/minimax-pdfGenerate, fill, or reformat PDFs with a token-based design system, print-ready output in fifteen document types.
Install in one command
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/minimax-pdf && curl -fsSL https://eliteaiadvantage.com/skills/minimax-pdf/SKILL.md -o ~/.claude/skills/minimax-pdf/SKILL.mdThen run /minimax-pdf in Claude Code.
What it is
Minimax PDF is a three-route skill: CREATE (generate a new PDF from scratch), FILL (complete form fields in an existing PDF), or REFORMAT (apply the design system to an existing Markdown, text, or PDF document). It uses a token-based design system, color, typography, and spacing derived from document type and accent color, so every page reads as one document, not a stitched-together export.
Fifteen document types ship with their own visual identity: report, proposal, resume, portfolio, academic, magazine, editorial, terminal, poster, and more. Block types include headings, body, callouts, tables with auto-tinted rows, charts (bar/line/pie), flowcharts, math, code blocks, bibliographies, and figures with auto-numbered captions. The output is print-ready letter or A4, with cover image support and accent color guidance tuned to the document's semantic context.
Why it's useful
- →Three routes from one skill, create, fill form fields, or reformat an existing doc into a designed PDF.
- →Fifteen document types with built-in visual identity, report, proposal, resume, magazine, terminal, poster, more.
- →Token-based design system means color, typography, and spacing flow through every page without hand-tuning.
- →Block types cover charts, flowcharts, tables, math, code, and bibliographies, not just text.
- →Print-ready output (8.5"x11" or A4) with accent color guidance tuned to the document's semantic context.
- →Form-fill route inspects field types and writes values without altering the original layout.
When to use it
- •Generating a client-ready report, proposal, resume, or portfolio from content you already have.
- •Filling out a PDF form programmatically when manual entry would be tedious.
- •Reformatting a Markdown or plain-text document into a designed PDF without copy-paste.
- •Producing a print-ready PDF where visual identity matters, not just text layout.
- •Building documents with charts, flowcharts, tables, or bibliographies that need consistent styling.
- •Replacing a one-off Word-to-PDF export with a system that produces the same look every time.
How it helps with Claude
Without this skill, Claude tends to export Markdown to PDF with default styling that looks like a print preview. Minimax PDF reshapes the workflow into a token-based design pipeline, palette, cover, body, merge, that produces a designed document with consistent identity across pages. You stop shipping plain HTML-to-PDF exports and start shipping documents that read as designed.
