BulkPDF and Privacy.
I broken-down BulkPDF to create some pdf forms at work. Now, they are concerned that I may have leaked customer data. BulkPDF is available via GitHUB and I did not find any security advisories there (https://github.com/Tadelsucht/BulkPDF/security/advisories). It's free and open source software but I am unsure if I should only go by what it says onGitHUB or not. I couldn't find any negative information after several searches. I have reached out to the creator. It's an excellent program but I wonder if free is too good to be true??

Automate Excel with only powershell?
Like others, I recommend using the ImportExcel module. It uses and wraps EPPlus Software (EPPlus - Create advanced Excel spreadsheets using .NET (GitHub Project Old / New)) which is a DLL that is included with the ImportExcel PowerShell Module.

EPPlus Question
Their documentation looks okay. I doubt you're going to get many people familiar with a specific library here.

I need a Data-Grid that I can copy/paste excel data with
If you're copypasting stuff from excel, another approach I used in a different project is this package: https://github.com/EPPlusSoftware/EPPlus - which works in Blazor. You'd just let users drag/drop or upload their excel and import it, instead of copypasting
