Hi everyone! I’ve seen many PDF related tools on HN lately and thought to post this. I’ve been working on this for a couple of years now as a tool to help me with my other projects. I was working with different ERP and e-commerce solutions where users were able to create invoices, quotes, labels and other printouts, and the customer support was full of small modification requests that had to be implemented by me or their developers. Eventually things got messy and we built this tool that we have now packaged as PDF Generator API.

What sets us apart from similar services/tools is that you can embed the template editor into your application and allow your users to make the modifications instead of running them through support/developers.

I hope other developers and companies will benefit from the service. Any feedback about the landing page and documentation is appreciated!
