Luckily all pdfs I made in academia have been generated from source (tex or derivatives, asciidoc) and llm are better in generating source than pdf. Even people that didn’t use tex used Word to generate the pdf.

So I’m unsure what your aiming at.

Source can have markers inserted in it as weighted word choice or phrase choices, how commas are inserted, etc., so that the output can still can be identified. In other words just because it's source doesn't mean it can be watermarked.

claude can pretty easily generate pdfs and give those to the user to download, skipping the step of needing a source first.

That's a worse workflow imo than having a source w/ version history, but I don't think it's uncommon.
