How to convert SVGs containing text to a PDF?
I still haven't needed to do that part in Rust yet, unfortunately. My mother is still using the pypdf-based concatenator I wrote for her years ago.

Any good tutorials for working with pdfs in Rust?
As other posters have said, if you're just generating PDFs, that's doable with minor library support. If you want to open existing PDFs and do anything non-trivial with them, you'll want a mature, powerful PDF parsing library. PDFKit, which is part of macOS is pretty amazing. If you need portability, something like Python's PyPDF2 is probably the best bet. Knowing the Rust community, though, we'll probably get a library at least as good in Rust in a surprisingly short amount of time.

PyPDF4 merger not merging pdf's - what am I doing wrong?
Why are you using PyPDF4 which seems to have no active maintainer and no documentation instead of PyPDF2 which has both?

The Pdfalyzer is a tool for visualizing the inner tree structure of a PDF in large and colorful diagrams as well as scanning its internals for suspicious content
Feel free. I poked around the PyPDF2 code and it seems like reading signatures is something it supports via xfa_form property (GitHub issue where this was discussed; seems to have been closed v. recently) . would probably be a very simple PR provided you knew where to look for that property.
