You can use disable
or disableOnServe
options to disable the pdf rendering (entirely or on serve) but you can also
use the mkdocs serve --dirtyreload
flag to only rebuild modified files on the fly.
Due to a chrome bug a blank page can appear at the end of the PDF you can remove it by addin the following to you extra.css :
body {
contain: strict;
}
This plugin was inspired by mkdocs-with-pdf
and mkdocs-pdf-export-plugin
but without using weasyprint
and instead pyppeteer
(chrome headless) to have a render
closer to what you have in your chrome browser.
