Pandoc
The universal markup converter
Pandoc is a universal document converter able to convert files from a multitude of markup formats into another. With Pandoc, you have a swiss-army knife of a converter, able to convert practically any markup format into any other. Pandoc contains a Haskell library for conversions as well as a command-line tool that uses this library. It can convert to and from just about anything-- lightweight markup formats, HTML formats, documentation formats, ebooks, TeX formats, word processor formats and so much more. It understands several useful markdown syntax extensions, such as document metadata, footnotes, tables, and more. If you want strict markdown compatibility however, these extensions can be turned off. Pandoc is no doubt powerful and customizable, but it is important to note that its intermediate representation of a document is less expressive than many of the formats, so it may not produce perfect conversions every time. -

Dompdf
HTML to PDF converter for PHP
dompdf is an HTML to PDF converter. At its heart, dompdf is (mostly) a CSS 2.1 compliant HTML layout and rendering engine written in PHP. It is a style-driven renderer, it will download and read external stylesheets, inline style tags, and the style attributes of individual HTML elements. It also supports most presentational HTML attributes. PDF rendering is currently provided either by PDFLib or by a bundled version the R&OS CPDF class written by Wayne Munro. (Some important changes have been made to the R&OS class, however). In order to use PDFLib with dompdf, the PDFLib PECL extension is required. Using PDFLib improves performance and reduces the memory requirements of dompdf somewhat, while the R&OS CPDF class, though slightly slower, eliminates any dependencies on external PDF libraries. -

mPDF
PHP library generating PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML
mPDF is a PHP library that generates PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML. The original author, Ian Back, wrote mPDF to output PDF files ‘on-the-fly’ from his website, handling different languages. It is slower than the original scripts e.g. HTML2FPDF and produces larger files when using Unicode fonts, but support for CSS styles etc. and has been much enhanced. Supports almost all languages including RTL (Arabic and Hebrew), and CJK (Chinese-Japanese-Korean). Nested block-level elements (e.g. P, DIV) including margins, borders, padding, line height, background colors, etc. Right-to-left languages are supported, with automatic detection of RTL characters within a document. Transposes tables, lists, text justification, and table cell alignment, as well as a full-text reversal for RTL characters. Automatically detects non-RTL characters and displays these in the original order. -

Unredact
A simple tool for reading in poorly redacted documents
Unredact is a specialized tool that attempts to reconstruct redacted or obscured text in images, PDFs, or screenshots using a combination of image processing and generative AI inference to suggest plausible completions of blurred, black-boxed, or jumbled content.

It accepts a variety of input formats, automatically identifies redacted regions, and then generates text suggestions that are presented alongside visual overlays so users can choose or refine outputs. -
