Design invoices, payslips, bank statements, reports, certificates, resumes and shipping labels as plain HTML with mustache-style placeholders, then render them over REST, one document at a time or in batch jobs of up to 40,000 documents. Rendering uses a Chromium-class engine kept warm between requests, so the PDF output matches what a browser prints: flexbox, grid, web fonts, SVG charts, right-to-left scripts, and real page numbers through CSS @page. A modern alternative to wkhtmltopdf scripting and to driving a headless browser yourself: no process spawned per document, no cold starts, no conversion glue code. **What's in the box** * REST API for HTML to PDF conversion with stored, versioned templates * More than 100 starter templates plus a browser editor with live PDF preview * Batch PDF generation with per-document retry, ZIP output and a job manifest * PDF encryption (AES-256), watermark stamping, merge and page assembly * Signed completion webhooks, stored assets and per-key usage metering * Multi-tenant accounts mode for serving your own customers * AI template generation against any OpenAI-compatible endpoint you configure, including a local model; no model is hosted here **Private by design** Your documents never leave your server. There is no telemetry and no outbound call, so KimiDoc fits air-gapped networks and regulated data such as invoices, payroll and patient records. The service runs fully confined and is configured entirely through snap: `snap set kimidoc port=8899 api-key=SECRET`. Install, open the bundled web console, and render your first PDF in minutes. Guides, API reference and template documentation live at and self-hosted licensing at . A hosted version is available for teams that do not want to run their own server. ### Package name * kimidoc --- ### License * Proprietary --- ### Last updated * 27 October 2026 - latest/stable * 26 October 2026 - latest/edge --- ### Websites * [kimidoc.com](https://kimidoc.com "https://kimidoc.com") * [app.kimidoc.com](https://app.kimidoc.com "https://app.kimidoc.com") --- ### Contact * [ktechpit.com](https://ktechpit.com "https://ktechpit.com") --- ### Donations * [www.paypal.com](https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/keshavnrj/9 "https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/keshavnrj/9") --- ### Report a bug * [ktechpit.com](https://ktechpit.com/USS/public/contact.php "https://ktechpit.com/USS/public/contact.php") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/kimidoc/arch#report-snap-modal) --- [See more information about kimidoc ›](https://snapcraft.io/kimidoc) ## Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install KimiDoc : HTML to PDF API Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/) The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites) installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following: ``` git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git cd snapd makepkg -si ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install KimiDoc : HTML to PDF API To install KimiDoc : HTML to PDF API, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install kimidoc ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
