HTML → PDF, in your browser

Paste HTML, drop a file, or enter a URL. Get a PDF using the browser's own print engine — the same output as Ctrl+P → Save as PDF, but scripted and repeatable.

Converting HTML to PDF sounds simple, but fidelity depends heavily on CSS support. This tool uses the browser's native print engine wrapped in a Blob renderer, which means whatever you'd get from Chrome's Save as PDF is what you'll get here — modern CSS, web fonts, and print styles all work. For paste-in HTML, we render in an isolated iframe first for safety.

Three input modes

Paste HTML: drop full HTML into the editor, preview live, download PDF. URL: fetch and render (subject to the target's CORS policy — many production sites block cross-origin fetches). File upload: drop an .html file including linked CSS.

Print stylesheets and page size

Any CSS @media print rules are honored — headers/footers, page breaks, and hidden nav all behave the way you'd expect from a browser print. Pick paper size (A4/Letter/Legal), margins, and orientation from the toolbar.

Fidelity limits

WebFonts load via CSS just like in the browser. JavaScript runs briefly before rendering — heavy client-rendered pages may need to wait for content. Iframes render at their embedded state. For pixel-perfect print, ship a server-side headless-Chrome pipeline instead.

Tool FAQs

Everything you need to know about using HTML to PDF Converter.

Does my PDF get uploaded to a server?+

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using pdf-lib and pdf.js loaded as WebAssembly. Open your browser's Network tab while processing and you'll see zero uploads — your PDFs never leave your device. That's why confidential contracts, tax records, and internal docs are safe to run through this tool.

Can I fetch any URL?+

Only if the target sends permissive CORS headers, which most production sites don't. For blocked URLs, view the page in your browser and use Ctrl+P → Save as PDF directly, or paste the HTML into the tool.

Can I process multiple PDFs at once?+

Yes — batch mode is available on the Pro plan. Free users process one file at a time. Pro unlocks unlimited concurrent PDF processing across every tool in the suite.
