# scientific-report-pdf

Generates a structured scientific PDF report from a JSON input file. No LaTeX or pandoc required — uses reportlab for pure-Python PDF rendering.

## Usage

```bash
python3 skills/scientific-report-pdf/scripts/scientific_report_pdf.py --input-json report.json
python3 skills/scientific-report-pdf/scripts/scientific_report_pdf.py --input-json report.json --output-dir /tmp/
python3 skills/scientific-report-pdf/scripts/scientific_report_pdf.py --describe-schema
```
