Thank you! Paged.js is really such an awesome tool.

I was searching for many weeks for something like this, so I really think the word needs to get out there more. It could significantly improve the workflows of many people who are self writing / self publishing as it opens up the power of CSS and HTML (which allows to nicely defined formatting templates and use code to automate content generation) to pdf reports (which I think has its place).

I haven’t used pandoc, but I think a HTML/CSS/Paged.js workflow could challenge it.

At work I’m already converting many processes to it - I have a database of content and then use SQL queries to extract data and then generate beautiful PDFs through paged.js.

It also works well with mathematical typesetting (via MathJax).
