CLI for generating PDFs for offline reading
I've always thought that extensive reading was best suited for the realm of paper. As a result, I've created a command-line interface (CLI) tailored for my own use and decided to make it open source. I welcome any feedback you may have. [Edit] Sample PDF :: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n7M1TKOptSsYiibrbvV_Yojx53T...
In plain words
This is a command-line tool that generates PDFs optimized for offline reading. The creator built it for personal use based on the belief that extended reading is better suited to paper formats, then open-sourced the project. It's designed for developers and readers who want to convert digital content into printable PDF documents for comfortable offline consumption.

I made this because the online "make my PDF look scanned" tools want you to upload your file to their servers, which feels sketchy at best. Also, I wasn't happy with the output they produce, I wanted something that looks realistic.
