Page icon with PDF on it and an arrow pointing to it from a picture iconpdfRest recently expanded capabilities for its Add to PDF REST API Tool. While this tool already supported adding images to PDF page content, users can now seamlessly add any file type to a PDF as an attachment, ensuring all relevant information travels together and supporting regulatory compliance. Several prominent eInvoicing standards, including ZUGFeRD, require the attachment of an XML invoice file to a PDF/A document. Whether you aim to meet regulatory standards, attach source materials for review, or provide feedback with supporting documents, Add to PDF offers unparalleled flexibility and ease of use.

Key benefits of the enhanced Add to PDF API:

  • Attach any file type: Word, PowerPoint, Excel, XML, other PDFs, and more – consolidate all relevant documents within your PDFs.
  • Streamline collaboration and review: Provide comprehensive context and supporting materials directly within the PDF, enhancing feedback and approval processes.
  • Ensure compliance with confidence: Chain the Add to PDF tool with the Convert to PDF/A tool to not only attach supporting documents but also guarantee your PDFs meet stringent archival and regulatory standards.
