What are PDF APIs for Python?
PDF APIs are software interfaces that enable developers to integrate PDF-related functionality into their applications or websites. These APIs allow for the creation, manipulation, conversion, and extraction of content from PDF files without requiring users to manually open or edit the files. Common features of PDF APIs include merging, splitting, editing text, adding annotations, and extracting text and images. They can also handle PDF conversions, such as converting PDFs to other formats like Word, Excel, or HTML, and vice versa. By using PDF APIs, businesses can automate document workflows, enhance document management systems, and integrate PDF capabilities into custom applications seamlessly.

Paperplane
Paperplane
Installing and maintaining a PDF backend is tedious and time-consuming. Paperplane adds PDF functionality to your app fast, so you can move on to what matters. If you have batch workloads, Paperplane will create up to 20 PDFs in parallel. Allowing you more time to improve your workflow and pump out more PDFs. The API is asynchronous too, meaning you can fire and forget your PDF jobs rather than keeping long-running processes around until everything finishes. Webhooks take care of notifying you of any errors that may have occurred during the PDF generation process. Are you looking for a solution to generate PDFs from your single-page app? If your site works in Chrome, it’ll work with Paperplane. Or choose to wait for an element to appear on the page before generating the PDF, so you can be sure all your content has loaded.Starting Price: $15 per month -

You can write mathematical and logical expressions to manipulate and customize values displayed in components. Use ternary, arithmetic, bitwise and comparison operators, and functions to sum, join and iterate arrays. You can use different components like Text, Table and Barcode and define the formatting for number and date values.

PDFKit is a PDF document generation library for Node and the browser that makes creating complex, multi-page, printable documents easy. The API embraces chainability, and includes both low-level functions as well as abstractions for higher-level functionality. The PDFKit API is designed to be simple, so generating complex documents is often as simple as a few function calls. Access privileges (printing, copying, modifying, annotating, form filling, content accessibility, document assembly). Accessibility support (marked content, logical structure, Tagged PDF, PDF/UA). Supports JPEG and PNG files (including indexed PNGs, and PNGs with transparency). In addition to PDFKit, you'll need somewhere to stream the output to. Note that in order to Browserify a project using PDFKit, you need to install the brfs module with npm, which is used to load built-in font data into the package. -
