Use this command to install WinPrint:

WinPrint is a modern source code and text printing application designed to provide cross-platform terminal UI and Windows/macOS GUI capabilities. Its core function is to format and print source code, HTML, Markdown, and ANSI-encoded text with precision and style.

Key Features:

  • Syntax Highlighting: Prints source code in hundreds of programming languages with syntax highlighting and line numbering.
  • Markdown Support: Converts Markdown files into formatted documents, including headings, lists, blockquotes, code blocks, and Mermaid diagrams (rendered via mermaid.ink or in-process).
  • HTML Rendering: Displays HTML files as formatted documents with proper structure and styling.
  • ANSI Decoding: Renders ANSI-encoded text and colorized console captures (.ans/.ansi) by decoding escape sequences.
  • Customizable Formatting: Offers complete control over page formatting, including headers, footers, margins, fonts, and orientation. Headers and Footers support detailed macros with rich date/time formatting.
  • Sheet Definitions: Saves frequently used print job settings for easy reuse.
  • Print Preview: Provides accurate print preview in both GUI and TUI interfaces.
  • Terminal UI (wp): Features a command-line interface that displays true print previews as sixel/kitty graphics, enabling users to page through documents, zoom, pan, and switch sheet definitions directly in the terminal.
  • Cross-Platform Support: Available on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Installable via winget for Windows.

Audience & Benefit: Ideal for developers, technical writers, educators, and enterprises seeking a precise tool to format and print source code, web pages, and reports generated by legacy systems. WinPrint enables users to produce professional-looking documents with syntax highlighting, markdown support, multiple pages-up printing, headers/footers, and cross-platform compatibility.

GitHub Release

WinPrint

A modern take on the classic source code printing app from 1988.

Advanced source code, html, markdown, and text file printing for terminals (all platforms) and Windows/macOS GUIs.

Features

  • Beautifully Prints:
    • Source code in hundreds of programming languages with syntax highlighting and line numbering.
    • HTML files.
    • Markdown files as formatted documents (headings, lists, blockquotes, code blocks, mermaid diagrams, and inline images).
    • ANSI-encoded text and colorized console captures (.ans/.ansi), decoding ANSI escape sequences to color.
  • Saves trees printing "multiple-pages-up" on one piece of paper.
  • Complete control over page formatting options, including headers and footers, margins, fonts, page orientation, etc.
  • Headers and Footers support detailed file and print information macros with rich date/time formatting.
  • Sheet Definitions make it easy to save settings for frequent print jobs.
  • Accurate print preview in the GUI and TUI.
  • wp provides a rich command line interface (CLI) on Windows, macOs, and Linux

Terminal UI (wp)

The wp terminal UI renders true print previews as sixel/kitty graphics, without leaving the terminal: page through a document, zoom in, pan with the mouse, switch sheet definitions, and open another file.

How to turn Markdown into a PDF

One command, every platform. Markdown goes in; a formatted, paginated PDF comes out: headings, lists, tables, images, syntax-highlighted code, and ```mermaid fences rendered as real diagrams (fully in-process by default — no network — or via mermaid.ink with the opt-in service backend):

wp print mermaid.md --pdf mermaid.pdf --sheet "Proportional 1-Up"

Prefer a real print queue? Point --printer at any print-to-PDF queue instead:

# Windows — the built-in "Microsoft Print to PDF"
wp print mermaid.md --printer "Microsoft Print to PDF" --sheet "Proportional 1-Up"

# macOS — install a virtual PDF printer once (brew install --cask rwts-pdfwriter), add it in
# Printers & Scanners named "CUPS-PDF"; the PDF lands in /var/spool/pdfwriter/$USER/
wp print mermaid.md --printer "CUPS-PDF" --sheet "Proportional 1-Up"

# Linux — sudo apt install printer-driver-cups-pdf (queue name "PDF" on Debian/Ubuntu;
# confirm with lpstat -p; Fedora is often "Cups-PDF"). PDF lands in ~/PDF/
wp print mermaid.md --printer "PDF" --sheet "Proportional 1-Up"

Shown: testfiles/mermaid.md, one fence per mermaid diagram type, printed from the shell and opened in a viewer. The GIF is recorded on Windows; the macOS and Linux commands produce the same PDF. On Linux prefer --pdf when you only need a file — stock cups-pdf may re-encode through Ghostscript; mermaid rasters still survive. Linux & WSL printing.

Installation

Windows

Install with winget — one command gives you both the GUI and the wp terminal UI:

winget install Kindel.WinPrint

Or download the signed installer Kindel.WinPrint-win-x64-Setup.exe from the latest release and run it. (On new releases SmartScreen may say it "isn't commonly downloaded"; that's a reputation check, not a signing problem; the publisher reads Kindel, LLC. See the Installation Guide.)

macOS

brew tap kindel/winprint
brew install winprint          # WinPrint GUI app — also bundles the `wp` terminal UI

Linux

brew install kindel/winprint/wp   # `wp` terminal UI (the GUI is Windows/macOS only)

CUPS setup, cups-pdf, network IPP printers, and WSL notes: Linux & WSL printing.

See the Installation Guide for detailed instructions, prerequisites, and upgrade/uninstall steps.

Getting Started

Launch the TUI:

wp

Launch the GUI on Windows or macOS:

wp gui

You can also find WinPrint in the Start Menu (Windows) or via Spotlight (macOS).
