Reading/Web/PDF Rendering

About
Currently rendering pdf articles from Wikipedia pages is handled by extension Collection, and it has different issues, especially with tables. The Wikimedia foundation would like to work on enhancing the end result of the rendered pdfs, in a way that meets the community needs. In this page, we are laying out the problem, and our proposed solution, the plan below is tentative, just to give clarity around tasks vs timeline, please feel free to add your comments and suggestions accordingly.

Technology Alternatives
OCG is currently not well supported by the WMF and there are difficulties with Latex that have disabled table rendering in pdfs. Latex is a fairly brittle framework which is not well-suited to our flexible content-types. Furthermore, bugs in OCG or the Collection extension have greatly diminished the 3rd use of OCG (creating books).
 * OCG, which converts wikitext pages to latex-formatted-pdf and plain text. In the past, it has also supported zim, epub and possibly more per above, applies an attractive layout where the print.css has not provided an attractive option when integrated with the collection extension, collates articles selected by a user into books + creates a table of contents
