What do you use to make PDFs? What problems do you have?
https://github.com/spatie/browsershot or any other package which uses puppeteer / headless chrome. Found this to be the best solution when compared with all the other pdf tools. This alongside with the CSS print module polyfill https://github.com/pagedjs/pagedjs makes working with PDFs a breeze.

The core product is managed, cloud hosted browsers. We run thousands at a time using AWS and DigitalOcean, for people to use with Puppeteer and Playwright scripts. Our container is also available to self deploy under an open-source license.

Remote Server Compromised
So I recently installed ChangeDetectioIO on my server, it requires either selenium/standalone-chrome-debug:3.141.59 or browserless/chrome. I installed it with Selenium in a docker container since I noticed that it was running better than the browserless/chrome service.
