What it does
Print Compatible Book Layout is an agent skill from SaberOnGo/public-domain-books-translation. Use when designing, translating, reviewing, or fixing LifeBook book/page layout, including print-compatible EPUB typography, Chinese title hierarchy, body rhythm, paragraph style, traditional note markers such as [1] or (1), vertical-writing considerations, block quotes, tables, figures, frontmatter/backmatter pages, section breaks, CSS layout rules, EPUB nav labels, title maps, and future PDF or physical-book publication compatibility. / 用于设计、翻译、审查或修复 LifeBook 书籍页面排版，包括 EPUB 与纸书兼容的…
Its SKILL.md is about 4.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml` and `references/research_basis.md`).

When your agent uses it
- Fixing LifeBook book/page layout
- Including print-compatible EPUB typography
- Chinese title hierarchy
- Paragraph style
Example prompts
- “/print-compatible-book-layout”
Workflow steps
10 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Classify the book type: prose, poetry, drama, academic, technical, illustrated, classical text, reference, or mixed.
- Draft a layout plan covering body paragraphs, headings, note markers, writing mode, figures/tables, frontmatter, backmatter, and print…
- Normalize source artifacts: remove OCR line breaks, running heads, page numbers, printed TOC residue, decorative separators, and stale CSS.
- Create or update title mapping for long or nested headings.
- Decide note marker style and numbering scope before inserting notes.
- Decide whether vertical writing is out of scope, a separate future edition, or a required current output.
- Convert tables and figures into mobile-readable and print-compatible structures.
- Build a sample chapter and inspect the generated XHTML on a narrow viewport or EPUB reader when possible.
- Record exceptions in production_spec.md, chapter controls, or technical QA files.
- Reject final output if layout problems are visible in reader-facing XHTML or would block future print/PDF conversion.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0964bfd. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are yaml).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Print Compatible Book Layout loads about 4.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 152 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,712 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,712 words (~4,117 tokens).
