What engines does this skill use to create PDFs?

It uses Pandoc as the document converter and Weasyprint as the PDF rendering engine to ensure high-quality, CSS-based styling.

Can it distinguish between a research paper and a letter?

Yes, the skill features intelligent auto-detection that identifies letters based on greetings or structure and academic documents based on heading hierarchy.

Do I need to install fonts on my system?

No, the skill comes bundled with the Roboto font family, which are automatically embedded during the PDF generation process.

How do I handle signatures in formal letters?

You can include an inline HTML image tag pointing to your signature file, and the letter-style CSS will automatically format the signature block with appropriate spacing.

Is it possible to customize the styling?

Absolutely. While it provides professional defaults for academic and letter formats, you can override or extend the CSS by passing custom stylesheets to the generation script.
