Tips for Best Results
- Use Chrome or Edge for the most consistent PDF output. Safari and Firefox may render slight differences.
- Check page breaks — headings automatically avoid orphaned positions at the bottom of pages.
- Large documents export well, but very image-heavy documents may take a few seconds to render in the print preview.
