## Cover Page Template

### cover.html

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <style>
        body {
            font-family: "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif;
            text-align: center;
            padding-top: 200px;
        }
        .logo {
            max-width: 200px;
            margin-bottom: 50px;
        }
        h1 {
            font-size: 48px;
            color: #333;
            margin-bottom: 20px;
        }
        .subtitle {
            font-size: 24px;
            color: #666;
            margin-bottom: 100px;
        }
        .version {
            font-size: 18px;
            color: #999;
        }
        .date {
            font-size: 14px;
            color: #999;
            margin-top: 10px;
        }
        .footer {
            position: absolute;
            bottom: 50px;
            width: 100%;
            text-align: center;
            color: #666;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <img src="logo.png" alt="Company Logo" class="logo">
    <h1>{{title}}</h1>
    <p class="subtitle">{{subtitle}}</p>

</body>
</html>
```

## Multi-Chapter Assembly

### build-manual.js

```javascript
const pandoc = require('pandoc');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

async function buildManual(config) {
  const chapters = [
    { title: 'Getting Started', files: ['intro.md', 'installation.md', 'quickstart.md'] },
    { title: 'User Guide', files: ['configuration.md', 'features.md', 'advanced.md'] },
    { title: 'API Reference', files: ['api/*.md'] },
    { title: 'Appendix', files: ['glossary.md', 'changelog.md'] }
  ];

  // Combine all Markdown files
  let combined = '';

  for (const chapter of chapters) {
    combined += `# ${chapter.title}\n\n`;

    for (const filePattern of chapter.files) {
      const files = glob.sync(filePattern, { cwd: config.docsDir });
      for (const file of files) {
        const content = fs.readFileSync(path.join(config.docsDir, file), 'utf8');
        // Adjust heading levels
        const adjusted = adjustHeadings(content, 1);
        combined += adjusted + '\n\n';
      }
    }
  }

  // Write combined file
  const tempFile = '/tmp/combined.md';
  fs.writeFileSync(tempFile, combined);

  // Run Pandoc
  await pandoc({
    input: tempFile,
    output: config.outputPath,
    args: [
      '--defaults', config.pandocDefaults,
      '--metadata-file', config.metadataFile
    ]
  });

  return { output: config.outputPath };
}
```

## PDF/A Compliance

### Generate Archival PDF

```bash
# Using Pandoc with PDF/A output
pandoc input.md \
  -o output.pdf \
  --pdf-engine=xelatex \
  -V 'pdfa=1b' \
  --include-in-header=pdfa-header.tex

# pdfa-header.tex
\usepackage{hyperref}
\hypersetup{
    pdfstartview=,
    colorlinks=false,
    pdfpagelayout=SinglePage
}
\usepackage[a-1b]{pdfx}
```

## Workflow

1. **Collect sources** - Gather Markdown files
2. **Preprocess** - Handle includes and variables
3. **Convert** - Transform Markdown to intermediate format
4. **Apply template** - Add styling and structure
5. **Generate TOC** - Build table of contents
6. **Render PDF** - Output final PDF
7. **Optimize** - Compress images and fonts

## Dependencies

```json
{
  "devDependencies": {
    "pandoc": "^0.2.0",
    "weasyprint": "via pip",
    "puppeteer": "^21.0.0",
    "pdf-lib": "^1.17.0"
  }
}
```

### System Dependencies

```bash
# macOS
brew install pandoc
brew install --cask basictex
pip install weasyprint

# Ubuntu
sudo apt install pandoc texlive-xetex texlive-fonts-recommended
pip install weasyprint

# Windows (via Chocolatey)
choco install pandoc miktex
pip install weasyprint
```

## CLI Commands

```bash
# Single file with Pandoc
pandoc input.md -o output.pdf --defaults pandoc-defaults.yaml

# Multiple files combined
pandoc docs/*.md -o manual.pdf --toc --number-sections

# Using WeasyPrint
weasyprint input.html output.pdf -s style.css

# Using Puppeteer (for HTML-based PDFs)
node generate-pdf.js --input docs/ --output manual.pdf
```

## Best Practices Applied

- Use vector graphics when possible
- Optimize images for print (300 DPI)
- Include page numbers and headers
- Generate hyperlinked TOC
- Handle page breaks for code blocks
- Embed fonts for consistency
- Test on different PDF readers
