This is a great extension. I really wish that it offered the ability to export the resulting HTML into a PDF document, similar to the Markdown PDF extension by yzane.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. To be honest I don't have plans to do much to this extension except make sure it doesn't break; for now if you want a PDF you can do a couple things:

  1. Export to HTML, which it does support. Then, print that to PDF. Because of #16 the output may be slightly different than expected.
  2. Copy your markdown over to https://homebrewery.naturalcrit.com/ and print to pdf from there.

This was never intended to be a replacement for the homebrewery, but just a way to do editing in my preferred editor rather than the browser editor they provide. It's possible their styling has changed and no longer matches this extension.

There's also the similar GM Binder, though I wish they were open source. They just ran a kickstarter for funds to develop a bunch of new features, so that might be the way to go moving forward.

I second this request... This would be a great feature! =D
