What it does

Why HelloPDF? We created HelloPDF because we needed a simple API to generate PDF's from URL's on the fly, we didn't want to pay $30+ a month to generate documents. Our platform was built with developers in-mind to simplify pdf generation.

    TinyPDF – 3kb pdf library (70x smaller than jsPDF)Dec 2025 · github.com · ▲253

    I needed to generate invoices in a Node.js app. jsPDF is 229KB. I only needed text, rectangles, lines, and JPEG images. So I wrote tinypdf: <400 lines of TypeScript, zero dependencies, 3.3KB minified+gzipped. What it does: - Text (Helvetica, colors, alignment) - Rectangles and lines - JPEG images - Multiple pages, custom sizes What it doesn't do: - Custom fonts, PNG&#x2F;SVG, forms, encryption, HTML-to-PDF That's it. The 95% use case for invoices, receipts, reports, tickets, and labels. GitHub: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Lulzx&#x2F;tinypdf npm: npm install tinypdf
