Project mention: Intro to DOMPDF - lightest and simplest PHP library to generate PDF documents | dev.to | 2024-04-05Generating PDF documents out of your app's HTML output is a very common requirement and there are several open source libraries to accomplish this.

Project mention: How to Simply Generate a PDF From HTML in Symfony With WeasyPrint | dev.to | 2023-12-12When I first looked for solutions to generate a PDF document in a Symfony application, I was amazed to find that a SymfonyCast was made about this. It features the PHP library Snappy, which is essentially a wrapper around wkhtmltopdf.
Resumake is really good for starting out. Plus they let you download the latex code and customize it if you want.
Wrote a tool two years ago that does some of the PDF-tests. But more could be added: https://github.com/jonaslejon/malicious-pdf

Project mention: Send a document with multiple copies of multiple names to a printer in desktop/web app | /r/FlutterDev | 2023-04-27One way I see is generating a PDF file of 100 pages, replacing the name (use https://pub.dev/packages/pdf, https://pub.dev/packages/printing or https://pub.dev/packages/syncfusion_flutter_pdf), then send the PDF file to the printer.
