Switch away from pandoc to a Python native exporter?

[Lawouach]

We are currently generate a Markdown report that feed into pandoc to generate any formats that pandoc knows about.

The downside is the heavy system dependencies this drags, mostly for PDF generation.

I wonder if we couldn't switch away from pandoc to native PDF/HTML generators, I'm assuming these are the two popular output formats.

Ideas of libs for PDF:
