Gotenberg
Turn any document or URL into a PDF file with this developer-friendly API.
Gotenberg provides endpoints to easily convert web pages, Markdown, Word and Excel files into PDF. But also allows you to merge multiple PDFs into one.
With the different parameters, you have full control of the output like landscape/portrait mode or margin/padding. Based on your project workflow requirements, you can choose to run it synchronously or asynchronously and get notified on a webhook when the process is finished.
