I know it&amp;#x27;s a pain in the ass, but afaik it&amp;#x27;s still the best thing to do to generate PDF&amp;#x27;s and you have full control.</text><parent_chain><item><author>mariusz331</author><text>Hi HN. I built PDF Otter to solve a headache my last company faced. We needed to fill in PDF contracts repeatedly and there was no service out there that did that, so we had to build something in-house. We couldn&amp;#x27;t use [hello&amp;#x2F;docu]sign because sending users there lowered our conversion rates.&lt;p&gt;The PDF Otter API powers the PDF editor advertised on the homepage. The editor is simple but I think its better than similar services because you don&amp;#x27;t need to sign up&amp;#x2F;pay to fill-in and download your PDF. I think there&amp;#x27;s a lot of potential out there for apps built on the API.
