Copy and print
Copy with formatting
Section titled “Copy with formatting”Select text in editing mode and press Ctrl+C. Etonym copies two versions at once:
- Markdown, for plain-text places such as a terminal, a code editor or a chat box.
- Formatted text, for email and word processors, with headings, lists, tables and links.
Each app picks the version it understands. In the formatted version, tasks become ☐ and ☑, images become their description, wikilinks become their label, and comments and embeds are left out. Frontmatter at the top of the note is left out too, and footnote markers such as [^1] stay as written. Only web and mail links stay links.
Copy a whole note as Markdown
Section titled “Copy a whole note as Markdown”In reading view (Ctrl+E), press Ctrl+C with nothing selected. Etonym copies the whole note as Markdown and shows Copied the note as Markdown. This works wherever the focus is, such as on the file tree, except in a text field or a dialog. With a selection, it copies the selected text as you see it.
Press Ctrl+P, or run Print note from the command palette. Etonym lays out the whole note in the light theme with images and diagrams, and shows a print preview in its window. Pick the Printer and options there, then choose Print, or Cancel to go back. Print using system dialog… opens the Windows print dialog instead. Panels and buttons are not printed.
The printed pages have no headers or footers: no date, window title or page numbers.
To save a PDF, pick a PDF printer, such as Microsoft Print to PDF, as the Printer. Etonym has no export command of its own.
