Create a PDF from a template with data you never retype

CraftMyPDF designs the document. Parseur supplies the data. This CraftMyPDF integration uses Parseur's AI email parser to extract the fields from any incoming email or attachment, then Zapier drops them into your CraftMyPDF template and generates the finished PDF. No copy and paste in between.

Order emails to branded documents

Parseur captures order number, customer details, line items, and totals from order notification emails. CraftMyPDF turns each one into a packing slip, receipt, or delivery note in your own layout.

Supplier invoices to a standard format

Parseur extracts vendor, invoice number, dates, and amounts from supplier invoices that arrive as PDFs or scans. CraftMyPDF regenerates them as one clean, consistent document for your records.

Form submissions to certificates and reports

Parseur reads registration and application emails from your web forms. CraftMyPDF fills a certificate, quote, or summary report with those fields, ready to send or file in Google Drive.

How it works

How the CraftMyPDF integration works

Set it up once. Every new email is parsed and delivered on its own after that.

1. Create your Parseur mailbox

Sign up and get a dedicated email address where your documents land.

2. Forward your emails

Send emails manually or set up auto forwarding so every new one arrives on its own.

3. AI extracts the data

Parseur reads each email and pulls out the fields you need as structured data.

4. Data lands in CraftMyPDF

Zapier picks up the parsed data and sends it to CraftMyPDF in real time.

What is Zapier?

Zapier is a cloud automation tool that connects apps together. You can connect two or more apps to automate repetitive tasks without coding or relying on developers to build the integration.

Trusted for Zapier workflows in production

BuildYourBnB, a short-term rental business hosting over 10,000 guests per year, uses Parseur with Zapier to route email data into its tools automatically, the same Zapier setup this CraftMyPDF integration uses. Founder Boris Mordkovich tested Parseur against Zapier's own email parser and found it more accurate on the rich HTML emails that platforms send.

To use this integration, you will need:

  • A Parseur account with a configured mailbox
  • A CraftMyPDF account
  • A Zapier account
  • A Google Drive account

How to create a PDF from a template processed by Parseur

Step 1: Set up your Parseur account and mailbox

If you don't have an account, sign up for Parseur and opt for the AI-assisted mailbox creation.

Step 2: Upload your document and confirm the mailbox

For this integration, we’ll upload an invoice for data extraction. Once Parseur receives the document, verify your mailbox type and mailbox name.

Step 3: Our AI parser captures invoice data automatically

You can also watch our tutorial video on YouTube to see how it works.

Parseur now uses AI to suggest fields to extract when creating a new OCR template

Step 4: Prepare your PDF template in CraftMyPDF

Use CraftMyPDF’s template editor to design the PDF document. You can include text, images, tables, and other design elements to match your needs. Click on “manage template” and “new PDF template.”

This template will be used to generate PDFs based on the data parsed by Parseur.

Step 5: Connect Parseur with Zapier

Select Parseur as your trigger app in Zapier. Choose “New Document Processed” as the trigger event. Connect your Parseur account and select the mailbox you created earlier.

Step 8: Upload the PDF to Google Drive (Optional)

You’ll notice that the link that Zapier provides expires quickly. You can add this step as a second action to your Zap.

Choose Google Drive as the action app. Select the "Upload File" action event.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about using Parseur to generate PDF documents in CraftMyPDF from email data.

Parseur extracts the fields from an incoming email or attachment, and Zapier sends those fields to the "Create PDF" action in CraftMyPDF, which fills your document template and generates a new PDF. You design the template once in CraftMyPDF, forward your emails to a Parseur mailbox, and map the extracted fields to the template fields in Zapier. Every new email then produces a finished PDF on its own.

Yes. Parseur's AI extracts the requested fields from any email or document layout, so orders from several shops or invoices from several suppliers can all feed the same CraftMyPDF template. There is no parsing template to build per sender on the Parseur side.

Yes. Parseur is a PDF parser as well as an email parser, so it extracts data from PDF attachments, scans, and images the same way it does from the email body. The extracted fields reach CraftMyPDF through the same Zap.

Use CraftMyPDF when you need a pixel-precise PDF with tables, images, and a fixed layout, and Google Docs when a simple editable text document is enough. Parseur feeds both the same way. See the Google Docs integration for the document version of this workflow.

No. Parseur's built-in AI extracts the fields you name from the email, and the Zapier connection maps them to CraftMyPDF without any code. The Parseur trigger is "New Document Processed" and the CraftMyPDF action is "Create PDF".

Yes. Parseur extracts repeating rows such as order lines or invoice line items as table data, and Zapier passes them to the CraftMyPDF template so the generated PDF lists every row. Design the table section in the CraftMyPDF editor and map the Parseur table field to it.

CraftMyPDF returns a download link to Zapier, and you add a second Zapier action to store or send the file. The download link expires quickly, so most setups add a Google Drive "Upload File" step, an email step, or a CRM attachment step right after the CraftMyPDF action. The Google Drive integration covers the storage side.

Yes. CraftMyPDF has a Make module and Parseur has a Make integration, so the same flow works with a Make scenario. Zapier has a ready-made template for this integration, which makes it the faster path for a first setup.
