ChatGPT collects your data and sends it to Carbone, which merges it into your template and returns polished, production-ready PDF, DOCX, XLSX or PPTX files with a consistent layout every time.\n\nBring your own templates, designed in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, LibreOffice, Google Docs, HTML or Markdown, or a fillable PDF form: ChatGPT reads an existing template to understand the data it expects, then maps your data onto it. ChatGPT can also design and edit templates with you, or create one from scratch around the data coming from your other apps, such as HubSpot or Notion.\n\nThe plugin gives ChatGPT tools to:\n- generate documents from a template and JSON data\n- inspect a template, list the data it expects and draft a sample JSON\n- convert files across 100+ formats, such as Word, Excel, HTML or Markdown to PDF\n- manage your template library: upload, version, deploy, tag, download and delete templates\n\nAvailable skill:\n- Design a document template: turns a Word, Excel, PowerPoint or PDF file into a template for your data, with the right Carbone tags, loops and formatters.\n\nTemplates handle real business documents: tables that grow with your data, conditional sections, calculations, charts, barcodes, QR codes and images. Carbone renders the same template in several languages, with translations, time zones and currency conversion, produces one document per customer or order, and finishes PDFs with a password, a watermark or PDF/A.\n\nGenerate industry-grade PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML and Markdown documents with one universal templating language, on an engine built for production: fast, reliable and ready for high volumes.\n\nSign in with your Carbone account to connect. Templates and data are shared as public links, as text, or from your Carbone template library.",
