Unfortunately, Airtable’s extensions cannot be automated in any way.

If you'd like to automate the process of creating a PDF document and inserting the PDF file into an Airtable attachment field, you would need to turn to external document creation apps.

Here are some of your best options:

1. DocuMint: One of the most popular and fully-featured PDF creation tools for Airtable is DocuMint. This is the gold standard for creating PDF files from Airtable.

2. Another popular tool is Docs Automator.

3. However, you can choose ANY document creation app that you would like, and automate the PDF creation process by using Make’s automations & integrations. You can even use good old fashioned Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel. If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread. For example, here is how you would instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable.

Hope this helps! If you’d like to hire an expert Airtable consultant to help you with anything Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld

Alternatively to page designer, you can use typeflow.us for generating pdf based on Airtable data. We offer a lifetime plan currently at 150$. This plan lets you generate as many pdf as needed.
