markdown-to-pdf
Most recent maintenance signal among this shortlist.
| Signal | markdown-to-pdf Convert Markdown (.md) files to a polished PDF with ALL images preserved and scaled to the page. Use whenever the user asks to "save this markdown as a PDF", "convert README.md to pdf", "export the .md as a pdf", "turn these notes/docs into a PDF", or wants a PDF deliverable of any GitHub-flavored Markdown document (README, design doc, report, notes) — especially when it contains images or diagrams (remote or local), tables, code blocks, or a linked table of contents. Pipeline: pandoc (GFM → standalone HTML with embedded resources) → headless Chrome print-to-pdf with a GitHub-like print stylesheet → pypdf verification that every referenced image is embedded. Do NOT use for .tex → PDF (use a LaTeX toolchain) or for .docx work (use word-docx / tex2docx). | PaddleOCR Turn any PDF or image document into structured data for your AI. A powerful, lightweight OCR toolkit that bridges the gap between images/PDFs and LLMs. Supports 100+ languages. | Markitdown Python tool for converting files and office documents to Markdown. |
