Print and PDF export plus a round of community-requested polish — shipped before I disappear for a few weeks of vacation. Issues and PRs will get answers when I'm back; Tinta will keep working in the meantime. 🏖️

Print & PDF (#74)

Ctrl+P (or right-click → Print / PDF) opens a print preview: flip through the paginated pages, pick A4 / Letter / Legal / A3 and portrait / landscape, then hit Print. Choose Microsoft Print to PDF and the OS produces the PDF — any real printer works the same way.

  • Vector text with fonts embedded by the print driver, including CJK — exported PDFs stay searchable and selectable
  • Always a clean light palette on a white page, whatever your screen theme
  • Mermaid diagrams and tables wider than the page scale down to fit inside the margins
  • Printing from edit mode includes unsaved changes
  • No PDF library: the Windows print pipeline does the work, binary size unchanged

Print now owns Ctrl+P everywhere; the edit-mode preview-pane toggle moved to Ctrl+E (the key Obsidian uses).

New documents open in their own window (#74)

Creating a note no longer replaces the document you were reading — it opens in a second window, slightly offset, straight into edit mode. N starts the new-file flow.

Five requests from one great report (#77)

  • Reading position memory — documents reopen where you left off; entering edit mode resumes there too instead of jumping to the top
  • Scroll sync fixed — the preview pane responds again, and the two panes can no longer drift apart
  • Instant edit mode — : no longer freezes on large documents
  • Editor horizontal scroll — long unwrapped lines are finally reachable; Shift+wheel pans sideways
  • Remappable shortcuts — settings.ini now has a self-documenting [Keys] section; the help overlay and context menu relabel themselves to your bindings
