webkittopdf supported them just fine. And so does phantomjs when printing pdfs IIRC.
It's too bad webkittopdf is macOS only.
There is a wkhtml thing on Linux, but I use Phantom for this

#52A LICENSE file, please? (Though package.json does declare MIT; a LICENSE file should also allow GitHub to pick it up.)
If this is a concern, you should be asking in the right place.

#55Awesome idea. I wonder if this could be generalized to a chrome extension, to override styles on Wikipedia or whatever.
Please!!!! Unprintable web pages abound. They make my blood boil.
I've never understood why prominent websites don't always provide a print media stylesheet along with their normal styles. Hopefully frameworks like this will become more common as pages come to be viewed through increasingly diverse media (although I'm not sure "print" is on the up-and-up...)

I find it sad that what has been holding this back for years is "how will we download dictionaries": https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=605840 Especially considering LaTeX had this right for decades - and it is one of the major issues for good and pleasant readability... sigh.
I don't even understand their logic here: > Linux and Windows don't have built-in dictionaries. Every Linux distribution I've ever been on has had a dictionary. I'm not sure what package it's in, but the point is that packages exist, and can be depended on (or, although I dislike this, vendored in). (Is it perhaps that they need a dictionary with the syllabic breakdown of the word? IDK if the normal dictionaries will…
Normally /usr/share/dict/words
Def on my Mac and CentOS boxes.
Package is words.noarch for the latter.
