Introducing TopazView: A Lightweight and Powerful View Engine
Yes, I have used Razor pages in non-website applications before where I needed to load the cshtml templates from a different source. I have written Line of Business apps (think WinForms or WPF) where the reporting spits out HTML with tables and charts. There are a number of similar projects to yours out there which I have used in the past such as RazorLight or RazorMachine.

Sending HTML based emails. Is there an easier way to dynamically generate the document?
Your mileage may vary but I've had good luck with the RazorLight library for generating HTML emails from a template with data merged in. Under the hood, it uses the ASP.NET Razor engine for applying a model to a template.

Don't make me think, or why I switched to Rails from JavaScript SPAs
Rails has a templating system for generating emails (standard HTML/ERB files). If you're running an ASP.NET Web API (not MVC) the best way of doing that I've found is via Razorlight which you have to set up manually - https://github.com/toddams/RazorLight
With Rails the standard is pretty much Devise or Omniauth (or both) - does everything for you. I've never found anything for ASP like Devise which gives you an entire login system with all the required views/migrations in a couple commands.

(Free) Open-source PDF Generation/Export
Otherwise, any pdf to hml chromium based solution hosted via docker, like gotenberg](https://github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg) or browserless.io(which is free if you create open source). Generating pdfs from html directly in .NET was always a pain. Wkhtml (and wrappers that use it) uses WebKit and comes with a load of issues of its own, similar to running and styling anything in Safari. Using chromium based engine saves a lot of time as it's the most popular way of doing it these days. You can also use puppeteer-sharp with local chromium if you host your app on something that allows it(f.e. not Azure Functions).

HTMLtoPDF
For the actual conversion of html to pdf we use PuppeteerSharp (https://www.puppeteersharp.com ) but you need browserless for that, which requires an api key (don’t know the pricing)

Iv'e been using https://github.com/hardkoded/puppeteer-sharp for html to pdf conversion for quite some time with success. (in both .net framework and .net core)
-
Last C# PDF doc/tutorial by Microsoft. Tomorrow, the PDF generation feature will be officially retired. So, I took this opportunity to archive this format. (Up to .NET 6)
Just generate HTML and use https://github.com/hardkoded/puppeteer-sharp to produce a PDF from headless Chrome.

Best PDF generation library to create nested tables
Another idea is to maybe generate the document as HTML first and then convert the HTML to a PDF (with somehting like PuppeteerSharp. I have found this more flexible in the past, but I have not personally done with with nested tables.
