Hi there,

This is my first post to the list - many thanks to everyone on here  
for making it such a valuable resource for a TextMate beginner!

If I am writing in a Markdown document and I want to save as a PDF,  
it seems I have two options:

- Preview in textMate and then use the print dialog 'Save as PDF'  
command
- Use the MultiMarkdown 'Convert to PDF' command to go directly to PDF

What control do I have over the format of the resulting PDF if I  
generate it from the print dialog rather than the 'convert to PDF'  
command? I like the 'out of the box' look of the print dialog PDF  
better than the htmldoc-generated one, and wondered if I could do  
anything to tweak, e.g. fonts, space after headings, list  
indentation, etc.

If anyone knows of a good htmldoc intro document that is a little  
friendlier than the manpage I'd be grateful too!!

Many thanks,
Nigel
