Perhaps such a library of tools could be helpful, but a lot can already be 
done by building a tiddler in which what you see is what you get, open it 
in a new window and print to pdf. Especially if you include page breaks in 
the display. I like foxit reader as even the free version provides 
extensive mark-up on pdfs. Sometimes it is better to make use of a 
specialist solution in conjunction with tiddlywiki?.
