TinyPDF is an extremely lightweight PDF creation library at just 3.3KB with zero dependencies, focusing on core PDF generation functionality. It removes complex features like TTF fonts, PNG/SVG, and HTML-to-PDF conversion, concentrating on 95% of common use cases: adding text and images to pages. The library supports multi-page documents, custom page sizes, text alignment, rectangle line drawing, JPEG image insertion, text width measurement, and Markdown to PDF conversion. Developers can generate complete invoices, receipts, reports, and other documents with approximately 50 lines of code. For JavaScript applications that need to generate simple PDFs, TinyPDF offers a lightweight solution that’s 70 times smaller than jsPDF, making it ideal for frontend projects where file size is critical.
