## How to call it through Zero

```

Example prompt: Convert this GitHub-flavoured Markdown to a tagged accessible PDF using A4 page size, Georgia font at 12pt, with normal margins and the title 'Project Documentation': '# Hello World\n\nThis is my **project overview**.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a standards-compliant, accessible PDF from Markdown — especially when the output must satisfy PDF/UA-1 (screen reader accessibility) and/or PDF/A-2A (long-term archival) requirements. Ideal for generating documentation, reports, or regulatory filings from Markdown source where accessibility or archival compliance is non-negotiable.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed Markdown input may produce unexpected rendering
- Unsupported fontFamily or pageSize values may cause a 400 Bad Request
- Payment not included or invalid x402 payment header returns 402 Payment Required
- Extremely large Markdown documents may time out or hit size limits
- Missing required markdown field returns a validation error

## How this service works

## Output

A binary PDF file that is dual-compliant with PDF/UA-1 (accessibility) and PDF/A-2A (archival) standards, with proper tagging for screen readers, rendered from the provided Markdown source with any specified formatting options applied.
