Forme gives an absolute box no height from its top and bottom offsets,
so the bar that react-pdf stretched down each section's items vanished.
The converter now draws such a bar as the left border of a box around
the other children, which is as tall as they are and is painted on
every page the section reaches.
Work around more Forme 0.25 layout defects in the converter: row-reverse
laid out as row, min and max widths ignored along a row, text dropping
view children, empty text taking a line, overflowing optimal line
breaks, a text in a splitting row wrecking later pages, page breaks on
row items, four equal border sides, percentage corner radii, pictures
under their shadow, and imported table rows. Rotation is left out while
Forme misplaces rotated boxes; the stylesheet editor warns about it and
about percentage padding.
The page map rebuilds blocks Forme drops from its layout, the browser
renderer rejects documents whose fonts can't load so callers fall back
to the server PDF, and every render gets fresh font entries. Glalie's
sidebar is one band at the combined tint.
Tests are re-baselined where they encoded react-pdf metrics, and engine
limits (list marker keep-together, RTL line order, characters above
U+FFFF, percentage padding) are expected failures. The plan logs the
migration in section 13.
The Lapras section marginTop added in c0c658c0 shifted every date marker in
that template down the page, but the date-layout characterization baseline
was not regenerated, so packages/pdf has been failing on main since. The
delta is geometry-only: same page count (2), same text item count (87), same
markers, x and width unchanged; 17 markers move on y and the raster hashes
follow.
Nothing caught it because the workflow ran test:ci for only server and
tooling, leaving 17 packages uncovered. Replace that filter list with the
full workspace run so a package cannot silently lose coverage again, and
move it after the migration and storage steps that the api suite needs.
Serial execution is deliberate. Running the packages in parallel oversubscribes
the runner and starves the PDF rasterization and API rate-limit suites past
their timeouts; 19/19 pass consistently at --concurrency=1.
