Encountered an issue with CSS rendering for PDF files on Gitbook

I was able to use my CSS to customize the design of my Gitbook website.
However, I struggled with implementing CSS for the PDF version.

When I applied the same CSS used for the website to the PDF, the results were not consistent.
It seemed like the CSS for the PDF was not functioning properly.

In my book.json, I included the following:

"plugins": ["styles-sass", "image-captions"],
"styles": {
    "website": "styles/website.scss",
    "pdf": "styles/pdf.scss"
}

The content of my pdf.scss file is as follows:

.book {
    .book-body {
        .page-wrapper {
            .page-inner {
                section.normal {
                    h1 {
                        text-align: center;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Can you confirm if I set this up correctly?
If you have any examples or samples of a pdf.css file, please share them with me.

Answer №1

I successfully tackled this issue.
Within Gitbook's default settings, the reference leads to 

/home/<UserName>/.gitbook/versions/2.6.7/theme/assets/ebook/pdf.css
.
Upon investigation, I came across 
.section.toc>h1{text-align:center;}
within this file.
To address this, I created style/pdf.scss with the following code, which resolved the issue.

.section {
    &.toc {
        >h1 {
            text-align:right;
        }
    }
}

By utilizing the above stylesheet, table contents titles are aligned to the right.
Furthermore, this style can be applied consistently throughout the document.

Many thanks for the assistance!
