## About

# Markdown to PDF Converter

Converts a markdown file to a professionally formatted PDF. Pure Python — no system tools required.

## Dependencies

Requires two Python packages (already in `pyproject.toml`):

```
mistune>=3.2
reportlab>=4.0
```

Install with: `uv sync` (or `pip install mistune reportlab`)

## Instructions

```bash
uv run python .claude/skills/markdown-to-pdf/scripts/markdown_to_pdf.py  [output.pdf]
```

- `input.md` — path to the markdown file (required)
- `output.pdf` — output path (optional; defaults to same directory and basename as input)

## Output

The script returns JSON with:
- `success` — `true` or `false`
- `input` — resolved absolute path of the input file
- `output` — resolved absolute path of the generated PDF
- `error` — error message if `success` is `false`
- `generated_at` — NY timezone timestamp
- `data_delay` — always `"real-time"`

After conversion, tell the user the output PDF path.

## Examples

```bash
# Convert sandbox/report.md → sandbox/report.pdf (default output)
uv run python .claude/skills/markdown-to-pdf/scripts/markdown_to_pdf.py sandbox/report.md

# Explicit output path
uv run python .claude/skills/markdown-to-pdf/scripts/markdown_to_pdf.py sandbox/report.md sandbox/AAPL_Report_2026-05-20_1430.pdf
```
