Description

Follows https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-r/issues/51 discussions.

This could be useful waiting for such feature in Quarto.

Here, the function would just be a wrapper around pagedown::chrome_print().

Not so hard to add support for .qmd in chrome_print though, or just do

quarto::quarto_render("myslides.qmd")
pagedown::chrome_print("myslides.html")

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing R interface entry points and the issue's proposed calls to quarto::quarto_render() and pagedown::chrome_print(). Compare the wrapper's intended scope with pagedown::chrome_print() support for .qmd files; done means the agreed wrapper behavior is implemented and exercised for the relevant rendered document.
