Docker-packaged drop-in alternative to wkhtmltopdf: a CLI (`athenapdf`, built on Electron) for direct HTML-to-PDF conversion with an 'aggressive mode' that strips page clutter like ads and navigation before rendering. Also ships a `weaver` HTTP microservice (written in Go) for running conversions as a scalable, horizontally-deployable service on Kubernetes or AWS ECS. Built on Electron/Chromium rather than the discontinued Qt WebKit engine wkhtmltopdf itself relies on.
Cog/Replicate-deployable packaging of Marker (see the separate Marker entry), converting PDFs — and EPUB, MOBI, XPS, FB2 — to Markdown via layout analysis and OCR, with table formatting and LaTeX-equation conversion carried over from the underlying Marker engine. Exists as its own entry because it's a distinct deployable artifact (a Cog container image runnable on Replicate's infrastructure) rather than a different tool — the actual conversion logic is Marker's.
CLI tool that converts GitHub-Markup-supported markup files (Markdown, Textile, etc., except roff) to PDF via wkhtmltopdf: embeds images (local/relative/remote), CodeRay syntax highlighting with a GitHub theme, custom CSS, Jekyll front-matter stripping, cover-page generation, direct wkhtmltopdf option passthrough (TOC, page numbering), and Docker support.
Self-hosted PDF layout-analysis service (choice of a VGT or LightGBM model) exposed over an HTTP API: segments and classifies page regions — text, titles, pictures, tables, and similar — as structured output rather than a flat text dump. Built by HURIDOCS, a human-rights documentation NGO, originally for processing large volumes of case files where a region's semantic type (not just its text) matters for downstream analysis. Runs as a Docker service you deploy and call, not a library you import.
PHPCLI/Docker tool that converts a Markdown resume into a responsive HTML5/CSS3 page and a matching PDF (rendered via wkhtmltopdf), with selectable visual themes and a live-reload watch mode for editing. Also generates word-frequency stats analysis of the resume content, a distinctive extra not found in most other Markdown-to-resume tools in this directory. Outputs a single self-contained HTML file with embedded styles alongside the PDF.
Translates scientific PDF documents while preserving layout, formulas, charts, tables of contents, and annotations; supports Google Translate, DeepL, Ollama, OpenAI, and other translation backends via CLI, GUI, Docker, or a Zotero plugin, with batch/directory translation and partial-document translation.
