Pdf doc automation
Task: automatic generation of PDF documents with a unique number and barcode
I am looking for a specialist in PDF automation / working with vector files.
There is a ready-made PDF document in vector format (the entire design is fully prepared).
It is necessary to implement the automatic generation of a series of documents (approximately 100–500 files), where:
In each file, the unique document number changes (numbering in order or from a table).
The document contains a barcode.
The barcode must encode a link or number that leads to a web page.
When scanning the barcode, a page opens where the number also corresponds to the document number (dynamic substitution).
As a result, you need to obtain:
either 500 separate PDF files
or one PDF with 500 pages
or a script/solution that I can use to generate such documents myself.
Important:
The document is already fully prepared — no need to redo the layout.
Automation is specifically needed (script, InDesign Data Merge, Python, Illustrator scripting, or another solution).
It is preferable that the solution can be scaled (if 2000 documents are needed instead of 500).
Please specify:

Hello!
I specialize in data automation. Your task is perfectly solved by a custom script that you can use independently for any volume of files.
1. Implementation method (Python):
I propose to create a standalone script in Python (libraries PyMuPDF + python-barcode).
How it works: The script takes your vector PDF template and an Excel table (with numbers and links). Then it "on the fly" generates a barcode for each row and overlays it along with the text at precise coordinates on top of the template.
Scalability: 500 or 5000 files — for the script, this is a matter of a few seconds. It can output either a folder with separate PDFs or one merged file (we will customize it for you).
2. Deadlines:
… 1-2 days (writing logic, adjusting coordinates to your design, generating a test batch).
3. Cost:
3000 UAH.
This cost includes: a completed batch of 500 files (if needed) + the script itself (I can compile it into an .exe so you can run the generation with one click on Windows without installing Python).

Hello
The task is clear - I have done similar generation for certificates and tickets with unique numbers and barcodes.
I propose implementation through Python:
- we take your original vector PDF as a template.
- the script substitutes the number (in order or from a CSV/Excel table).
- we generate a barcode (QR or Code128), encoding a link with the number parameter.
- we automatically create 500 separate PDFs or one multi-page file.
… - the solution scales up to 2000+ documents without changes to the logic.
Output:
- ready PDFs.
- a script for independent generation.
- a brief instruction for launching.
Deadline: 2–3 days after receiving the template.
Cost: $150–250 depending on the complexity of the layout and the type of barcode.
If needed, I can additionally implement a verification web page with dynamic number substitution.

Hello, I can help with this order, I would prefer a script that will allow you to automatically receive documents, you can compile the documents into a specific folder and specify the path from where to take them, and in the new one - you will receive ready-made PDFs.
Implementation in Python
Docker - for comfortable and fast launching, without installing unnecessary software on your PC, and for isolating the script.

Good day. I will write a script that will generate all of this. I will write the script in the Go language. It will work quickly and efficiently. You will be able to scale it to any quantity, Go is very well suited for this. Feel free to reach out. I am new to this service, but I have already done similar projects.
