Make it work for you

From a sample to
your next document.

This layout uses standard HTML and CSS with Handlebars fields. The preview is rendered from the downloadable source and sample data shown below.

Use the sample as a starting point. Your application supplies dates, labels, and calculated amounts; the template handles their presentation.

Personalize the design
Update the organization name, typography, and CSS accent colors. Replace the sample wording with content appropriate to your business.
Connect your data
Keep the field structure in the sample JSON and replace its values. Repeating arrays create the document’s rows or sections.
Preview, publish, generate
Test with your longest content. Publish the draft, then generate PDFs using its templateId and fresh templateData.

Will the PDF match this preview?

The preview uses the same HTML and sample data included with this template. RelayPDF renders HTML using Chromium. Use the document’s intended A4 paper size and enable print backgrounds. Review page breaks when you add longer content or more rows.

Can I use my own branding and data?

Yes. Edit the HTML and CSS, replace the sample values, and keep the field names your template expects. Save your customized draft in the dashboard and publish a version when it is ready for your application.
