Generate a PDF from each row in Google Sheets automatically
Does each PDF need data from more than one row, like an invoice with its items? Should it appear on its own, without anyone clicking Run? If both answers are no, an Apps Script or a free add-on will do. If either answer is yes, skip the script and use a tool that fills the template for you.
Only need the sheet itself as one PDF? Click File > Download > PDF in Google Sheets.
Google Sheets to PDF tools compared
| Option | Starts when a row is added | Several rows in one PDF (line items) | Sends for signature | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DocsAutomator | Yes, with auto-create | Yes, from a linked sheet | Yes, included in every plan | $228 a year for 100 documents a month, any number of users; free previews with a watermark |
| Apps Script | Only with a trigger you write | In code: Google's sample fills the template from other sheets | Not built in | Free; each run stops after 6 minutes |
| Autocrat add-on | On a new form response | Not on its listing | Not on its listing | Free |
| Document Studio add-on | Yes, for new rows | Not on its pricing page | Through DocuSign, Adobe Sign or Zoho Sign | $79 a year per user, up to 500 rows a day; 25 rows a month free |
| Form Publisher add-on | On a new form response; sheet rows in one click | Not on its features list | Yes | $99 a year for 1 user; 20 rows a month free |
| Portant | On a schedule | Yes, on Pro | Yes | $504 a year for 1 user on Pro; free plan |
| Zapier or Make with Google Docs | Yes, a new row starts the workflow | Not in the Google Docs step | Not in the Google Docs step | Zapier's or Make's own plan |
Already run your sheet through Zapier or Make? Keep that workflow. When the PDF needs line items or a signature, let it hand the row to DocsAutomator, which has its own app on both.
Save the PDF back to the row
We write each PDF's link into the column you pick, so the sheet shows you which rows already have their document. You choose how a document starts. A link in each row creates that row's PDF after you confirm, and a double click won't make two invoices. A menu button creates many PDFs in one batch. Auto-create picks up to 50 new rows every 5 minutes with nobody pressing anything. The same step can send the PDF for signature or one-click acceptance, and a link to the sealed PDF comes back to the row. Files can also go to Google Drive, OneDrive or Dropbox.

I've just been looking for this app for weeks. DocsAutomator simply outperforms any competitor out there. I've tried almost every possible way to generate PDF from Airtable, and none offer half of the capacities DocsAutomator does.
