The problem

You can spot an AI-generated document from across the room: Arial, a centred bold title, a ladder of H1/H2/H3, bullets everywhere, one saturated blue. No design decision gets made, so the default wins. And when a decision does get made once, it's repeated forever.

pdf-craft fixes both problems. It turns "make me a PDF" into a real typographic brief, and it keeps a ledger so no two documents come out in the same style.

  3. **A style ledger.** Every render is logged, and the next d
