PDF processing and analysis with open-source tools
There’s even a library for php (https://github.com/thiagoalessio/tesseract-ocr-for-php). Haven’t used it. I did used python Pytesseract & works fairly well.
- Laravel OCR?

What are my options for extracting text from photos? I've already got ImageMagick installed, and assume there's a handful of PHP libraries for this task? Which are most performant and most likely to be maintained?
Depends on how consistent and legible the images are. If you've got, say, a scanned page with black-on-white text, it will work fairly well with PHPOCR (http://phpocr.sourceforge.net/) or https://github.com/thiagoalessio/tesseract-ocr-for-php.

CSS for Printing to Paper
You don't _have_ to use a browser. I had very good results with Weasyprint [0]. And there's also PrinceXML [1] if you're willing to pay.

Show HN: A new open-source library to design PDF using React
Thanks for your answer! I imagined you would be using PrinceXML behind the scenes since that is probably the gold standard in HTML+CSS rendering.
The only open source alternative I know of is WeasyPrint at https://weasyprint.org/. I'm not sure how well it fares against PrinceXML, though.
And thanks for the pointer to Taffy - I didn't know it before!

Htmldocs: Typeset and Generate PDFs with HTML/CSS
Flexbox support has been [included][1] since 2018, although my use case was the prototypical one - a single row w/ 3 columns - so YMMV with how it handles more complex layouts.

How to Simply Generate a PDF From HTML in Symfony With WeasyPrint
Performance is not the strength of WeasyPrint, meaning that heavy HTML files will increase generation time. You should always compress images before attaching them, as they are not compressed by default. Generating a 50-page-long PDF may take up to a minute in extreme cases, although multi-page documents generated on my project take fewer than 2 seconds to generate.

The Gemini protocol seen by this HTTP client person (curl dev)
Well yes, but you can implement HTML+CSS. WeasyPrint did from scratch, and independent implementations of HTML+CSS are considerably more numerous than HTML+CSS+JS.

Library to convert HTML to pdf in Golang
In a recent project I used https://github.com/Kozea/WeasyPrint/ it is written in python, so you will need to use it like so:

RE: If you had to pick a library from another language (Rust, JS, etc.) that isn’t currently available in Python and have it instantly converted into Python for you to use, what would it be?
You should maybe check out weasyprint. https://weasyprint.org/
