Hi there, this post is introducing AutoDocument, a free and open-source document generating web app that connects spreadsheets, databases and user forms into documents such as Microsoft Word and PDFs. It's based on fantastic open sources libraries like python-docx-template and headless LibreOffice.
MailMerge is a pain because it:
AutoDocument is a free and easily installable web app that can setup reusable Workflows that convert data from a variety of sources including straight from databases and spreadsheets to several types of outputs, including Word and PDFs. It only uses text based fields such as {{ myfield }} instead of special objects. It can deal with logical blocks of text and loops to populate flexible templates including lists and tables.
