FAQPage Schema
How do I render brain pages to publication-quality PDFs?

Render brain pages to publication-quality PDFs by supplying the page slug to the renderer. The Skill strips YAML frontmatter and applies running headers and page numbers to produce a presentation-ready document.

What's the best way to remove YAML frontmatter when generating PDFs from brain pages?

Removing YAML frontmatter during PDF generation is handled automatically by the renderer before applying running headers and page numbers, ensuring the final publication-quality document contains only the intended body content.

Do I need gstack installed to convert brain pages into PDFs?

Yes, gstack is required to convert brain pages into PDFs. The gstack make-pdf binary must be installed at $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/make-pdf/dist/pdf for the rendering process to execute successfully.

Can I add running headers and page numbers to brain page PDFs?

Yes, running headers and page numbers are automatically applied to brain page PDFs during rendering. This formatting creates a polished, presentation-ready document suitable for sharing with stakeholders.

Why does my brain page PDF rendering fail even when the page exists?

Brain page PDF rendering fails if the gstack make-pdf binary is missing from the expected $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/make-pdf/dist/pdf path, or if the renderer cannot validate the existence of the specified brain page slug.

When do I need to render brain content as a printable document?

Render brain content as a printable document when you need to share long-form notes with stakeholders while keeping the brain page as the source of truth, producing a polished PDF for presentation or distribution.
