It looks awesome, but from the forums it doesn't appear that there is a built-in way to output direct to a pdf. I would value that feature, as options to convert html to pdf often have page boundary and formatting difficulties.

Am I missing anything, and is there a chance this feature might be added in the near term?

Plot generates SVG. There’s a variety of tools you can use to convert SVG to PDF. Plot is intended to be used on the web so I don’t think we’ll add direct to PDF rendering. (Though it’s possible that Observable might support it — Observable already supports download options that render SVG to PNG for example.)
