A little more room for the whole idea.
Readable documents. Full-size ideas.
Turn Markdown, Word and
spreadsheets into PDFs
with room where it matters.
The page follows the figure.
A wide flowchart shouldn't become tiny type on a portrait page. Plate|Fold measures the figure and finds a page that fits. First landscape, then a larger sheet, then a page cut to its proportions.
The paragraphs around it can stay on Letter or A4. A short diagram stays with the text. A big one gets its own plate. Everything comes out in the same PDF.
Follow the placement ladder.
Letter · Body text and a diagram that fits inline.

A figure that fits stays beside the prose.
A wider figure gets a landscape plate.
Step up to a larger standard sheet.
Use a page sized to the figure.
The document is still yours.
Markdown, Word, Excel, CSV and TSV. Headings, tables, local images and Mermaid diagrams stay part of the document.
Legacy .doc, .odt and .rtf need a compatible installed LibreOffice or Pandoc. Plate|Fold re-lays out the content; it doesn't reproduce Word pages.
Use a built-in theme, a theme file or a supported source document's palette. Keep your settings for the next export.
Export through the desktop app or CLI. The conversion runs on your computer, with no document upload service in between.
See the page before you export.
The same workspace. Two interface appearances.
Example document. Preview the output, choose a theme, and keep page settings in the same workspace.
