Print output limited to first page

[silasdavis]

I would like to use clerk to generate a PDF that can be combined into a broader data pack thingy.

I've tried printing to PDF from browsers but the browsers I have tested (Brave, Firefox) both only print a single page so it is heavily truncated.

Any idea on how I might get a
nice PDF output, or what would be required to implement such a feature?

Example:

https://github.clerk.garden/nextjournal/clerk-demo/commit/cb212b2edc64e762bcd1af56417ef9f6b2fde5b1/notebooks/data_science.html

produces:

clerk.pdf

Sorry, generating PDF is out of scope for Clerk. I recommend that you investigate other third party HTML->PDF solutions for this purpose.

I have the same issue.
The "Browser print function" does not work with Clerk.
So the html rendered by Clerk cannot be printed. (it apperas as a single page)

@behrica Yeah, there's something weird going on with the viewport in the rendered HTML. We intend to fix it, but it's also not a top priority atm.

That only the first page was printing has already been fixed with 0bf2437. I’ve added a bunch of additional print styles (see 1709741) that hide superfluous elements, improve font size, &c, and try to avoid breaking in between elements (with medium success because browser sometimes enforce their own heuristics).
