Description
A PDF library to create, edit, display, and print Acrobat PDF documents. The PDF API is small and fast. It is easy to integrate into your projects and is written entirely in Java.
The API has been designed so you don't need to know the PDF specification in order to create PDFs. We hide as much of the gory details as possible but still give you almost complete control over the PDF itself. Where possible we re-use standard Java classes - for example the pages are stored in a java.util.List, which can be manipulated any way you like (so moving pages from one document to another is a breeze). This means an API which is smaller and easier to remember.
The Viewer Extension allows PDFs to be parsed and converted to bitmaps for display, to be saved as a bitmap image (e.g TIFF) or for printing. Although Java 5 theoretically supports printing PDFs out of the box, results are often poor and support for features like annotations, encrypted documents etc. is incomplete. Our PDF library fills this gap, giving consistent results for all PDFs.
Description
PDFik is an asynchronous API designed to convert public URLs or raw HTML into highly accurate PDFs. Users can initiate a job, obtain a job ID, and receive an HMAC-signed webhook upon completion of the PDF, with additional support for polling endpoints if preferred. The rendering process utilizes a sandboxed headless Chromium, ensuring that modern CSS, web fonts, and complex JavaScript-heavy pages are accurately represented in the final output.
Among its key features are signed webhooks complete with automatic retries and a dead-letter queue available on all subscription plans, including the Free tier; two separate billing metrics for rendered PDFs and generated gigabytes which are tracked independently, ensuring downloads do not affect the quota; a free test mode ("test": true) that allows users to access the full pipeline without using their quota; file uploads of up to 150 MB across all plans; guaranteed deletion of generated documents within 24 hours; and end-to-end encryption for per-job credentials. Additionally, PDFik provides official SDKs for JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, and Java, along with a public OpenAPI specification for developers.
Under the Free plan, users can generate up to 100 PDFs and 0.5 GB of data each month, with card verification ensuring no charges are applied. Paid plans begin at $29 per month and come with a robust 99.5% Service Level Agreement (SLA), catering to various user needs and ensuring reliability.
