+`@push.rocks/smartpdf` provides a powerful interface for PDF generation and manipulation. All examples use ESM syntax and TypeScript.
 
-For further information read the linked docs at the top of this readme.
+### Getting Started
+First, import the necessary classes:
 
-> MIT licensed | **©** [Lossless GmbH](https://lossless.gmbh)
-| By using this npm module you agree to our [privacy policy](https://lossless.gmbH/privacy.html)
+```typescript
+import { SmartPdf, IPdf } from '@push.rocks/smartpdf';
+```
 
-[![repo-footer](https://pushrocks.gitlab.io/assets/repo-footer.svg)](https://maintainedby.lossless.com)
+### Basic Setup with Automatic Port Allocation
+SmartPdf automatically finds an available port between 20000-30000 for its internal server:
+
+```typescript
+async function setupSmartPdf() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  // Your PDF operations here
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+### Advanced Setup with Custom Port Configuration
+You can specify custom port settings to avoid conflicts or meet specific requirements:
+
+```typescript
+// Use a specific port
+const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create({ port: 3000 });
+
+// Use a custom port range
+const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create({ 
+  portRangeStart: 4000, 
+  portRangeEnd: 5000 
+});
+
+// The server will find an available port in your specified range
+await smartPdf.start();
+console.log(`Server running on port: ${smartPdf.serverPort}`);
+```
+
+### Creating PDFs from HTML Strings
+Generate PDFs from HTML content with full CSS support:
+
+```typescript
+async function createPdfFromHtml() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  const htmlString = `
+    <!DOCTYPE html>
+    <html>
+      <head>
+        <style>
+          body { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; margin: 40px; }
+          h1 { color: #333; }
+          .highlight { background-color: yellow; }
+        </style>
+      </head>
+      <body>
+        <h1>Professional PDF Document</h1>
+        <p>This PDF was generated from <span class="highlight">HTML content</span>.</p>
+      </body>
+    </html>
+  `;
+  
+  const pdf: IPdf = await smartPdf.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString(htmlString);
+  
+  // pdf.buffer contains the PDF data
+  // pdf.id contains a unique identifier
+  // pdf.name contains the filename
+  // pdf.metadata contains additional information like extracted text
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+### Generating PDFs from Websites
+Capture web pages as PDFs with two different approaches:
+
+#### A4 Format PDF from Website
+Captures the viewable area formatted for A4 paper:
+
+```typescript
+async function createA4PdfFromWebsite() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  const pdf: IPdf = await smartPdf.getPdfResultForWebsite('https://example.com');
+  
+  // Save to file
+  await fs.writeFile('website-a4.pdf', pdf.buffer);
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+#### Full Webpage as Single PDF
+Captures the entire webpage in a single PDF, regardless of length:
+
+```typescript
+async function createFullPdfFromWebsite() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  const pdf: IPdf = await smartPdf.getFullWebsiteAsSinglePdf('https://example.com');
+  
+  // This captures the entire scrollable area
+  await fs.writeFile('website-full.pdf', pdf.buffer);
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+### Merging Multiple PDFs
+Combine multiple PDF files into a single document:
+
+```typescript
+async function mergePdfs() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  // Create or load your PDFs
+  const pdf1 = await smartPdf.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString('<h1>Document 1</h1>');
+  const pdf2 = await smartPdf.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString('<h1>Document 2</h1>');
+  const pdf3 = await smartPdf.readFileToPdfObject('./existing-document.pdf');
+  
+  // Merge PDFs - order matters!
+  const mergedPdf: Uint8Array = await smartPdf.mergePdfs([
+    pdf1.buffer,
+    pdf2.buffer,
+    pdf3.buffer
+  ]);
+  
+  // Save the merged PDF
+  await fs.writeFile('merged-document.pdf', mergedPdf);
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+### Reading PDFs and Extracting Text
+Extract text content from existing PDFs:
+
+```typescript
+async function extractTextFromPdf() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  
+  // Read PDF from disk
+  const pdf: IPdf = await smartPdf.readFileToPdfObject('/path/to/document.pdf');
+  
+  // Extract all text
+  const extractedText = await smartPdf.extractTextFromPdfBuffer(pdf.buffer);
+  console.log('Extracted text:', extractedText);
+  
+  // The pdf object also contains metadata with text extraction
+  console.log('Metadata:', pdf.metadata);
+}
+```
+
+### Converting PDF to PNG Images
+Convert each page of a PDF into PNG images with configurable quality:
+
+```typescript
+async function convertPdfToPng() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  // Load a PDF
+  const pdf = await smartPdf.readFileToPdfObject('./document.pdf');
+  
+  // Convert to PNG images with default high quality (216 DPI)
+  const pngImages: Uint8Array[] = await smartPdf.convertPDFToPngBytes(pdf.buffer);
+  
+  // Or specify custom scale/DPI
+  const highResPngs = await smartPdf.convertPDFToPngBytes(pdf.buffer, {
+    scale: SmartPdf.SCALE_PRINT,  // 6.0 scale = ~432 DPI
+    maxWidth: 3000,               // Optional: limit maximum width
+    maxHeight: 4000               // Optional: limit maximum height
+  });
+  
+  // Save each page as a PNG
+  pngImages.forEach((pngBuffer, index) => {
+    fs.writeFileSync(`page-${index + 1}.png`, pngBuffer);
+  });
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+#### Understanding Scale and DPI
+PDF.js renders at 72 DPI by default. Use these scale factors for different quality levels:
+- `SmartPdf.SCALE_SCREEN` (2.0): ~144 DPI - Good for screen display
+- `SmartPdf.SCALE_HIGH` (3.0): ~216 DPI - High quality (default)
+- `SmartPdf.SCALE_PRINT` (6.0): ~432 DPI - Print quality
+- Custom DPI: `scale = SmartPdf.getScaleForDPI(300)` for 300 DPI
+
+### Converting PDF to WebP Images
+Generate web-optimized images using WebP format. WebP provides 25-35% better compression than PNG/JPEG while maintaining quality:
+
+```typescript
+async function createWebPImages() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  // Load a PDF
+  const pdf = await smartPdf.readFileToPdfObject('./document.pdf');
+  
+  // Create high-quality WebP images (default: 3.0 scale = 216 DPI, 85% quality)
+  const webpImages = await smartPdf.convertPDFToWebpBytes(pdf.buffer);
+  
+  // Save WebP images
+  webpImages.forEach((webpBuffer, index) => {
+    fs.writeFileSync(`page-${index + 1}.webp`, webpBuffer);
+  });
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+#### Creating Thumbnails
+Generate small thumbnail images for PDF galleries or document lists:
+
+```typescript
+async function createThumbnails() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  const pdf = await smartPdf.readFileToPdfObject('./document.pdf');
+  
+  // Create small thumbnails (0.5 scale = ~36 DPI, 70% quality)
+  const thumbnails = await smartPdf.convertPDFToWebpBytes(pdf.buffer, {
+    scale: 0.5,      // Small readable thumbnails
+    quality: 70      // Lower quality for smaller files
+  });
+  
+  // Save thumbnails
+  thumbnails.forEach((thumb, index) => {
+    fs.writeFileSync(`thumb-${index + 1}.webp`, thumb);
+  });
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+#### Constrained Dimensions
+Create previews with maximum width/height constraints, useful for responsive layouts:
+
+```typescript
+async function createConstrainedPreviews() {
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start();
+  
+  const pdf = await smartPdf.readFileToPdfObject('./document.pdf');
+  
+  // Create previews that fit within 800x600 pixels
+  const previews = await smartPdf.convertPDFToWebpBytes(pdf.buffer, {
+    scale: 1.0,          // Start with full size
+    quality: 90,         // High quality
+    maxWidth: 800,       // Maximum 800px wide
+    maxHeight: 600       // Maximum 600px tall
+  });
+  
+  // The method automatically scales down to fit within constraints
+  previews.forEach((preview, index) => {
+    fs.writeFileSync(`preview-constrained-${index + 1}.webp`, preview);
+  });
+  
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+}
+```
+
+#### WebP Options
+The `convertPDFToWebpBytes` method accepts these options:
+
+- `scale`: Scale factor for preview size (default: 3.0 for ~216 DPI)
+- `quality`: WebP compression quality (default: 85, range: 0-100)
+- `maxWidth`: Maximum width in pixels (optional)
+- `maxHeight`: Maximum height in pixels (optional)
+
+Common scale values:
+- `0.5`: Thumbnails (~36 DPI)
+- `2.0`: Screen display (~144 DPI)
+- `3.0`: High quality (~216 DPI, default)
+- `6.0`: Print quality (~432 DPI)
+
+### Using External Browser Instance
+For advanced use cases, you can provide your own Puppeteer browser instance:
+
+```typescript
+import puppeteer from 'puppeteer';
+
+async function useExternalBrowser() {
+  // Create your own browser instance with custom options
+  const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
+    headless: true,
+    args: ['--no-sandbox', '--disable-setuid-sandbox']
+  });
+  
+  const smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+  await smartPdf.start(browser);
+  
+  // Use SmartPdf normally
+  const pdf = await smartPdf.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString('<h1>Hello</h1>');
+  
+  // SmartPdf will not close the browser when stopping
+  await smartPdf.stop();
+  
+  // You control the browser lifecycle
+  await browser.close();
+}
+```
+
+### Running Multiple Instances
+Thanks to automatic port allocation, you can run multiple SmartPdf instances simultaneously:
+
+```typescript
+async function runMultipleInstances() {
+  // Each instance automatically finds its own free port
+  const instance1 = await SmartPdf.create();
+  const instance2 = await SmartPdf.create();
+  const instance3 = await SmartPdf.create();
+  
+  // Start all instances
+  await Promise.all([
+    instance1.start(),
+    instance2.start(),
+    instance3.start()
+  ]);
+  
+  console.log(`Instance 1 running on port: ${instance1.serverPort}`);
+  console.log(`Instance 2 running on port: ${instance2.serverPort}`);
+  console.log(`Instance 3 running on port: ${instance3.serverPort}`);
+  
+  // Use instances independently
+  const pdfs = await Promise.all([
+    instance1.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString('<h1>PDF 1</h1>'),
+    instance2.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString('<h1>PDF 2</h1>'),
+    instance3.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString('<h1>PDF 3</h1>')
+  ]);
+  
+  // Clean up all instances
+  await Promise.all([
+    instance1.stop(),
+    instance2.stop(),
+    instance3.stop()
+  ]);
+}
+```
+
+### Error Handling
+Always wrap SmartPdf operations in try-catch blocks and ensure proper cleanup:
+
+```typescript
+async function safePdfGeneration() {
+  let smartPdf: SmartPdf;
+  
+  try {
+    smartPdf = await SmartPdf.create();
+    await smartPdf.start();
+    
+    const pdf = await smartPdf.getA4PdfResultForHtmlString('<h1>Hello</h1>');
+    // Process PDF...
+    
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('PDF generation failed:', error);
+    // Handle error appropriately
+  } finally {
+    // Always cleanup
+    if (smartPdf) {
+      await smartPdf.stop();
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### IPdf Interface
+The `IPdf` interface represents a PDF with its metadata:
+
+```typescript
+interface IPdf {
+  name: string;           // Filename of the PDF
+  buffer: Buffer;         // PDF content as buffer
+  id: string | null;      // Unique identifier
+  metadata?: {
+    textExtraction?: string;  // Extracted text content
+  };
+}
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always start and stop**: Initialize with `start()` and cleanup with `stop()` to properly manage resources.
+2. **Port management**: Use the automatic port allocation feature to avoid conflicts when running multiple instances.
+3. **Error handling**: Always implement proper error handling as PDF generation can fail due to various reasons.
+4. **Resource cleanup**: Ensure `stop()` is called even if an error occurs to prevent memory leaks.
+5. **HTML optimization**: When creating PDFs from HTML, ensure your HTML is well-formed and CSS is embedded or inlined.
