+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+### Added
+
+- Add ways to verify the files
+
+### Changed
+
+- Refactored GitHub Actions workflow **Build PDF** (`scripts\build_guide_pdf.py`): now builds both light and dark mode PDFs (`export/thgtoa.pdf` and `export/thgtoa-dark.pdf` respectively).
+- Restored previous VT scans workflow **VirusTotal Scan** (`.github/workflows/vt-scan.yml`): submit files to VT for malware scanning. Links will be published on the site.
+
+## Fixed
+
+- `docs/about/index.md`: replace broken reference-style internal links
+- `docs/guide/index.md`: Appendix A6: comment out deprecated ODT information because we don't and probably won't use it in the future
+
+### Feature
+
+- Updated `scripts/build_guide_pdf.py` to use `--print-to-pdf` instead of `--save-as` for PDF generation, and added a new `--dark-mode` flag to generate dark mode PDFs. The script now supports generating both light and dark mode PDFs with a single command invocation by using the `--both` flag. This change improves the PDF generation process and provides better support for dark mode users. Save your eyes - you only get one pair.
+
+## [1.2.1] - 2026-04-11
+
+### Added
+
+- GitHub Actions workflow **Build PDF** (`.github/workflows/build-pdf.yml`): installs Chromium on `ubuntu-latest`, runs `scripts/build_guide_pdf.py`, uploads `export/guide.pdf` as the `guide-pdf` artifact. Runs on `workflow_dispatch`, on pushes to `main` that touch docs or build inputs, and on matching pull requests.
+
+- `scripts/build_guide_pdf.py` to build the MkDocs site and render the guide to a single PDF (`export/guide.pdf` by default) using a Chromium-based browser (Chrome or Edge) headless print-to-PDF.
+- `docs/stylesheets/extra.css` and `extra_css` in `mkdocs.yml` for shared site styling.
+- This `CHANGELOG.md`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- `README.md` “Ways to read or export the guide”: hosted link, local `mkdocs serve`, PDF build via the script, ODT note, raw Markdown link.
+- Guide landing layout: wrap the opening block in `docs/guide/index.md` with a `guide-intro-lead` container so the logo and first sections share one layout context for web and print.
+- `.gitignore` to exclude local build outputs `export/`, `site/`, and `_site_test/`.
+- `scripts/build_guide_pdf.py`: when the `CI` environment variable is set, pass Chromium flags (`--no-sandbox`, `--disable-setuid-sandbox`, `--disable-dev-shm-usage`) so headless print works on typical CI images.
+- `README.md`: note the **Build PDF** GitHub Actions workflow and the `guide-pdf` artifact.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- `docs/guide/index.md`: replace broken reference-style internal links (`[label][label:]`) with working same-page fragment links to the correct headings; correct the mismatched “Real-Name System” cross-reference; fix a broken footnote marker on the “free (unallocated) space of your hard drive” list item.

+# Development
+
+## Overview
+
+This repository now includes an automated workflow that handles PDF generation, verification, and distribution with the following features:
+
+??? Note "How the pipeline works"
+
+    1. **Automatic PDF Generation** - Builds both light and dark mode PDFs from MkDocs source
+    2. **SHA256 Hash Generation** - Creates hash files for integrity verification
+    3. **GPG Signature Signing** - Signs all PDFs and hash files with repository GPG key
+    4. **VirusTotal Scanning** - Automatically scans PDFs and updates release notes
+    5. **Release Automation** - Packages everything into GitHub releases
+
+## Workflow Architecture
+
+### 1. Build PDF Workflow (`build-pdf.yml`)
+
+**Trigger:** Push to main, pull requests, or manual dispatch
+
+??? Note "Steps"
+
+    - Checkout repository
+    - Set up Python 3.13 and MkDocs Material
+    - Install Chromium browser
+    - Generate both light and dark mode PDFs
+    - Create SHA256 hash files
+    - Sign all files with GPG
+    - Upload artifacts to GitHub Actions
+    - Publish release
+
+### 2. VirusTotal Scan Workflow (`vt-scan.yml`)
+
+**Trigger:** Push to main, tags, or manual dispatch (runs after build-pdf)
+
+??? Note "Steps"
+
+    - Download PDF artifacts from build workflow
+    - Scan both PDFs with VirusTotal API
+    - Extract scan results and generate report links
+    - Update release notes with VT scan status and URLs
+
+## File Structure
+
+After a successful build, the repository will contain:
+
+```
+.../
+├── export/
+│   ├── thgtoa.pdf              # Light mode PDF
+│   ├── thgtoa-dark.pdf         # Dark mode PDF
+│   ├── thgtoa.pdf.sig          # GPG signature (light)
+│   └── thgtoa-dark.pdf.sig     # GPG signature (dark)
+├── thgtoa.pdf.sha256           # Hash file (light)
+├── thgtoa-dark.pdf.sha256      # Hash file (dark)
+├── sha256sum-light.txt         # Combined hash file
+└── scripts/
+    ├── build_guide_pdf.py      # PDF generation script
+    └── verify_pdf.py           # Verification utility
+```
+
+## Security Features
+
+### 1. SHA256 Hash Verification
+
+**Purpose:** Ensure file integrity during download/transit
+
+**How it works:**
+- Each PDF gets a unique SHA256 hash calculated at build time
+- Hash stored in `.sha256` files alongside the PDFs
+- Combined `sha256sum-light.txt` for batch verification
+
+**Verification command:**
+```bash
+sha256sum -c sha256sum-light.txt
+```
+
+### 2. GPG Signature Verification
+
+**Purpose:** Verify authenticity and prevent tampering
+
+??? Note "How it works"
+
+    - Detached signatures created for each PDF and hash file
+    - Public keys available in `/pgp/` directory
+
+**Verification command:**
+```bash
+gpg --import pgp/anonymousplanet-master.asc
+gpg --verify export/thgtoa.pdf.sig export/thgtoa.pdf
+```
+
+### 3. VirusTotal Integration
+
+**Purpose:** Malware detection and security scanning
+
+??? Note "How it works"
+
+    - Automatic scan of all generated PDFs
+    - Results published in release notes with direct links
+    - Provides third-party validation of file safety
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Local Development
+
+```bash
+# Build PDFs locally
+python scripts/build_guide_pdf.py --both
+
+# Verify hashes
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --hashes
+
+# Verify signatures (requires GPG installed)
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --signatures
+
+# Full verification with VirusTotal check
+export VT_API_KEY=your_api_key
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --all
+```
+
+### CI/CD Verification
+
+The workflows automatically verify everything during the build process. To manually trigger:
+
+1. Go to Actions tab
+2. Select "Build guide PDF" or "VirusTotal Scan"
+3. Click "Run workflow"
+4. Download artifacts from successful run
+
+## Release Process
+
+When you create a tag (e.g., `v1.0.0`):
+
+1. Push the tag: `git push origin v1.0.0`
+2. Build PDF workflow triggers automatically
+3. VirusTotal scan workflow runs after build completes
+4. Both workflows update/create GitHub release with:
+   - Light and dark mode PDFs
+   - GPG signatures for all files
+   - Hash files for verification
+   - Release notes with VT scan results
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**GPG signing fails:**
+- Check that `GPG_PRIVATE_KEY` is in ASCII armor format
+- Verify passphrase is correct
+- Ensure key has signing capability
+
+**Hash mismatch after download:**
+- Re-download the file (corruption during transfer)
+- Verify you're using the correct hash file
+- Check disk integrity
+
+**VirusTotal scan fails:**
+- Verify `VT_API_KEY` is set correctly
+- Check API quota limits (free tier: 4 requests/minute)
+- Ensure PDF files exist before scanning
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+Enable verbose output by adding to workflow:
+```yaml
+- name: Debug
+  run: |
+    echo "Current directory:" && pwd
+    echo "Files in export:" && ls -la export/
+    echo "Hash file contents:" && cat sha256sum-light.txt
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always verify signatures** before opening PDFs from untrusted sources
+2. **Check VirusTotal results** for any suspicious detections
+3. **Keep GPG keys secure** - never commit private keys to repository
+4. **Monitor API usage** for VirusTotal to avoid rate limiting
+5. **Test locally** before pushing tags to production
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential improvements:
+- Multi-signature support (multiple maintainers)
+- Automated changelog generation with hashes
+- Cross-platform signature verification scripts
+- Integration with additional malware scanners
+- Automatic mirror updates with verified files
+
+---
+
+*This workflow is designed for security-conscious users who need to verify the authenticity and integrity of downloaded documents.*

+description: How to verify the authenticity of our files and check virus scans
+---
+
+# PDF Verification Guide
+
+## Files Provided
+
+For each PDF release, you'll receive:
+
+- **PDF file** (`thgtoa.pdf` or `thgtoa-dark.pdf`) - The actual document
+- **Signature file** (`.sig`) - GPG detached signature for authenticity verification
+- **Hash file** (`.sha256`) - SHA256 checksum for integrity verification
+
+## Quick Verification
+
+### Using Python Script (Recommended)
+
+```bash
+# Verify everything (hashes, signatures, and optionally VirusTotal)
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --all
+
+# Only verify hashes
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --hashes
+
+# Only verify GPG signatures
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --signatures
+
+# Check VirusTotal scan status (requires VT_API_KEY environment variable)
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --vt
+```
+
+### Manual Verification
+
+#### 1. Verify SHA256 Hash
+
+**Linux/macOS:**
+```bash
+cd /path/to/repo
+sha256sum -c sha256sum-light.txt
+```
+
+**Windows (PowerShell):**
+```powershell
+Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 export\thgtoa.pdf | Select-Object Hash
+# Compare with the hash in thgtoa.pdf.sha256
+```
+
+#### 2. Verify GPG Signature
+
+First, import the public key:
+```bash
+gpg --import pgp/anonymousplanet-master.asc
+```
+
+Then verify the signature:
+```bash
+gpg --verify export/thgtoa.pdf.sig export/thgtoa.pdf
+gpg --verify export/thgtoa-dark.pdf.sig export/thgtoa-dark.pdf
+```
+
+Expected output for successful verification:
+```
+gpg: Signature made [date]
+gpg:                using RSA key [key-id]
+gpg: Good signature from "[owner]"
+```
+
+#### 3. Check VirusTotal Status
+
+Visit the VirusTotal report links (automatically generated in release notes):
+- Light mode: `https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/[hash]`
+- Dark mode: `https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/[hash]`
+
+Or use the Python script with API key:
+```bash
+export VT_API_KEY=your_vt_api_key
+python scripts/verify_pdf.py --vt
+```
+
+## Automated Verification in CI/CD
+
+The GitHub Actions workflows automatically:
+
+1. **Build PDFs** from MkDocs source
+2. **Generate SHA256 hashes** and save to root directory
+3. **Sign files with GPG** using the repository's private key
+4. **Scan with VirusTotal** and update release notes
+5. **Create releases** with all verification artifacts
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Always verify signatures** before opening PDFs from untrusted sources
+2. **Check hashes** to ensure files weren't corrupted during download
+3. **Review VirusTotal results** for any suspicious detections
+4. **Import keys securely** - verify key fingerprints with the project maintainers
+5. **Keep verification scripts updated** to match current security standards
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Good signature" but wrong owner?
+- Ensure you imported the correct public key
+- Check the key fingerprint matches the official one from the repository
+
+### Hash mismatch?
+- Re-download the file (corruption during transfer)
+- Verify you're checking against the correct hash file
+- Check for disk errors on your system
+
+### GPG not found?
+- Install GPG: `sudo apt install gnupg` (Debian/Ubuntu) or `brew install gnupg` (macOS)
+- On Windows, use [Gpg4win](https://www.gpg4win.org/)
+
+## Key Information
+
+**Signing Key:** Anonymous Planet Master Key
+**Key ID:** See `pgp/anonymousplanet-master.asc` for details
+**Fingerprint:** Verify from the repository's official documentation

-I am in complete control of all my key material.
-
-All previous keys have been revoked as part of standard OPSEC key rotation procedures.
-Do not encrypt communications to my old keys, I will not read them.
-
-The key currently published on my website https://itsnothing.net/pgp.txt with a fingerprint
-of C87D87466FD205945CF10A3821AB6B6A6CB2C337, is my only PGP key for public communication.
-
-Permanent record of old and new PGP keys:
-
-the old key was:
-
-pub   rsa4096/0xB208C4084A2C582D 2022-11-04 [SC] [expires: 2027-11-03]
-      Key fingerprint = D793 9998 F78B ADB5 18C1  B600 B208 C408 4A2C 582D

-uid                   [ultimate] nopenothinghere@proton.me <nopenothinghere@proton.me>
-
-To fetch the full key, you can simply do:
-
-  gpg --keyserver keys.openpgp.org --recv-key 0x21AB6B6A6CB2C337
-
-**
-  Note: this keyserver is experimental.[0] I still have yet to add this key to
-  the I2P keyserver pool, and I don't know if I will. If you have previously
-  signed my key but did a local-only signature (lsign), you will not want to
-  issue the following, instead you will want to use --lsign-key, and not send
-  the signatures to the keyserver.
-**
-
-  gpg --sign-key 0x21AB6B6A6CB2C337
-
-I'd like to receive your signatures on my key. You can either send me an e-mail
-with the new signatures (if you have a functional MTA on your system):
-
-  gpg --export 0x21AB6B6A6CB2C337 | gpg --encrypt -r 0x21AB6B6A6CB2C337 --armor \
-      | mail -s 'OpenPGP Signatures' <nopenothinghere@proton.me>
-
-Additionally, I highly recommend that you implement a mechanism to keep your key
-material up-to-date so that you obtain the latest revocations, and other updates
-in a timely manner. You can do regular key updates by using parcimonie[1] to
-refresh your keyring. Parcimonie is a daemon that slowly refreshes your keyring
-from a keyserver over Tor. It uses a randomized sleep, and fresh tor circuits
-for each key. The purpose is to make it hard for an attacker to correlate the
-key updates with your keyring.
-
-I also highly recommend checking out the excellent Riseup GPG best practices
-doc, from which I stole most of the text for this transition message ;-)
-
-https://we.riseup.net/riseuplabs+paow/openpgp-best-practices
-
-Please let me know if you have any questions, or problems, and sorry for the
-inconvenience.

+To enable the automated PDF workflow, you need to add three secrets to your
+GitHub repository:
+
+1. GPG_PRIVATE_KEY
+   - Your GPG private key in ASCII armor format
+   - Used to sign PDFs and hash files
+   - IMPORTANT: Keep this secret! Never commit it publicly
+
+2. GPG_PASSPHRASE
+   - The passphrase for your GPG private key
+   - Required to unlock the private key for signing
+
+3. VT_API_KEY (optional but recommended)
+   - VirusTotal API key for malware scanning
+   - Get a free key at: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/join-us
+
+
+HOW TO ADD SECRETS:
+
+1. Go to your repository on GitHub
+2. Click 'Settings' → 'Secrets and variables' → 'Actions'
+3. Click 'New repository secret' for each secret below:
+
+   Secret Name          | Value Format
+   ---------------------|--------------------------------------------------
+   GPG_PRIVATE_KEY      | Paste the entire ASCII armored key (BEGIN PGP...)
+   GPG_PASSPHRASE       | Your key's passphrase (no special characters issues)
+   VT_API_KEY           | Your VirusTotal API key
+
+
+VERIFYING YOUR SETUP:
+
+After adding secrets, you can test by:
+1. Going to 'Actions' tab
+2. Selecting 'Build guide PDF' workflow
+3. Clicking 'Run workflow'
+4. Checking if the workflow completes successfully
+
+
+TROUBLESHOOTING:
+
+- If GPG signing fails: Check that your key has signing capability ('s' flag)
+- If passphrase is wrong: Verify you're using the correct passphrase
+- If VT scan fails: Ensure API key is valid and within rate limits
+
+
+SECURITY NOTES:
+
+⚠ NEVER share your private key or passphrase publicly
+⚠ Always use repository secrets, never hardcode in scripts
+⚠ Rotate keys periodically if compromised
+⚠ Use strong passphrases (12+ characters recommended)
