Description

The PDF Generator API makes it straightforward to create PDF documents using established templates alongside JSON data. It empowers your users to produce PDFs and oversee their document templates through an intuitive browser-based drag-and-drop PDF editor, which helps lower both development and support expenses. With our platform, you have the capability to establish distinct workspaces for individual users, enabling them to store and manage their templates effectively. Each time an API request is made with a new workspace identifier, a new workspace is generated automatically. Users can also write mathematical and logical expressions to adjust and personalize the values shown in the various components. The API supports a wide range of operators, including ternary, arithmetic, bitwise, and comparison operators, along with functions for summing, joining, and iterating through arrays. Various components such as Text, Table, and Barcode can be utilized, allowing for precise formatting of numerical and date values. Furthermore, it facilitates the grouping, filtering, and sorting of lists and tables without necessitating any alterations to the data set within the software application, enhancing overall efficiency and user experience. This feature-rich API ensures a seamless and dynamic document management process for all users involved.
