One of the things we've learned is that models often need more guidance when generating documents. We give real-time feedback to models as they're constructing the document, such as "you have content here that you've done nothing with and doesn't appear in the report as it likely overflowed off the page, you should think of a way to handle this" and "this image is sized incorrectly and just will not fit in the area you've specified".
Giving models the tools to create media for print allows both the user and the model to experiment with more wild designs, knowing that things will not randomly break!
Hi, Tom here. I'm happy to answer any questions r.e., generating PDFs, better ways of making automated document workflows more robust, or anything related to Papermill and Press!
We don't apply hard limits on PDFs. We've handled PDFs of over 1GB and close to 1000 pages.
We also have a large document service that handles extremely large PDFs in the background.
