Exporting a Publication as PDF, Markdown or Typst
BeginnerTurn the same publication into a document you can send, print or hand to another tool.
The publication that makes your website also makes a document. Its properties panel has an Export section with three formats.
Generate PDF
Builds a PDF of the whole publication — every page of the navigation, in order, as chapters. Use it for a report, a handbook, or anything that has to be sent as a file or printed.
Export Markdown
The publication as Markdown text. Use it to move content into another system, keep a copy alongside code in a repository, or hand pages to another tool.
Export Typst
The Typst source behind the PDF, for when you would rather typeset it yourself with a custom layout.
Good to know
- Exports follow the same navigation and the same per-type renderings as the website, so the document and the site cannot drift apart.
- An export renders the model's current state, not the pinned published snapshot.
- Diagrams do not yet appear in the PDF. They render on the website; PDF support for them is on the way.
- Anything that only makes sense on a website degrades to a link, or is left out of the document.
