paper2poster

Render a pre-extracted paper's structured 9-section spec (`paper_spec.md`) into a single-page HTML academic poster, fit the layout to the page via an iterative measured-fill loop, and export it to print-ready PDF + PNG thumbnail. Requires the upstream `paper2assets` skill to have produced an output bundle with `manifest.json` at the root and an `assets/` folder holding the paper metadata and media. Use when the user wants an HTML poster, PDF/PNG export, or PPTX from extracted paper assets, for example "render the poster", "make the poster from this spec", "export poster to PDF", or "paper2poster". The three skills paper2assets → paper2poster → html2pptx run in sequence, each invokable on its own.

# paper2poster — paper_spec.md → HTML poster → PDF/PNG + editable PPTX

This skill is the **rendering stage** of a 3-skill pipeline. It assumes `paper2assets` has already produced the input `<outdir>/`. Given that outdir, it picks figures, renders an HTML poster, iteratively fills the layout to fit a fixed page (60×36in landscape or 33.1×46.8in A0 portrait), generates per-section narration audio, hands the HTML to the bundled **html2pptx** sub-skill (vendored at `html2pptx/`) for an editable `.pptx`, and exports PDF + PNG. The html2pptx handoff is a **standard final step**, not optional — one run yields `poster.{html,pptx,pdf,png}`, because users want the editable deck in the same pass and won't call html2pptx separately.
