Scripts

Files in /scripts render and convert the .typ and .tex files in /assets to various formats:

• low + high-res PNG
• PDF
• SVG

To run the scripts requires the following dependencies:

• pdf-compressor (pip install pdf-compressor)
• gs (GhostScript) (optional, worse compression but needs no API key so less setup than pdf-compressor)
• pdf2svg (brew install pdf2svg)
• convert (part of ImageMagick)
• pngquant (brew install pngquant)
• zopflipng (brew install zopfli)

To run pdf-compressor directly or to use it as part of the render-(typst|tikz).py pipeline, you need a free public API key from https://developer.ilovepdf.com. Pass it to pdf-compressor with:

pdf-compressor --set-api-key project_public_7c854a9db0...
