Gotenberg

Gotenberg converts HTML, Markdown, Word, Excel, and other document formats into PDF files through a developer-friendly API. It uses Chromium and LibreOffice as the tools behind this work. The program is for developers who need to add PDF conversion to software. HTML pages and Markdown text can be source files, while Word documents and Excel spreadsheets can also be processed. This range lets one API work with both web content and office files. Developers interact with Gotenberg, and Gotenberg interacts with Chromium and LibreOffice to create the PDF files. One clear limitation is its reliance on those two tools. Gotenberg does not perform every part of the conversion process on its own. Its central role is to give developers one API for numerous input formats, PDF output, and other functions available through the same program.
