KNELPDF

Fleet document-generation image: pandoc + texlive (xetex/luatex) + DejaVu and Noto fonts, built for the TSYS Group agent fleet. Runs markdown → PDF with full unicode support (box-drawing org charts, tables, code blocks).

Status

• Built locally as knelpdf:v1 on the COO workstation (2026-09-07).
• Remote not yet created — Gitea pushes are blocked by the 2026-09-07 box incident (gitea receive-pack 500s, see Redmine #937). When infra recovers: create repo KNEL/KNELPDF on git.knownelement.com, push, and cross-link the Redmine ticket + Discourse doc here (links land at birth per house rules).

Usage

# markdown -> PDF (xelatex engine, landscape, DejaVu mono keeps box-drawing)
docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/data" knelpdf:v1 \
  pandoc /data/input.md -o /data/output.pdf \
  --pdf-engine=xelatex \
  -V geometry:landscape -V geometry:margin=2cm \
  -V mainfont="DejaVu Sans" -V monofont="DejaVu Sans Mono"

The image has NO entrypoint (fleet rule) — invoke tools directly: pandoc, xelatex, lualatex.
