Can I personalise each guest’s invitation?

Yes — include the guest’s name or details in your data and call the API per invite to personalise every PDF.

Can I add an RSVP link or QR code?

Yes — put an RSVP URL in the template text, or insert a QR image and pass its value per render.

Can I match my event branding?

Edit the template fonts, colours and wording so every invitation matches your event identity.

Invitation PDF generator

An elegant event invitation with date, venue and RSVP — personalize and send one to every guest.

Send a refined invitation to every guest without laying out each one. Pass the event title, host, date, time, venue and RSVP line, and PDFgen returns an elegant invitation PDF ready to email or print.

Personalise and generate one per guest from a single template, so even a large guest list is one API call per invite.

Generate a Invitation PDF via the API

POST your data to /api/v1/generate and get a PDF back. Copy-paste an example, swap in your API key, and loop over a list to render thousands — one invitation per record.
