The compiled files for browser usage are also bundled inside the package.
It is not possible to convert docx to PDF with docxtemplater, because docxtemplater is a templating engine and doesn’t know how to render a given document. We recommend to use libreoffice headless for a free tool or PDFTron for a paid alternative.
