Use this skill when visual quality and design identity matter for a PDF. CREATE (generate from scratch): "make a PDF", "generate a report", "write a proposal", "create a resume", "beautiful PDF", "professional document", "cover page", "polished PDF", "client-ready document". FILL (complete form fields): "fill in the form", "fill out this PDF", "complete the form fields", "write values into PDF", "what fields does this PDF have". REFORMAT (apply design to an existing doc): "reformat this document", "apply our style", "convert this Markdown/text to PDF", "make this doc look good", "re-style this PDF". This skill uses a token-based design system: color, typography, and spacing are derived from the document type and flow through every page. The output is print-ready. Prefer this skill when appearance matters, not just when any PDF output is needed.
Why this skill is useful
Adds a full pipeline of executable scripts for generating, filling, and reformatting PDFs with specific design identities and styles.

What this skill does
minimax-pdf Three tasks. One skill. Read design/design.md before any CREATE or REFORMAT work. --- Route table User intent Route Scripts used --- --- --- Generate a new PDF from scratch CREATE palette.py → cover.py → rendercover.js → renderbody.py → merge.py Fill / complete form fields in an existing PDF FILL fillinspect.py → fillwrite.py Reformat / re-style an existing document REFORMAT reformatparse.py → then full CREATE pipeline Rule: when in doubt between CREATE and REFORMAT, ask whether the user has an existing document to start from. If yes → REFORMAT. If no → CREATE. --- Route A: CREATE Full pipeline — content → design tokens → cover → body → merged PDF.
