## Description

This MCP server converts Markdown content to PDF documents using Playwright's Chromium browser engine and the marked library for HTML conversion. Built by Xavier Blanc, it provides two tools (pdf_from_markdown and md_to_pdf) that accept either inline Markdown content or file paths, with configurable output paths and PDF formatting options including paper size (A4, Letter, Legal) and orientation settings. The implementation features GitHub-style CSS styling for professional document appearance, graceful browser lifecycle management, and includes both CLI binaries and smoke testing capabilities, making it ideal for automated document generation workflows, report creation, and content publishing pipelines where AI assistants need reliable Markdown-to-PDF conversion.
