Comment on Ask HN: Is PDF generation a real pain for developers?parent

Comments

Thanks. Do you think by using an HTML template that can be filled in later is a better idea than visual designer?

The visual designer is great, it adds back in the ability for the designer to alter the template without the developer having to change any code. If this was a standalone product the template format would most likely need to be a proprietary format anyway for some basic piracy protection.

Thanks we will start looking for its uses as a stand alone product.
