What can this thing do so far?

• works with PDFV2 (e.g. RLP_BUSINESSCARD_CORP_001_EN) and PDFV3 (IMP_FLYER_2PG_EDE_101) designs, so far

• admin can create configurations which specify an image set id, resource-key-to-strings mapping, and symbol-to-strings mapping

{
  "imageSetId": "corcoran-4",
  "resourceKeyValues": {
    "COR_AGENT_1_TITLE": ["Agent 1 Title", "Agt. 1 Title"]
  },
  "symbolValues": {
    "misc_1.highlight_1": ["Agent 1 License Name"]
  }
}

• tool load configurations from the outside world specified at a variety of levels for either a layout or sample:

  • AP-specific, design-specific
  • AP-specific, design-agnostic
  • install-specific, design specific
  • install-specific, design agnostic
  • org-agnostic, design-specific

• tool resolves image set ids to S3 object-URLs to add to generator input values

• tool picks "longest string that fits" (which could be no string) for a max chars-constrained element

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
• Overwrite one of the image set-images' images by specifying an image for symbol agent_1.company.logo: https://theamericangenius.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/imprev-logo.jpg
