What PDF Generator API is
PDF Generator API automates PDF creation from data and templates, with tools for generating documents and handling related PDF tasks. Its visual editor provides drag-and-drop layout, live previews, and reusable templates. Templates can include expressions, custom HTML and CSS, and data-driven conditions, as well as QR codes and barcodes. The REST API merges data from JSON and other sources, and supports real-time, batch, and asynchronous generation. It can convert HTML and URLs to PDF, fill forms, and perform operations such as merging, splitting, watermarking, encryption, and compression. The service works with applications that can make HTTP requests and lists client libraries for PHP, JavaScript, Java, Ruby, Rust, Python, Go, and C#. It offers cloud and self-hosted deployment, with integrations including n8n, Make, Zapier, Bubble, Odoo, Postman, Adalo, Xano, and Airtable. Annual pricing starts at €80/yr for Creator, and a 14-day trial is offered without a credit card. There is no free plan. Credits count documents in five-page blocks: one credit covers a document of one to five pages.
