Server-side PDF generation in SAP hybris + My PoC on PDF templates

I just published an article that explains how to generate/modify PDFs using various methods, libraries, and tools.

I also introduce my PoC on generating PDFs using the PDF templates created in Word/Excel and having fixed placeholders or dynamic substitution tags (such as {FIRSTNAME} or {CURRENTDATE})

You can also find the information on how hybris supports PDFs.
