HTML to PDF Converter

Purpose & User Intent: This tool converts HTML content to PDF for offline distribution, printing, and archival. Target users include web developers, QA engineers, content teams, educators, and marketers who require faithful rendering of web pages, templates, or reports. Use when you must preserve layout, fonts, images, and hyperlinks in a portable document.

Core Logic & Features: The converter renders HTML to PDF using a headless render engine. Required inputs include HTML source (URL, raw HTML string, or local HTML file) and an output PDF. Optional features include page size and margins, orientation, scale, CSS media type handling, inlining external CSS, JavaScript execution, background graphics, resource loading controls, multi-page output, and password protection. Batch processing is supported for multiple sources in a single run. Outputs retain hyperlinks and basic metadata.

Inputs & Outputs: Inputs include input_type ("url","html","file"), input_value, page_size (e.g., 'A4','Letter' or custom), margins (top,right,bottom,left in mm), orientation ('portrait','landscape'), include_backgrounds (bool), javascript (bool). Outputs provide a PDF file, page count, file size, and generation metadata.
