<p>Screenshot of the note contextual menu indicating the “Export as PDF”
option.</p>
<p>On the desktop application of Trilium it is possible to export a note
as PDF. On the server or PWA (mobile), the option is not available due
to technical constraints and it will be hidden.</p>
<p>To print a note, select the
<img src="1_Export as PDF_image.png">button to the right of the note and select <em>Export as PDF</em>.</p>
<p>Afterwards you will be prompted to select where to save the PDF file.</p>
<h2>Automatic opening of the file</h2>
<p>When the PDF is exported, it is automatically opened with the system default
application for easy preview.</p>
<p>Note that if you are using Linux with the GNOME desktop environment, sometimes
the default application might seem incorrect (such as opening in GIMP).
This is because it uses Gnome's “Recommended applications” list.</p>
<p>To solve this, you can change the recommended application for PDFs via
this command line. First, list the available applications via <code>gio mime application/pdf</code> and
then set the desired one. For example to use GNOME's Evince:</p><pre><code class="language-text-x-trilium-auto">gio mime application/pdf</code></pre>
<h2>Reporting issues with the rendering</h2>
<p>Should you encounter any visual issues in the resulting PDF file (e.g.
a table does not fit properly, there is cut off text, etc.) feel free to
<a
href="#root/_help_wy8So3yZZlH9">report the issue</a>. In this case, it's best to offer a sample note (click
on the
<img src="1_Export as PDF_image.png">button, select Export note → This note and all of its descendants → HTML
in ZIP archive). Make sure not to accidentally leak any personal information.</p>
<h2>Landscape mode</h2>
<p>When exporting to PDF, there are no customizable settings such as page
orientation, size, etc. However, it is possible to specify a given note
to be printed as a PDF in landscape mode by adding the <code>#printLandscape</code> attribute
to it (see&nbsp;<a class="reference-link" href="#root/_help_zEY4DaJG4YT5">Attributes</a>).</p>
<h2>Page size</h2>
<p>By default, the resulting PDF will be in Letter format. It is possible
to adjust it to another page size via the <code>#printPageSize</code> attribute,
with one of the following values: <code>A0</code>, <code>A1</code>, <code>A2</code>, <code>A3</code>, <code>A4</code>, <code>A5</code>, <code>A6</code>, <code>Legal</code>, <code>Letter</code>, <code>Tabloid</code>, <code>Ledger</code>.</p>

<h2>Printing</h2>
<p>This feature allows printing of notes. It works on both the desktop client,
but also on the web.</p>
<p>Note that not all note types are printable as of now. We do plan to increase
the coverage of supported note types in the future.</p>
<p>To print a note, select the

on the size and type of the note, this can take up to a few seconds. Afterwards
you will be redirected to the system/browser printing dialog.</p>

</ul>
<h2>Under the hood</h2>
<p>Both printing and exporting as PDF use the same mechanism: a note is rendered
individually in a separate webpage that is then sent to the browser or
the Electron application either for printing or exporting as PDF.</p>
<p>The webpage that renders a single note can actually be accessed in a web
browser. For example <code>http://localhost:8080/#root/WWRGzqHUfRln/RRZsE9Al8AIZ?ntxId=0o4fzk</code> becomes <code>http://localhost:8080/?print#root/WWRGzqHUfRln/RRZsE9Al8AIZ</code>.</p>
<p>Accessing the print note in a web browser allows for easy debugging to
understand why a particular note doesn't render well. The mechanism for
rendering is similar to the one used in&nbsp;<a class="reference-link"
