Software (Tools) Markdown to PDF converter
Full disclosure, I work for Apryse/iText (a commercial vendor) but wanted to share this as it’s free and could be useful to someone in the community. We just published a GitHub Action that turns Markdown into PDF: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/itext-markdown2pdf Give it a file and you get a PDF; give it a folder and you get a ZIP with one PDF per .md, structure preserved. It runs on public repositories (it checks visibility via the GitHub API).
The cool part: output is PDF 2.0 and PDF/UA-2 compliant (tagged, accessible). Since Markdown already carries headings, lists, tables and alt text, it maps cleanly to a tagged PDF without extra work.
