I have a couple issues I am running into.  
I have built a visual resume builder for the vfx industry but, in addition, it can take all the data and turn it into a printable pdf resume… where I run into trouble is that users also have appended pdf references which has added some complexity as i cant put my created pages and the uploaded pdfs together to be printed as 1.

firstly is there a way to add a pdf to a page NOT using the pdf viewer? Image element doesnt work with pdf ☹ … the issue with the viewer is that each pdf would have to be printed separately which is not ideal. If I can get that to work then everything is great. if not then,

secondly is there a way to print the page to pdf automatically without going through the print settings popup, why I hear you ask? if the page can be printed then i could send all the separate data to a pdf merger and merge everything into one and then send it back to the front end and display in a pdf viewer which would then make the whole resume and references printable in 1 pdf… this also isnt ideal and id rather just display it all in weweb and press print.

i looked into pdf monkey but that seemed confusing.

Any ideas?

Hi, @metalsteve81

You could merge these in Supabase, which would be harder, but I’d also check something like Make/Integromat
