+Markdown -> markdown-it-py HTML -> theme/custom CSS -> Chromium PDF

-Mermaid rendering is optional. If a local `mmdc` command exists, Mermaid blocks

-remain visible as highlighted code.
+One Chromium session renders bundled KaTeX and Mermaid, waits for fonts and
+images, and prints the PDF. No separate Mermaid CLI, Node.js installation,
+WeasyPrint, or MSYS2 setup is needed. Browser installation is an explicit setup
+step; conversion never downloads a browser.
+
+### Upgrading from 0.2.x
+
+The command name and Python API stay the same, but the PDF engine changes from
+WeasyPrint to Chromium. There is no WeasyPrint fallback. Install/check the browser,
+then render a representative document before upgrading an automated workflow.
+Page breaks, headers/footers, fonts, and custom paged-media CSS may differ.
+JSON consumers should accept the new render-method value rather than hard-code
+the old backend. See the [release notes](https://github.com/ABClize/mdtopdf/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md).

-`npx` during conversion. Run `mdtopdf doctor --json` to check whether Mermaid
-rendering is available.
+## Browser setup
 
-## Platform notes
-
-`mdtopdf` requires Python 3.10+ and installs its Python dependencies from PyPI:
-`click`, `markdown-it-py`, `mdit-py-plugins`, `pygments`, `latex2mathml`,
-`matplotlib`, `mini-racer`, and `weasyprint`.
-
-WeasyPrint also needs native libraries such as Pango, GLib, and Cairo. Linux
-and macOS package managers usually provide them through system packages.
+PDF export requires Chromium. HTML export also uses it when the document has
+math or Mermaid. Browser selection is deterministic: `MDTOPDF_BROWSER_EXECUTABLE`,
+then legacy `PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH`, then installed Playwright Chromium,
+then Chrome/Edge/Chromium on PATH or in common Windows/macOS installation folders.
+Linux also checks standard installation paths. An invalid explicit path is an error,
+not a reason to silently switch browsers. Discovery never downloads or installs anything.
 
-The default theme uses a PDFium-safe Latin-first font stack. Latin fonts are
-listed before CJK fonts so ASCII digits, dates, versions, and page numbers are
-not embedded into CJK font subsets that some Chrome/PDFium renderers handle
-poorly. Chinese text still falls back to the CJK side of the stack.
-
-For Linux containers or agent sandboxes, use open fonts that can be installed
-from the distribution package manager. The recommended baseline is:
+If no browser is available, install the managed browser once:
 
 ```shell
-sudo apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
-  fontconfig \
-  fonts-liberation \
-  fonts-dejavu-core \
-  fonts-noto-cjk \
-  fonts-stix
-fc-cache -f
+python -m playwright install chromium --no-shell
+mdtopdf doctor --render-check --json
 ```
 
-With that setup, Linux output uses `Liberation Sans` / `DejaVu Sans` for Latin
-text and digits, `Noto Sans CJK SC` for Chinese, and STIX for math fallback.
-Microsoft YaHei and Segoe UI Emoji are not Linux runtime requirements and are
-not installed or distributed by `mdtopdf`.
-
-Code blocks prefer `Cascadia Mono` / `Cascadia Code`, then `Consolas`,
-`Noto Sans Mono CJK SC`, `Liberation Mono`, and `DejaVu Sans Mono`. On Debian,
-`fonts-cascadia-code` provides Cascadia fonts; on other Linux images, provide
-Cascadia Code yourself or let the theme fall back to the installed monospace
-fonts.
-
-Emoji are rendered through the system emoji font. On Linux, prefer monochrome
-`Noto Emoji` for stable PDF layout. `Noto Color Emoji` is easier to install from
-many distro package managers and is safe to use as a fallback, but color emoji
-often render too small or misaligned in WeasyPrint/Pango/Cairo/PDFium output.
-
-On Windows, install the native libraries separately. A common MSYS2 setup is:
+`doctor --json` shows the selected path and its `tools.browser.source`.
+Use `--render-check` to verify it actually launches and renders. A browser found
+on disk can still lack required system libraries or sandbox support.
+An existing recent Chrome or Edge can be selected explicitly:
 
 ```powershell
-winget install MSYS2.MSYS2
+$env:MDTOPDF_BROWSER_EXECUTABLE = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe"
+mdtopdf doctor --render-check --json
 ```
 
-Then install Pango from an MSYS2 MINGW64 shell:
-
 ```shell
-pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-pango
+export MDTOPDF_BROWSER_EXECUTABLE="$(command -v google-chrome)"
+mdtopdf doctor --render-check --json
 ```
 
-Finally, point WeasyPrint at the DLL directory from PowerShell. Adjust the path
-if MSYS2 is installed somewhere else:
+The legacy `PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH` is accepted if the new variable is unset.
+A fresh headless session is used; your personal browser profile is never opened.
+Browser errors include an `error_code`, original message, and repair `hint`.
 
-```powershell
-setx WEASYPRINT_DLL_DIRECTORIES "C:\msys64\mingw64\bin"
-```
+## Platform notes
+
+Use Python 3.10+ and a recent Chromium browser. The Python Playwright package
+includes its driver; a separate Node.js or npm installation is not required.
+Windows and macOS no longer need an MSYS2 or Homebrew Pango setup.
 
-Run this after installation. The JSON output also reports whether recommended
-Latin, CJK, emoji, monospace, and math fallback fonts are present:
+On a supported Debian/Ubuntu environment, install Chromium's system libraries
+during setup, then provide the fonts your documents use:
 
 ```shell
-mdtopdf doctor --json
+python -m playwright install-deps chromium
+sudo apt-get update
+sudo apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
+  fontconfig fonts-liberation fonts-dejavu-core fonts-noto-cjk fonts-stix
+fc-cache -f
 ```
 
+Run conversions as a **non-root** user with working browser sandbox support.
+If Ubuntu/AppArmor blocks a downloaded browser, use an explicitly configured
+system Chrome permitted by the host policy. Do not fix this by disabling the
+sandbox. See [Playwright browser setup](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/browsers).
+
+The theme keeps Latin fonts before CJK fonts. Linux uses Liberation Sans /
+DejaVu Sans for English and digits, Noto Sans CJK SC for Chinese, and Cascadia
+Mono / Cascadia Code for code where installed (otherwise system monospace).
+Debian provides Cascadia through `fonts-cascadia-code`. Windows keeps its
+existing system font stack. Microsoft YaHei and Segoe UI Emoji are not Linux
+requirements and are never downloaded or bundled by mdtopdf.
+
+Emoji still use installed system fonts. The existing Linux preference is
+monochrome Noto Emoji, with Noto Color Emoji as a fallback. Browser rendering
+removes the old WeasyPrint pipeline, but does not make every font or emoji
+sequence identical across operating systems. Review representative PDFs.
+KaTeX includes its own math fonts; STIX is an optional math fallback.
+
+Images, CSS, and fonts may use local or remote resources. Document JavaScript
+is blocked during conversion, even with `--unsafe-html`; this is not a
+filesystem or network sandbox. Use restricted filesystem/network permissions
+for untrusted documents. Raw HTML exported with `--unsafe-html` remains trusted
+content when opened elsewhere.
