Print Pages

You can control what parts of the pages are printed using the print option. VitePress will show the whole page by default, excluding carbon-ads.

Any page with Frontmatter configuration will override the global configuration, for example, the navbar will be hidden when the page containing navbar: false.

VitePress has the screen-only class to hide elements when printing, you can use it in any component, html or Markdown html content.

  themeConfig: {
    // or `print: false` to print only the main content

      footer: true
