Convert formatted markdown to PDFs without additional libraries or paid services

I’ve just published a new workflow template that helps you automatically generate professional PDFs and share them with your team in Slack.

It use custom HTTP request node to create document on Google Drive (with markdown support), it is different from what other solutions shared before.

:sparkles: What it does

  • Uses OpenAI to generate structured content.

  • Saves and formats it nicely in Google Docs.

  • Exports the doc into a polished PDF.

  • Sends the file to your chosen Slack channel for instant sharing.

:wrench: Use Cases

  • Automating client reports.

  • Weekly project summaries.

  • HR/TA candidate reports.

  • Any process where you need a consistent, professional PDF output.

Would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or ideas for improving this workflow! :light_bulb:
