Show HN: Turn emails into PDFs (as easy as it gets)

2 pointsby whiteover 1 year ago
Our customers (mostly B2B) have been asking for PDF version of invoices, receipts and whatnot instead of the ones sent as email.<p>Tapdone, my side project. It&#x27;s like a PDF agent listening to your emails. `Bcc` the service when you send out an invoice, and it flips that email into a PDF and shoots it back to you and your customer.<p>Zero fancy stuff, just a neat trick to keep the PDF-demanding crowd happy while you hack away at the real work. Happy to share and please let me know if you find it useful.<p>Email to PDF https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.tapdone.com and in exchange just drop me a line with your thoughts. If it smooths out even one wrinkle in your day, I&#x27;m counting it as a win.

Would be smarter just doing in this in-house, sending a bunch of sensitive things (like invoices, receipts, personal details, whatever) to a random service does not sound very smart...<p>I can&#x27;t find a privacy policy of any kind so god knows what you do with that information

Skeptical guy here: 1) Personal Data (names, surnames, IPs, potentially personal data within the messages) - not YOUR accountability (Controller) but you automatically become a Processor and all the headache it entails (GDPR for EU and any other law for other places)<p>2) (I got other comments that I will not bring out as it&#x27;s my personal preference on doing &quot;print to PDF&quot; and save it in a format &quot;YYYY-MM-DD-From-Subject&quot;)
