One feature I would love is the ability to automatically generate the table of contents / “outline” metadata for a pdf. I run across a lot of old book pdfs without that metadata, which makes navigation annoying. Kybook3 has a version of this that doesn’t quite work. Maybe in the age of LLMs, this is now feasible.


I use https://github.com/Krasjet/pdf.tocgen.

It's not quite fully automatic, but it certainly saves a lot of time over doing it completely by hand.


Very nice! I’ll check it out.
