I built gen-pdf to solve a problem I kept running into: getting AI to generate professional-looking PDFs.
The problem: there is no AI native tool that generate PDF.
My solution: A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets any AI assistant generate TeX-quality PDFs from markdown. Using a rust Typst server under the hood, the MCP delivers PDF of an unmatch quality. It not the classic markdown to pdf that is using a puppeteer engine and deliver poor quality.
Just add this simple config to your mcp.json and your AI can instantly create professional reports, invoices, letters, and contracts.

{ "mcpServers": { "gen-pdf": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://gen-pdf.com/mcp"] } } }
Features: • LaTeX math expressions • Syntax highlighting • Complex tables • Images • Footnotes • Perfect layout (thanks to Typst) • Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.
The free tier gives you 20 blocks per PDF to try it out. I'm using it daily for generating client reports and technical documentation.
