Ask HN: What made you move back to HTML-to-PDF in production?

Curious what broke first — pagination, tables, fonts, or maintainability.

Context: I’m asking because I’m building an open-source tool around
server-side HTML → PDF and keep seeing teams try “lighter” libraries
first, then fall back to headless Chrome in production.
Curious where that tipping point was for you.

I only know how to lay things out well in HTML, so I never moved away from it.
