Frequently asked questions
Does this handle bullet-heavy notes well?+
Yes. Indentation and nested lists render with appropriate serif spacing for readability.
Can I add my course header?+
Include the header at the top of your Markdown as headings or a blockquote — it'll render at the document start. For repeating headers, post-process the PDF.
What about diagrams from Mermaid?+
Mermaid code blocks pass through as preformatted text. Pre-render diagrams to PNG/SVG and embed as images for PDF output.
