PDF generation in Azure App Service
We've worked on several cloud-native document generation projects at Damco Solutions, and for Azure App Service and Azure Functions environments, reliability and scalability are usually the key considerations. We've had good success with libraries such as QuestPDF and IronPDF for .NET-based applications, depending on the complexity of the PDF output and formatting requirements.
For high-volume enterprise workloads, it's also worth considering a microservices-based approach where PDF generation is handled separately and triggered through Azure Functions. This helps improve performance and makes scaling easier during peak demand. The best choice often depends on whether you need simple reports, complex layouts, dynamic templates, or compliance-driven document generation.
I'd be interested to know what your primary use case is—reports, invoices, contracts, or something else—as that can significantly influence the recommended solution.
