Which to use Print Format designer or Print Designer in ERPNext 15

First thing I want to know is what should I use for creating Print Formats in ERPNext 15? Should I use the default Print Format designer or the newer Print Designer?

On checking the GitHub repository of Print Designer. But the steps shown to setting it up says that it needs to be setup on a separate site.

From what I understand each site is independent of other sites and cannot access data of other sites.

So if we install Print Designer as instructed in the repository how will I be able to access the site in which ERPNext is setup and build print formats for it?

Finally how will the design format created in Print Designer be visible to users when they are trying to print a document?

@maharshivpatel Can you please guide me here.

@YogiYang you can install it on the same site. instructions are just for having local setup it doesn’t mean you need separate site, Thank you
