Export any content (including charts) to PDF. If input isn't HTML, create a well-designed layout first. IMPORTANT: Call pdfcrowd_info(topic: "parameters") to get the full input schema. IMPORTANT: Before creating HTML, first call pdfcrowd_info(topic: "html_layout") to get the layout guidelines. Do NOT pass PDFCrowd API parameters - this tool has its own schema.
