try to see if there are such features. If I do something and it's functional I'll make a PR. Thanks again for your time and your tool. I let this open for now is it ok?

Thanks again for your time and your tool

You're welcome! It's worth noting that this project isn't as active as it used to be. I don't use it so much anymore so my time on it has been quite limited. Glad you're getting value out of it though!

I let this open for now is it ok?

Yep, all good!
