How do you physically print Markdown files?

May sound strange, but it's been driving me nuts. Typed it out in VS Code, but there's no "Print" menu item there.

Although I no longer physically print, Pandoc is probably the way to go to generate a PDF which you can then print. I wrote some notes in markdown on my little site [0] and with Pandoc generated a PDF from the same source file [1]. I shared my Pandoc setup I used [2] and hope this might be of help to you!

You could use Pandoc [0] to render it into HTML and then open that in a browser and print it...

There's a plugin to print in VS Code. Preview your markdown and print with the plugin.

You could type it into a private Github repo and print out the formatted web page?

open the file in another editor. like notepad, word.. from there you can print.

i want to print *formatted markdown, not just the markdown text.

then use pandoc to transform from Markdown to PDF.

the PDF looks very pretty in my opinion.
