What's the advantage over print > save as PDF? Asking for a friend.

  That you can script it.

  We use it for a CV portal (think internal linkedin without the social stuff). Advantage for us is in UX (we can have a download PDF button), although I'm not sure it was worth the bother.

  There are lots of use cases where you need a PDF document, without letting the user print to PDF it manually. For example sending PDF invoices per email, or generating reports and uploading it to a Dropbox directory.

  User experience ("download PDF" link). You may also want to send it in an email. (We do both.)
