[ ABOUT ]

We're Building React-Native PDF.

PaperJSX was founded by engineers who were tired of wrestling with Print CSS and HTML-to-PDF APIs that slice tables in half.

[ ORIGIN ]

The Stripe Invoice Problem

We've been there. It's the end of the month. Your SaaS has 1,000 customers. Stripe's native invoice customization has a 4-field limit. You need to add QR codes for payment, localized tax data, and usage breakdowns.

So you build a custom PDF generator. Three days later, you're still wrestling with Print CSS, debugging page breaks, and fixing tables sliced in half. The "code-to-PDF" workflow is fundamentally broken.

PaperJSX solves this: React components that understand pages, tables, and charts. The Smart Paginator handles the greedy pagination problem. Not HTML-to-PDF.

[ PRINCIPLES ]

What We Believe

01

Open-Core First

We believe in open source. The Community Engine is public on NPM. Advanced features (Pro Engine) pay for the infrastructure that makes them possible.

02

React-Native Rendering

Not HTML-to-PDF. We build a React-native pagination engine with Smart Paginator logic that browsers can't do. Components understand pages, tables, and charts.

03

Developer Experience

We listen to B2B SaaS engineers building invoice systems, report generators, and document automation. If it slices a table in half, it doesn't ship.

04

Stripe Beachhead

We're solving the 'Stripe Invoice Customization' problem first. Stripe's native editor is rigid. Companies need QR codes, tax data, and usage breakdowns.
