iText DITO® API

The real heart of the iText DITO framework is the API. It is the worker engine that marries JSON data with iText DITO templates to generate PDF documents, processes conditional logic, calculations and formatting and drops the generated files into their final location.

Integrated PDF Design and Production iText DITO is a fully integrated component framework for low-code PDF generation. The iText DITO Editor and API work together seamlessly.

Scalable and Robust iText DITO is built to generate PDF documents in high volumes. Benchmarks show that a representative two-page transactional document with autogenerated tables, data bindings, calculations and business-style formatting is generated within 300 ms. iText DITO API instances can be deployed easily and scaled up to meet to your volume expectations.

Low Code Requests to the worker engine are low-code and straightforward. You mainly specify a template within a .dito template archive, a JSON file and a destination folder for the generated documents. That’s it really.

Platform Independent The iText DITO API is available in two different flavors: a native Java application and a Docker container with a programming language agnostic REST API.
