“I built ExportToPDF because I lived through the alternatives. We tried Puppeteer inside MakeForms — it was a nightmare to maintain. React PDF means writing JSX to design a document, which just feels wrong. TipTap’s PDF export is expensive and the output never looks exactly right. I just wanted a tool where what you design is exactly what gets generated. So I built it.”
Every alternative has a catch.
We tried them all before building this. Here's what each one actually costs you.
Spinning up a headless browser per PDF request is slow, memory-hungry, and breaks on complex layouts in ways that are nearly impossible to debug. DevOps will not thank you.
Every template change goes into the developer queue. Nobody else can touch it. You're still fighting layout bugs — just in JSX instead of CSS. Design velocity: zero.
WYSIWYG-to-PDF tools promise pixel-perfect output. What you get is close — close enough until it's a contract, an invoice, or a patient document. "Close" isn't acceptable there.
First PDF in under 10 minutes.
No infra setup. No browser config. Just a template and an API call.
Use the visual editor to build your document layout. Add dynamic variables like @invoiceNumber, repeating table rows, and conditional sections. No HTML required.
Send your template ID and a JSON payload to /documents/generate. SDKs for Node.js, Python, Go, and Ruby cut this to three lines. Plain REST also works.
Download URL in the response under 100ms. Auto-route to S3, Google Drive, or send as an email attachment — all configured per template, zero code after setup.
Build once. Anyone on your team can update it.
A block editor built specifically for PDF documents. Not a generic canvas with a PDF export bolted on as an afterthought.
- Dynamic @variable syntax — any JSON field becomes a placeholder
- Repeating table rows for line items and arrays
- Conditional visibility — show or hide content based on your data
- Template versioning — ship changes without breaking live docs
- Real-time preview with your own sample data
Please find your invoice @invoiceNumber below.
| Item | Qty | Rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| @item | @qty | @rate | @amount |
| Total | @total | ||
One endpoint. Any language. Any stack.
If your code can make an HTTP POST, it integrates. No SDKs required — though we have them anyway to make it even faster.
- Full TypeScript types included
- Sandbox environment — test without consuming your monthly quota
- Webhooks — trigger PDF generation from any external event
- Multiple API keys with scoped read/write permissions
