# Quick-start Guide

### Set up our first Print Format with Betterprint

Create a new Print Format and Check "Custom Format". This will reveal a new Checkbox, "Generate PDF using Frappe Betterprint".

{% hint style="info" %}
Enabling Frappe Betterprint will enable various defaults:

* Preview will be rendered in Pages with automatic page breakes
* PDF generation by Chromium based renderer
* Enable dynamic header & footer
  {% endhint %}

Make sure to check both of these aswell as wkhtmltopdf as pdf gernatetor (important!):

### Time to add some content

Frappe Betterprint is based on Jinja Print formats with modern CSS support and dynamic header and footer.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Frappes repeated header & footer won't work in Frappe Betterprint. In order to add header & footer, please refere to [dynamic header & footer article](https://frappe-betterprint.gitbook.io/docs/usage-reference/dynamic-header-and-footer) in the docs
