This tool converts Markdown documents (with some additional LaTeX-inspired tags) to professional-looking PDF documents, mostly targeted towards software specs and documentation.
Based on the awesome pdfmake tool, which is itself based on pdfkit.
The source repository contains sample documents in the sample/ folder.
This includes a manual that highlights most of the available features. The output for this document can be found in the root folder (see manual.pdf).
Configuration is read from makepdf.json, unless an argument is specified on the command line.
Refer to the PDF manual for the configuration format.
Some ideas for improvement:
.js files with conventional naming (or defined in the config file) for e.g. headers and footers, adding table styles, post-processing headings, tables, etc. or a hook for the entire document.FAQs
