  A simple library for generating PDF written in Go lang

  https://github.com/signintech/gopdf is not declarative. Our use-case is to generate a receipt which contains a lot of dynamic data depending on the customer. Other ways to achieve this could be to use html templates and generate html and use tools like wkhtmltopdf for conversion from html to pdf. But, are these tools good enough to handle the pdf styling?

  I've also seen https://github.com/pdfcpu/pdfcpu. Not sure if it suits your use case, but seems like it's very actively maintained

  I would vouch for “pawn this off to another stack” approach. Prepare HTML/Markdown and in golang and then just call Pandoc or some other tool for making PDFs.
