Primarily distributed/run as a container image

Go

Athenapdf

CliDockerServer

Docker-packaged drop-in alternative to wkhtmltopdf: a CLI (`athenapdf`, built on Electron) for direct HTML-to-PDF conversion with an 'aggressive mode' that strips page clutter, plus a `weaver` HTTP microservice (Go) for running conversions as a scalable, Kubernetes/AWS-ECS-deployable service.

CliDockerGuiLibraryPlugin

Translates scientific PDF documents while preserving layout, formulas, charts, tables of contents, and annotations; supports Google Translate, DeepL, Ollama, OpenAI, and other translation backends via CLI, GUI, Docker, or a Zotero plugin, with batch/directory translation and partial-document translation.
