The app, crates, binaries, bundle id, packaging, icons, screenshots and docs are now PdfCraft / pdfcraft (repo storytold/pdfcraft). On first launch the desktop app moves the PrintCraft settings and crash-recovery folders to the new name, and both apps read settings saved under the old storage key, so upgrades keep recent files, preferences and unsaved work. The signing test fixtures keep their PrintCraft subject names (they are binary). Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Layer L4: printing (execution plan M10.5).
let pages = select_pages(count, Some("1-3, ii, 9-"), &labels, Subset::All, false)?;
let settings = Settings { pages, paper: PAPERS[0].1, layout: Layout::multiple(4), ..Default::default() };
let sheets = layout(&display_sizes, &settings)?; // geometry only (previews)
let pdf = impose(&doc, &settings)?; // the print-ready PDF
spool::submit(&pdf, &spool::Job { printer: None, copies: 2, ..Default::default() })?;
- Size: fit (to the sheet minus an 18 pt margin), actual size, shrink oversized, custom %; centred; auto orientation turns the sheet for landscape pages.
- Multiple: 2/4/6/9/16 (or any n) pages per sheet, horizontal/vertical (reversed) order, page borders, auto-rotation of pages that don't match the cell.
- Booklet: saddle-stitch imposition padded to a multiple of 4; both sides, front or back only; left or right binding.
- Poster: tile scale, overlap shared by neighbouring tiles, cut marks.
- Comments & forms: document, + markups, + stamps, or form fields only; annotations print only with their Print flag, drawn from their appearance streams (Algorithm 8.1).
Each source page becomes a Form XObject (its content wrapped in q/Q, plus the printable annotations); sheets place them with a clip. The result is a fresh, unencrypted, garbage-collected file (callers check the print permission).
spool talks to CUPS (lpstat -p -d, lp with copies, collation, duplex and monochrome
options). Other platforms report that printing to a printer isn't available yet; the
print-ready PDF can always be saved.
Not yet: Windows and web spoolers, print as image, poster labels, PostScript output, colour conversion for grayscale.
