slides-to-pdf

# Slides to PDF Converts a JS-driven, one-slide-per-screen HTML deck into a paginated PDF: one page per slide, matching the browser rendering, with a centred page number in the footer. There is no native "print to PDF" for such decks (printing captures only the visible slide), so the pipeline is: screenshot every slide at 2x with headless Chrome, wrap the screenshots in a print-paginated page, number them, print that to PDF, then verify the PDF by rendering it back to images. Inputs to establish up front (ask only if not obvious): - **Deck path**, the literal that marks one slide (default `<section class="slide"`), and the deck's canvas size (default 1280x720). Read the deck's own CSS to confirm both before you start; a wrong size silently letterboxes or crops every page. - **Output path**: default next to the HTML, same basename, `.pdf`. - **Chrome-only UI to hide**: for SlideOps decks this is `.hud,.progress,.hint`; for other decks, identify the fixed nav/progress elements a printed page shouldn't show. ## 1.
