Show HN: I am building a new Python library to read/write PDF files
Merely for your consideration, if those were actual issues on that repo, (a) it would allow adding labels to them (as in https://github.com/pdf-association/pdf-issues/issues?q=is%3A... ) (b) folks could comment, acting as a low-rent stackoverflow, and (c) it would allow anyone to contribute new ones versus the "PR against README.md" situation right now
That also more closely matches the mental model of those items: bugs against the specification, whether the official PDF Association agrees that they are or not

Converting markdown to pdf in Python
This method is based on the use of the libraries markdown-it-py (conversion from markdown to html) and [PyMuPDF] https://github.com/pymupdf/PyMuPDF) (conversion from html to pdf). A small Python class links them together.

Show HN: I am building a new Python library to read/write PDF files
I think you might mean PyMuPDF (https://github.com/pymupdf/PyMuPDF), a Python library built on top of the MuPDF C library (https://mupdf.com/).
PyMuPDF and MuPDF are both available under dual open source AGPL and commercial licenses. They have been around for many years and are under continual development.
[Disclaimer, i work for Artifex, who wrote MuPDF and recently acquired PyMuPDF.]
