DocSpring makes it easy for developers to fill out PDF forms. Upload a PDF template, we’ll automatically import fields if your PDF has a fillable form. Set up your fields, use our visual template editor to drag-and-drop your fields. Send an API request, send a POST request to generate a PDF with a few lines of code. Drag-and-drop your fields in DocSpring's visual PDF template editor, then set your fields types, conditions, and how you want to display the data. Ensure the data you send in your API requests matches the fields in your PDF templates. Never accidentally delete a field or send the wrong data. We support a wide range of field types, so you can fill out and sign any type of form. Fields include barcode, QR code, image, signature, and many more. We can generate web-based forms from the fields in your PDF template.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • All of our reoccurring documents now pop out in seconds. With Microsoft Word (it does Excel & PowerPoint too) as the template designer we can create documents with exactly the formatting & layout we want. And with all of our business logic directly in the template, the full automation is right there. Windward (actually Office) makes it so simple to change layouts, effects, colors and more. And the smart document logic puts our business logic right in the template. This functionality allows us to incorporate data based on our business rules placed directly into the template. Because templates are created in Office, our users already know how to use the system. Because of this most template design work is now done by the business users. This also means when someone needs a new template, they can build it immediately – no more waiting on dev. I also love that there’s no longer any code. It's not low code, it's no code.
  • Easy to start using Very close to "you see, what you get" You can work in office products , so it's a well known feel
  • We now get the documents we want. With Microsoft Office (we mostly use Word) as the template designer we can create visually stunning documents with exactly the layout we want. Windward (Office really) makes it incredibly simple to change complex design elements from layouts, effects, spacing, colors and more. In addition the smart document logic makes it easy to incorporate our business logic right in the template. This functionality allows us to show or hide data based on specific conditions using logic built directly into the template. Because our templates are designed in Office, our users already know how to design the templates they need. And because that is so easy, most template design work has been turned over to the business users. Not all, we still need to help at times, but most of it. This also means when someone needs a new report, they can create it immediately – no more waiting for someone in dev to do it. I also love that there’s no longer any code that has to be written for a template. And I was able to embed Windward into our application in about 15 minutes.

Cons

  • No complaints. Windward is a well designed product.
  • The have a kind support, but mostly need access to the database to support a template. This can be very tedious as we don't want our database open. Thus we have to recreate the error in a new report, based on dummy data. This can be a long an tedious task if we don't know where the error is.
  • I wish they had a document automation system. Windward makes designing and generating documents so easy – but that’s it. It would be nice if it then could be used to deliver the documents with a robust workflow system. Aside from that – it's good. Windward is a well designed product.
