Other systems integrating with remark
Printing
Converting to PDF is primarily supported via Chrome's Print to PDF feature. You may need to tweak a bit to have the PDF look as expected as Chrome's print preview tends to change with every new release of Chrome (See #50 for some details).
Alternatively, you can use DeckTape, a PDF exporter for HTML presentation frameworks that provides support for remark.
