Good to know
Because this converter drives your browser's own print engine, the PDF you get is a faithful snapshot of the print preview — no separate rendering pipeline to introduce surprises. That also means the fonts embedded in the file are whatever your operating system resolves for the serif, sans-serif and monospace defaults, so a document generated on macOS may embed different faces than one generated on Windows or Linux.
Two print-dialog settings do most of the work. Turn Background graphics on if you want shaded code blocks and table borders to survive; leave it off for a lighter, ink-friendly result. Set margins to Default rather than None so headings near a page break don't get clipped. If a wide table or a long code line runs off the right edge, reduce the scale to around 90% before saving.
Markdown has no concept of a page, so you can't force a hard page break from the source. If you need one, add a small inline element such as <div style="page-break-before: always"></div> — the print engine honors standard CSS pagination properties.
Reach for this tool when you want a fixed-layout, read-only artifact: a printed handout, an emailed spec, or something you'll archive. If the recipient needs to edit the text, convert to an editable document with Markdown to DOCX instead, which opens straight into Word or Google Docs.
