+// Regression guard for google/docsy#2638: the `_print` output format did not
+// respect `relativeURLs = true`, so printable pages emitted absolute (root-
+// relative) asset URLs while the rest of the site emitted relative ones. This
+// broke offline/local viewing of `_print/*` (missing CSS, JS, and images) and
+// local HTML-to-PDF conversion.
+//
+// Mechanism: Hugo only runs its relativeURLs search-and-replace pass on output
+// formats classified as HTML (`isHTML: true`). The print format had `isHTML`
+// left unset as a workaround for gohugoio/hugo#14381 (relative *alias*
+// generation). That workaround is no longer needed: the print format sets
+// `permalinkable: false`, and Hugo only generates the aliases #14381 concerned
+// when both `isHTML` and `permalinkable` are true — so enabling `isHTML` never
+// exercises that path here.
+//
+// TDD trace: red with `isHTML` unset on the print format, green with
+// `isHTML: true` (theme/hugo.yaml). Verified on hugo-extended@0.161.1
+// (theme min is 0.160.1).
