# PDF Master Skill

Comprehensive PDF processing suite powered by Poppler and Python.

## Key Workflows
1. **Inspection & Extraction**: Use pdfplumber for table coordinates and pypdf for raw streams.
2. **Generation**: Use ReportLab with custom Platypus flowables for headers, footers, page numbering, and dynamic tables.
3. **Visual Verification**: Always render pages to PNG using pdftoppm or pdf2image, visually verify margins, fonts, and bounding boxes.
