Export to PDF, Word, and ePub
Export to PDF, Word, and ePub
Publishing makes a website; export makes a document. Any note — or a whole group — can leave Lettuce as PDF, HTML, Word (.docx), or ePub.
Export one note
File → Export → PDF / HTML / Word / ePub — pick a destination and you’re done. PDF and HTML are rendered natively with the same reader styling you see in the app (callouts, code, math, diagrams included).
Export a group as one document
Right-click a group in the sidebar → Export Group as → … to bind every note under that folder (nested ones too, in sidebar order) into a single document — a group is a manuscript. PDF inserts a page break between notes; HTML separates them with a rule; Word/ePub read as continuous chapters. The file is named after the group.
Word and ePub need pandoc
PDF and HTML are built in. .docx and ePub conversion uses pandoc (brew install pandoc) — the menu items are simply disabled until it’s installed.
