Could you include an example PDF so I can take a look? |

Absolutely, here you go: https://github.com/say4n/scaling-book/releases/tag/pdf-c012770484ef2b6af41d413aeb429116ecfd47f0 |

If you're willing, could you (or Claude) do a pass through the PDF and do a bit of cleanup? There are some residual things like "click here for the answer", bad spacing after subheaders, incorrect image sizing/centering, appendices that should maybe be formatted separately, bulleted list formatting, some weird artifacts in tables, etc. This is great, I think I'd just rather keep the book as the official source if we can't get this to the same standard. |

Also is it possible to publish in epub as well? |

This adds an automated PDF compilation pipeline and release workflow from scratch using Pandoc and Typst. The process relies heavily on first combining all the chapters to markdown, then using Pandoc to convert it to a Typst file; finally the file is rendered to a PDF for consumption.
