Workflow
In Uhuu, the workflow begins with creating and deploying a template, an HTML-based document framework designed for print-friendly layouts. Once the template is live, data integration can be set up to pull information from external sources or user inputs, which is then bound to the template through the Uhuu SDK’s payload system.
The Uhuu Editor allows users to modify this data directly within an interactive environment, leveraging various dialogs like text editors, image croppers, and map selectors for precise customization.
Once the content is finalized, the template, populated with the latest data, is ready for export to generate a PDF document based on the interactive HTML. This structured process ensures a consistent and efficient path from template setup to finalized document output.
Document Generation
After a template has been created and published, documents can be generated directly through the Dashboard or API.
Document Data
The Template's Data tab displays the base data used during document creation, showing the structure that integration data will bind to during the document generation process.
New Document
- Go to the Template details page in the dashboard.
- Select
New Document.
Edit
Click on editable areas within the template to modify data. Each click will open a dialog where you can enter or adjust information.
Preview
The preview automatically updates with each data input, allowing you to verify the document's layout and content. This live PDF preview reflects real-time changes, ensuring accuracy in the final document.
Export
Once the preview is confirmed, click "Export" to generate the document.
After generation, the Document page includes a "Download" option to access the completed PDF.
This workflow provides a streamlined process for document generation, from template selection to the finalized downloadable PDF.
