PDF API IO is a cloud-based API service for generating, manipulating, and converting PDF documents. It enables developers to create PDFs from HTML, merge documents, extract text, and perform various PDF operations programmatically.
Overviews
Automate PDF generation and manipulation workflows by connecting document creation triggers with your business applications and data sources.
How it works?
01
Generate invoices from sales data
When new sales or orders are created in your e-commerce or CRM system, PDF API IO converts the transaction details into professionally formatted PDF invoices ready for delivery.
02
Create reports from spreadsheet data
Transform data from spreadsheets or databases into formatted PDF reports with charts and tables, distributing them to stakeholders through email or cloud storage platforms.
03
Convert web forms to PDF documents
When users submit forms through your website or application, capture the form data and generate PDF copies for record-keeping, sending them to storage or email.
04
Merge multiple documents into packages
Combine separate PDF files from various sources such as contracts, attachments, and supporting documents into single merged PDFs for easier distribution and organization.
05
Extract data from uploaded PDFs
When PDFs are uploaded to cloud storage or received via email, extract text and data from them, then populate spreadsheets or databases with the extracted information.
06
Generate certificates from course completions
Create personalized PDF certificates when students complete courses in your learning management system, including their name, course details, and completion date for immediate delivery.
07
Convert presentations to PDF format
Transform presentation files, documents, or images into PDF format for consistent viewing and sharing, storing the converted files in designated cloud storage locations.
