Another user responded that using HTML/CSS with the browser's print to PDF function through PagedJS is the easiest and free way to do this. They suggested using a templating system like Jinja if doing it from a machine or sending templated HTML and data to a headless Chrome instance using a JS library like Handlebars for a single API call.

    You don't need python to do this, easiest and free way is to use HTML/CSS and PagedJS. Use the browsers
    print to PDF function to create PDF files from HTML, and HTML is infinitely template-able.

    There is little information about how you want to do this - will this be from your machine, or from a website?

    Depending on your use case you could use Python to craft a template with something like Jinja, or send your
    template HTML and a data file (JSON) to a headless instance of Chrome, use a JS library like Handlebars to do
    the templating and download the PDF (have done with with AWS lambda) in a single API call.
