Effortlessly Generate & Email PDF Invoices with PolyDoc in n8n

Transform your invoice management with our streamlined n8n automation workflow that seamlessly generates PDF invoices using PolyDoc and emails them directly to customers.

What this workflow does

• Initiate the workflow manually with sample invoice data, enabling you to test and run it immediately. Customize the trigger using your own data sources like webhook, database, or Google Sheets.
• The invoice information, structured as JSON, is processed through the PolyDoc node. Here, it is converted into an A4 PDF using your pre-saved Polydoc template, and returned as a binary file.
• The generated PDF invoice is attached to an email, which is then sent to the customer's email address. Utilize any suitable SMTP or messaging node for a seamless email delivery process.
