+  code blocks, quotes, links, images, and PNG/JPEG. It cannot typeset math,
+  so formulas are set as readable text instead: Greek letters and operators
+  as Unicode, `x^2` and `x_i` as super/subscripts, `\frac{a}{b}` as `a/b`,
+  and display math (`$$...$$`, `\begin{equation}`, `aligned`) as its own
+  centred lines. No bookmarks, no page numbers.
+- **md2pdf** ([pymd2pdf](https://pypi.org/project/pymd2pdf/), ReportLab based) is
+  used when installed, for documents with footnotes, math or a title:
+  `pdfmd --install math` (same as `pip install "pdfmd-cli[math]"`; about
+  150 MB, Python 3.11+, installs matplotlib so formulas render offline, centred,
+  as real math; the few matplotlib cannot read are set as text like inkmd's).
+  Footnotes, bookmarks and syntax-highlighted code come with it.
+- `pdfmd --install emoji` (`pdfmd-cli[emoji]`, about 11 MB) adds the colour
+  emoji font; without it emoji print as `[rocket]`-style labels.
+- `pdfmd --install full` leaves the fallback behind: it installs **Pandoc** (the
+  real binary from PyPI's `pypandoc_binary`, about 35 MB, also `--install pandoc`
+  / `pdfmd-cli[pandoc]`) and **Typst** (Typst's own release from GitHub, about
+  15 MB, also `--install typst`, checked against the SHA-256 GitHub lists) into
+  pdfmd's own folders (`~/.local/share/pdfmd/bin`, `%LOCALAPPDATA%\pdfmd\bin`),
+  with no admin rights. A Pandoc or Typst already on your PATH always wins; to
+  remove them, `pip uninstall pypandoc_binary` and delete the `typst` file.
+
+Every input is treated as GitHub-flavoured Markdown. Pandoc-only syntax is
+converted where possible (`\newpage` and `<!-- pagebreak -->` become a page
+break, footnotes become endnotes for inkmd, `$` prices are not mistaken for math)
+and removed otherwise (heading and image attributes, `:::` divs, raw LaTeX,
+`<!-- comments -->`), with one warning per kind. CSV tables
+(`::: {.csv file="data.csv"}`) work as they do with Pandoc. The title, author and date in the
+front matter become a title block and the PDF's own title and author; other
+front-matter keys (`documentclass`, `header-includes`, `pdfmd-options`) are
+listed as not used. There are no filters, preambles, citations, slides, parts or
+report mode, and only Markdown input: for any of those, `pdfmd --install full`
+(or `brew install pandoc typst`, `winget install JohnMacFarlane.Pandoc Typst.Typst`).
+
+The built-in renderer is chosen automatically only when there is no Pandoc
+route; a Pandoc build that fails never falls back to it. Ask for it with
+`-e inkmd`, `-e md2pdf` or `-e native`, or `pdf-engine: inkmd` in `pdfmd-options`.
