PDF Export

Note: I've included a PDF version of the talk at dbs_and_devs_talk.pdf.

Presentations can be exported to PDF via a special print stylesheet. This feature requires that you use Google Chrome or Chromium. Here's an example of an exported presentation that's been uploaded to SlideShare: http://www.slideshare.net/hakimel/revealjs-300.

1. Open your presentation with print-pdf included anywhere in the query string. This triggers the default index HTML to load the PDF print stylesheet (css/print/pdf.css). You can test this with lab.hakim.se/reveal-js?print-pdf.
2. Open the in-browser print dialog (CMD+P).
3. Change the Destination setting to Save as PDF.
4. Change the Layout to Landscape.
5. Change the Margins to None.
6. Click Save.
