Optimize MarkBind for saving as PDF
One area we can focus on optimizing MarkBind is saving as PDF -- as content-intensive pages might be saved as PDF. A specific use case is this textbook.
Steps:
- Save the abovementioned page as a PDF using the technique given in https://se-education.org/guides/tutorials/savingPdf.html
- Examine the PDF to locate places where the appearance can be improved
- Look into ways MarkBind can facilitate those improvements
Some examples:
Unnecessary UI elements:
Wasted space which can be avoided if we support more layout options
Not enough padding:
I think there are multiple old issues with saving as PDF. I think we can use this issue to collate and investigate all old PDF issues (and close the old one) and make a task list in this issue.
Unnecessary UI elements are not spotted when printing via Chrome. Not enough padding indeed exists.
