PDF artifacts
SkillDocs & knowledgeBuild, revise, or manipulate a fixed-layout PDF (report, guide, one-pager, printable document). Use whenever a build task's artifact kind is pdf, a document build's output format is pdf, or the task reads, merges, splits, crops, or fills an existing PDF, including fillable AcroForms. Covers authoring the print-CSS HTML source, rendering, the geometry and validation gates, existing-PDF manipulation and form filling, and delivery under workspace/your_files.

What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by win4r/museai-skills in opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/pdf/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
A PDF is authored as HTML with print CSS and rendered through the
shared capture engine. The kept source under .src/ is the editable truth
for every future revision; the PDF binary is always regenerated, never
patched.
| Task | Read first |
|---|---|
| Any PDF build or edit | /opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/pdf/references/workflow.md (the workflow: authoring, render, gates, validation loop) |
| Design and layout | /opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/pdf/references/visual.md |
| What the words say: outline, headings, tone, the prose read-back | /opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/references/prose.md (shared) |
| The document plots data | /opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/references/charts.md (shared) |
| Read, merge, split, or extract from an existing PDF; fill a PDF form | /opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/pdf/references/existing-pdfs.md |
Scripts
| Script | What it does |
|---|---|
/opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/scripts/render_audit.mjs (shared) | Renders the HTML source to PDF and PNGs and runs the render gates; workflow.md names the flags |
/opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/scripts/validate_pdf.sh | Integrity, page metadata, data-URI embedding, full rasterization; run until it passes |
Verification
Follow /opt/hatch/skills/artifacts/testing/SKILL.md: run the gates, then read every
validation PNG before returning a link.
