need to turn airtable rows into pdfs in a make scenario.. whats actually worked
client wants ~45 branded pdfs from airtable rows every monday. burned two weekends on make scenarios and im still manually exporting maybe 15 every week
google doc mail merge was fine until conditional sections per row and suddenly im doing document engineering for $0/hr.. docsautomator choking on nested tables, pdfmonkey timing out twice uploading a 2.1mb template, html-to-pdf modules that every automation guru swears by?? 12 test runs on one path alone. 4 mangled fonts. one totally blank page. spent saturday night on this and my girlfriend just stopped asking what i was working on
client thinks its a 20 minute task
anyone actually piping airtable rows into branded pdfs on a schedule without babysitting every execution. what finally worked for you because i feel like im missing something obvious
