I tried something like that but ended up going with markdown -> html -> puppeteer to generate an A4 pdf -> ghostscript to compress it.

It’s an ugly script that’s been working quite well for more than a decade, but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone other than myself.

I have a very similar homegrown mess. I wonder how many of us there are doing the same thing for this use case.

By looking at this thread, quite a few. The problem is creating a solution that would fit all of our idiosyncrasies.

For example, in my code, if a table has the class “total” it sums all <td>s which contains a dollar sign, and so on.
