3
+ > Convert Markdown to PDF with high-resolution Mermaid diagrams (SVG embedded in PDF output).
4
+
5
+ [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](LICENSE)
6
+
7
+
8
+ ## Why this tool
9
+
10
+ - Mermaid diagrams are rendered as SVG for PDF output by default, so diagrams stay crisp at any zoom level.
11
+ - Uses a PDF-safe Mermaid renderer config by default (`flowchart.htmlLabels=false`) to preserve diagram text in PDFs.
12
+ - Improves flowchart edge-label readability by forcing opaque label backgrounds (prevents line strike-through in PDF output).
13
+ - Auto-fallback for flowchart/graph diagrams: if SVG uses `foreignObject` labels, md2pdf can render Mermaid PDF for that diagram to preserve node text.
14
+ - Mermaid PDF rendering uses fit-to-content page bounds by default (`MERMAID_PDF_FIT=true`) so diagrams do not force full-page layout.
15
+ - Works on macOS and Linux (CLI).
16
+ - macOS Finder Quick Action support for right-click conversion.
17
+ - Configurable defaults via config file (PDF engine, margins, temp asset behavior, more).
18
+ - Cleans Mermaid temp assets by default after conversion.
19
+
20
+ ## Package layout
21
+
22
+ - `bin/`: user-facing CLI commands (`md2pdf`, Finder Quick Action installers).
23
+ - `lib/`: internal runtime helpers (Pandoc Mermaid filter + wrapper).
24
+ - `assets/`: bundled static assets (`table-style.tex`, `mermaid.config.json`).
25
+ - `scripts/`: helper scripts exposed as secondary commands.
26
+ - `tests/`: repo-only smoke tests and Mermaid samples (not published to npm).
27
+
28
+ ## Platform support
29
+
30
+ - macOS: fully supported (CLI + Finder Quick Action).
31
+ - Linux: supported for CLI conversion.
32
+ - Finder context menu integration: macOS only.
33
+
34
+ ## Install
35
+
36
+ ### 1) Install system dependencies
37
+
38
+ From repo checkout:
39
+
40
+ ```bash
41
+ ./install-system-deps.sh
42
+ ```
43
+
44
+ You need:
45
+ - `pandoc`
46
+ - a PDF engine (`xelatex` by default)
47
+ - `librsvg` / `rsvg-convert`
48
+ - `node` + `npm`
49
+ - `python3`
50
+ - Python package: `pandocfilters`
51
+
52
+ ### 2) Install md2pdf
53
+
54
+ Global npm install:
55
+
56
+ ```bash
57
+ npm i -g @dkothule/md2pdf
58
+ python3 -m pip install pandocfilters
59
+ ```
60
+
61
+ Repo-local setup:
62
+
63
+ ```bash
64
+ ./setup-local-deps.sh
65
+ ```
66
+
67
+ ## First conversion
68
+
69
+ ```bash
70
+ md2pdf /path/to/file.md
71
+ ```
72
+
73
+ Output defaults to `/path/to/file.pdf`.
74
+
75
+ Custom output:
76
+
77
+ ```bash
78
+ md2pdf /path/to/file.md -o /path/to/output.pdf
79
+ ```
80
+
81
+ ## CLI options
82
+
83
+ ```bash
84
+ md2pdf --help
85
+ md2pdf --version
86
+ md2pdf --init
87
+ md2pdf --init /path/to/config.env --force
88
+ ```
89
+
90
+ ## Where npm installs it
91
+
92
+ For global install (`npm i -g @dkothule/md2pdf`):
93
+
94
+ - package files: `$(npm prefix -g)/lib/node_modules/@dkothule/md2pdf`
95
+ - executable command: `$(npm prefix -g)/bin/md2pdf`
96
+
97
+ For local project install:
98
+
99
+ - package files: `./node_modules/@dkothule/md2pdf`
100
+ - executable shim: `./node_modules/.bin/md2pdf`
101
+
102
+ ## Configuration
103
+
104
+ `md2pdf` loads config in this order (later overrides earlier):
105
+
106
+ 1. `$HOME/.config/md2pdf/config.env`
107
+ 2. `<input-markdown-directory>/.md2pdfrc`
108
+ 3. `--config /path/to/config.env`
109
+ 4. environment variables
110
+
111
+ Initialize default config automatically:
112
+
113
+ ```bash
114
+ md2pdf --init
115
+ ```
116
+
117
+ This creates:
118
+
119
+ - `~/.config/md2pdf/config.env`
120
+
121
+ Initialize to a custom path:
122
+
123
+ ```bash
124
+ md2pdf --init ./md2pdf.config.env
125
+ ```
126
+
127
+ If target file already exists, re-run with `--force` to overwrite.
128
+
129
+ Manual template copy (optional):
130
+
131
+ ```bash
132
+ mkdir -p ~/.config/md2pdf
133
+ cp ./md2pdf.config.example ~/.config/md2pdf/config.env
134
+ ```
135
+
136
+ If installed globally from npm, template path is:
137
+
138
+ ```bash
139
+ $(npm root -g)/@dkothule/md2pdf/md2pdf.config.example
140
+ ```
141
+
142
+ Example config:
143
+
144
+ ```bash
145
+ PDF_ENGINE=xelatex
146
+ MERMAID_CONFIG=/absolute/path/to/mermaid.config.json
147
+ MERMAID_LATEX_FORMAT=svg
148
+ MERMAID_PDF_FIT=true
149
+ MERMAID_AUTO_PDF_FALLBACK=true
150
+ LR_MARGIN=0.7in
151
+ TB_MARGIN=0.5in
152
+ CLEANUP_MERMAID_ASSETS=true
153
+ MERMAID_ASSET_PREFIX=md2pdf-mermaid
154
+ ```
155
+
156
+ Useful flags:
157
+
158
+ ```bash
159
+ md2pdf input.md --config ./my-config.env
160
+ md2pdf input.md --keep-mermaid-assets
161
+ md2pdf input.md --cleanup-mermaid-assets
162
+ ```
163
+
164
+ ## Mermaid temp assets
165
+
166
+ When Mermaid blocks are present, md2pdf creates:
167
+
168
+ - `<MERMAID_ASSET_PREFIX>-<run-id>-images/`
169
+
170
+ By default, this folder is deleted after conversion (`CLEANUP_MERMAID_ASSETS=true`).
171
+
172
+ ## macOS Finder Quick Action
173
+
174
+ Install:
175
+
176
+ ```bash
177
+ md2pdf-install-finder-action
178
+ ```
179
+
180
+ Or from repo:
181
+
182
+ ```bash
183
+ ./scripts/install_md2pdf_quick_action.sh
184
+ ```
185
+
186
+ Use in Finder:
187
+
188
+ - Right click `.md` file -> `Quick Actions` -> `Convert Markdown to PDF`
189
+
190
+ Remove:
191
+
192
+ ```bash
193
+ md2pdf-uninstall-finder-action
194
+ ```
195
+
196
+ Or from repo:
197
+
198
+ ```bash
199
+ ./scripts/uninstall_md2pdf_quick_action.sh
200
+ ```
201
+
202
+ If menu entries do not refresh immediately:
203
+
204
+ ```bash
205
+ killall Finder
206
+ ```
207
+
208
+ ## Architecture and test samples
209
+
210
+ - Architecture doc: `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`
211
+ - Smoke test markdown: `tests/architecture-smoke-test.md`
212
+ - Mermaid all-diagram sample pack: `tests/samples/mermaid-all-diagram-types.md`
213
+
214
+ Run demo:
215
+
216
+ ```bash
217
+ md2pdf ./tests/architecture-smoke-test.md
218
+ ```
219
+
220
+ Run the full Mermaid sample suite:
221
+
222
+ ```bash
223
+ md2pdf ./tests/samples/mermaid-all-diagram-types.md --keep-mermaid-assets
224
+ ```
225
+
226
+ ## Publish (maintainer)
227
+
228
+ ```bash
229
+ npm login
230
+ npm pack --dry-run
231
+ npm publish
232
+ ```
233
+
234
+ Package: `@dkothule/md2pdf`
235
+
236
+ ## Troubleshooting
237
+
238
+ - `mmdc not found`: install npm deps (`./setup-local-deps.sh`) or set `MERMAID_BIN`.
239
+ - Flowchart/graph node labels missing in PDF: keep `MERMAID_AUTO_PDF_FALLBACK=true` (default) so affected SVG diagrams auto-fallback to Mermaid PDF per-diagram.
240
+ - To force pure SVG only (disable fallback): set `MERMAID_AUTO_PDF_FALLBACK=false`.
241
+ - Mermaid diagrams consuming a full page in output PDF: keep `MERMAID_PDF_FIT=true` (default) so Mermaid PDF assets use tight bounds.
242
+ - Mermaid still generating `.svg` instead of `.pdf`: check `~/.config/md2pdf/config.env` and remove/adjust `MERMAID_LATEX_FORMAT=svg`.
243
+ - PDF engine not found: install `xelatex` or set `PDF_ENGINE` to an installed engine.
244
+ - Finder Quick Action not visible: run `killall Finder`.
