Ask HN: Looking for recommendations for document generation APIs

2 pointsby giza182over 3 years ago
Can anyone recommend a good api for generating pdf documents? I'm thinking of something that you can provide with a template (maybe html) and a model and it spits out a pdf document. I know it's not too difficult to write one's own, I'm just curious.

Hi, there are some open sources likejsreports, carbone or reportbro but if you are looking generation to image you might try <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;duply.co" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;duply.co</a>

Check out carbone.io It’s not super powerful but does the trick for basic stuff. They have both self hosted and a cloud&#x2F;paid version. pspdfkit.com might also have something for rendering PDFs as a service.

Just to say when evaluating pdf generation you probably need to consider accessibility at some stage and a lot of options are weak on this
