title: PrintPreview
description: |-
  The `PrintPreview` component displays a preview of printable content from a specified source URL. Use it to show users what will be printed before triggering the actual print operation.

  `PrintPreview` works in conjunction with the Print API to provide complete print functionality from preview to execution.

  Supported document types:

  - **HTML documents** (`.html`, `.htm`) - Best printing experience with full CSS styling, embedded images, and complex layouts. Use for receipts, invoices, and formatted reports.

  - **Text files** (`.txt`, `.csv`) - Plain text with basic content and tabular data support. Use for simple receipts and data exports.

  - **Image files** (`.png`, `.jpg`, `.jpeg`, `.gif`, `.bmp`, `.webp`) - Common web formats with format-specific optimizations. Use for logos, charts, QR codes, and barcodes.

  - **PDF files** (`.pdf`) - Behavior varies by platform: prints directly on iOS/desktop, but downloads to external viewer on Android. Use for complex documents and compliance requirements.
