Print on paper, control page size and pagebreaks

[1beb]

@neuwirthe I use the css page model combined with weasyprint on the html version. Here's some example css, that you would include in your yaml header:

output:
  tufte::tufte_html:
    css: your_file.css

It does the following:

• prints in landscape
• forced page break on h1, h2 (in markdown that's headings at # and ## levels)
• forces figures to stay entirely on one page
• adjusts the page sideways a little so that margin figures are displayed
• adds a copyright notice and page numbering to every page, other than the first.

@media print {
  body {
    background-image: none;
    padding-left:0.75cm;
    width: 100%;
  }

  /* table {
    margin-top: 15px;
    width: auto;
    max-width: 100%;
  } */

  /* td {
    padding:0 3px;
  } */ 

  h1, h2 {
    margin:0 0 0.25cm 0;
    page-break-before: always;
  }

  .figure {
    page-break-inside: avoid;
  }

  @page {
    margin: 1cm 0.75cm 1cm 0.75cm;
  }

  @page :first{
    margin:0;
    @bottom-left {content: "";}
    @bottom-right {content: "";}
  }

  @page {
    size: landscape; 
    @bottom-left {
      content: "© My Special Company";
    }
    @bottom-right {
      content: counter(page);
    }
  }  
}

Step 1. Knit
Step 2. Review html
Step 3. python -m weasyprint your_file.html ~/path/to/pdf.pdf

I'd just use tufte::tufte_handout instead.
