Native pdf generator (with jspdf integrated)

Hi any chance retool can have a native pdf generator? using lets say jspdf? i know they are several way like carbone, documint etc. But will be good a native and free option to create beautiful pdf files for invoices etc.

We currently use the CraftMyPDF API which works well but has limitations. A builtin option would make life a lot easier.

Is good but the idea is to have a free option just like any js nextjs tool that have pdf generation free with jspdf etc

We are also using an outside PDF generator, having one built in would be huge.

Thanks all! This isn't on our current roadmap, but I am sharing this feedback internally :blush: Agreed that our current options for generating pdfs are limited

@agaitan026 I guess a custom component can be used to add jspdf quite easily. What's the use case you imagine?
