I'm doing PDF document generation in typst, the format I'm generating is similar to invoices (specific to how the law in my country is, but that's a longer story).

Typst code generation was easy to automate with trivial python templates (jinja2). The core part of my document are multi-page tables, and typst splits them nicely.

I had to google around a bit, as there are multiple settings on how large tables are handled, I suggest that you give Typst a try, you can build a working prototype in no time
