Doc

• Use tmp/docs/ for intermediate files; delete when done.
• Write final artifacts under output/doc/ when working in this repo.
• Keep filenames stable and descriptive.

Dependencies (install if missing)

Prefer uv for dependency management. Set up a venv before installing packages.

Python packages:

uv pip install python-docx pdf2image

Environment

No required environment variables.

Rendering commands

DOCX -> PDF:

soffice -env:UserInstallation=file:///tmp/lo_profile_$$ --headless --convert-to pdf --outdir $OUTDIR $INPUT_DOCX

PDF -> PNGs:

pdftoppm -png $OUTDIR/$BASENAME.pdf $OUTDIR/$BASENAME

Bundled helper:

python3 scripts/render_docx.py /path/to/file.docx --output_dir /tmp/docx_pages

Quality expectations

• Deliver a client-ready document: consistent typography, spacing, margins, and clear hierarchy.
• Avoid formatting defects: clipped/overlapping text, broken tables, unreadable characters, or default-template styling.
• Charts, tables, and visuals must be legible in rendered pages with correct alignment.
• Use ASCII hyphens only. Avoid U+2011 (non-breaking hyphen) and other Unicode dashes.
• Citations and references must be human-readable; never leave tool tokens or placeholder strings.

Final checks

• Re-render and inspect every page at 100% zoom before final delivery.
• Fix any spacing, alignment, or pagination issues and repeat the render loop.
• Confirm there are no leftovers (temp files, duplicate renders) unless the user asks to keep them.
