(Feasible, but the manual labor required makes it inefficient for anything longer than a single page of notes).
It worked like a literary archaeologist. First, it would ingest the PDF and strip away the visual layer—the text, the jpegs, the watermarks. Then, it would dive into the "Document Catalog" and the "Cross-Reference Stream," hunting for byte patterns that matched the Sakurai signature: 0x53 0x4B 0x44 0x59 (SKDY). When it found one, it would extract the raw binary, decompress it using a deflate algorithm Sakurai had illegally modified, and then reassemble the node-attribute-edge tables into a living TNS file.
