Adaptive PDFs
Summary
The article introduces an adaptive PDF approach that keeps the visual document unchanged for humans while exposing structured markdown to machines. It uses a PDF replacement-text feature so text extractors can return headings, lists, tables, and clean sentences instead of raw layout coordinates. The concept is aimed at improving LLM ingestion, parsing, and summarization of documents without maintaining separate file versions. The author also notes a planned Google Docs extension and shares a proof-of-concept code repository.
