Resources for generating printable PDFs with Node.js

This doc gathers useful links and information about generating PDFs for printing purposes with Node.js. PDF is a flexible file format, and there are standards which allow only a subset of PDF features to enable better compability for certain use cases [1]:

  • PDF/X: Ensures the file will work when sent for professional printing (all fonts embedded, no RGB colors, etc.).
  • PDF/A: Ensures the file is appropriate for archiving-that is, it will remain readable for a long time, despite changes in technology.
  • PDF/E: Makes the file particularly useful for engineering documents.
