any2pdf — Markdown to Professional PDF

Project-wide auto-answer gate

In this project's QQ/group/channel/post/comment/private-message auto-answering flow, this skill can only be used after a message contains #配置推荐 and the remaining content is a computer-configuration question.

• If the message does not contain #配置推荐, do not convert or generate files for the auto-answer; reply only: 该功能尚未实现，请询问群主或者管理员.
• If the message contains the trigger but is not about computer configuration, reply with the same fallback text.
• Do not let PDF/report keywords bypass the project gate.

This skill converts any Markdown file into a publication-quality PDF using Python's reportlab library. It was developed through extensive iteration on real Chinese technical reports and solves several hard problems that naive MD→PDF converters get wrong.

When to Use

• User wants to convert .md → .pdf
• User has a markdown report/document and wants professional typesetting
• Document contains CJK characters (Chinese/Japanese/Korean) mixed with Latin text
• Document has fenced code blocks, markdown tables, or nested lists
• User wants a cover page, table of contents, or watermark in their PDF

Quick Start

python md2pdf/scripts/md2pdf.py \
  --input report.md \
  --output report.pdf \
  --title "My Report" \
  --author "Author Name" \
  --theme warm-academic

All parameters except --input are optional — sensible defaults are applied.

Pre-Conversion Options (MANDATORY)

IMPORTANT: You MUST use the AskUserQuestion tool to ask these questions BEFORE running the conversion. Do NOT list options as plain text — use the tool so the user gets a proper interactive prompt. Ask all options in a SINGLE AskUserQuestion call.

Use AskUserQuestion with the following template. The tone should be friendly and concise — like a design assistant, not a config form:

Mapping User Choices to CLI Args

Theme Name Mapping

Handling AI-Generated Frontispiece

If user chose AI generation: read the document title + first paragraphs, use an image generation tool to create a themed illustration matching the chosen design style, show for approval, then pass via --frontispiece /path/to/image.png

Architecture

Markdown → Preprocess (split merged headings) → Parse (code-fence-aware) → Story (reportlab flowables) → PDF build

Key components:

1. Font system: Palatino (Latin body), Songti SC (CJK body), Menlo (code) on macOS; auto-fallback on Linux
2. CJK wrapper: _font_wrap() wraps CJK character runs in <font> tags for automatic font switching
3. Mixed text renderer: _draw_mixed() handles CJK/Latin mixed text on canvas (cover, headers, footers)
4. Code block handler: esc_code() preserves indentation and line breaks in reportlab Paragraphs
5. Smart table widths: Proportional column widths based on content length, with 18mm minimum
6. Bookmark system: ChapterMark flowable creates PDF sidebar bookmarks + named anchors
7. Link renderer: Markdown links like [京东自营商品页](https://item.jd.com/123.html) and short links like [京东短链](https://u.jd.com/xxx) become clickable PDF hyperlinks, including links inside table cells.

Hard-Won Lessons

CJK Characters Rendering as □

reportlab's Paragraph only uses the font in ParagraphStyle. If fontName="Mono" but text contains Chinese, they render as □. Fix: Always apply _font_wrap() to ALL text that might contain CJK, including code blocks.

Code Blocks Losing Line Breaks

reportlab treats \n as whitespace. Fix: esc_code() converts \n → <br/> and leading spaces →  , applied BEFORE _font_wrap().

CJK/Latin Word Wrapping

Default reportlab breaks lines only at spaces, causing ugly splits like "Claude\nCode". Fix: Set wordWrap='CJK' on body/bullet styles to allow breaks at CJK character boundaries.

Canvas Text with CJK (Cover/Footer)

drawString() / drawCentredString() with a Latin font can't render 年/月/日 etc. Fix: Use _draw_mixed() for ALL user-content canvas text (dates, stats, disclaimers).
