Step-by-step Guide to Google Apps Script 4 - Documents

Do you want to learn how to create documents automatically with Google Apps Script? This book shows you step-by-step how to use Apps Script to supercharge GOOGLE DOCS.

Every chapter contains a practical example of using Apps Script to create a wide range of documents, such as, invoices, sales quotes, student reports, and conference talk information.

It starts with relatively simple applications, like a master document copier which uses a Google Form to learning how to create web apps and making your own HTML forms to be able to email PDFs to potential customers.

Each example builds on the previous ones so you get to understand how to use the Document Service well. As this is the fourth book in the series on Apps Script, it does assume a basic knowledge of Apps Script, JavaScript, and a little HTML. That said, every bit of code is explained with links provided to example Form, Sheet, and Document files.
Tested using the new V8 runtime and updated using the new Script editor.
