HTML to PDF converter

Paste HTML, pick a page size, get a PDF. It is rendered by headless Chromium, so modern CSS, web fonts and JavaScript behave much as they do in a browser.

HTML

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<style>
  body { font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #1a1a1a; }
  h1 { border-bottom: 2px solid #2f4bff; padding-bottom: 6px; }
  table { border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; }
  th, td { border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 6px 10px; text-align: left; }
  th { background: #f0f2ff; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
  <h1>Sample report</h1>
  <p>This page was converted to PDF by headless Chromium.</p>
  <table>
    <tr><th>Item</th><th>Value</th></tr>
    <tr><td>Alpha</td><td>10</td></tr>
    <tr><td>Beta</td><td>20</td></tr>
  </table>
</body>

Batches

The web tool handles 1 document at a time. The API takes one request per document, so you can script as many as your plan allows.

More control

Headers and footers, page ranges, scale, custom page size, wait conditions and request headers are API options. See the docs.

Retention

Web-tool results are kept 10 minutes; free API results 1 day; Starter and Pro results 7 days; Business 30 days. The web tool allows 10 conversions per minute and 50 per day per visitor.

Questions

Why does my PDF look different from the page in my browser?

The PDF is printed from headless Chromium, so print styles apply. Use @media print rules and the CSS properties break-before, break-after and break-inside to control page breaks. With the API you can switch the media type to screen.

Can the HTML load images, CSS or fonts from other sites?

Public http and https addresses can be fetched while rendering. Addresses inside private networks, localhost and cloud metadata addresses are blocked on purpose. Inline small assets with data URLs if you want no external dependency.

Does JavaScript in my HTML run?

Yes by default. The API has a javascript option and wait options (wait_until, wait_for_selector, delay_ms) for pages that build themselves on load.

How big can the HTML be?

The free web tool accepts up to 256 KB of HTML per conversion and prints at most the first 10 pages. API requests accept larger documents; the limits per plan are still being decided.

How long is my PDF kept?

Web-tool results are deleted after 10 minutes. We do not keep a history for web-tool conversions.

Can I convert many files at once?

Not in the free web tool, which takes one document at a time. The API is the way to batch: send one request per document.
