Frequently Asked Questions

Everything about HTML to PDF conversion.

For HTML code mode, the tool renders your HTML inside the browser and uses html2canvas to capture the rendered output, then packages it into a PDF file that downloads directly to your device — no print dialog or manual steps needed. URL mode opens the page in a new tab where you can use your browser's built-in Save as PDF.

Yes, in HTML code mode the PDF is generated entirely in your browser and downloaded automatically when you click "Download as PDF". No print dialog will appear. For URL mode, the page opens in a new tab and you use Ctrl+P → Save as PDF.

All standard HTML5 and CSS3 is supported — whatever your browser can render. CSS @media print styles are applied during rendering. JavaScript will not execute during PDF generation, so dynamic content requiring script execution may not appear.

Yes — use the settings bar above the editor to choose page size (A4, Letter, Legal, A3), orientation, and margin preset. These are applied when generating the PDF. Note that page layout reflects the rendered screen view; for precise print-formatted output, use CSS @media print rules in your HTML.

URL mode opens the page in a new browser tab for printing. Note that some websites block pop-up windows, embedding, or use JavaScript that renders after page load — these may not convert perfectly. If a site blocks pop-ups, use your browser's built-in print-to-PDF function directly on the page instead.

No. Your HTML code is processed entirely in your browser. For URL mode, your browser fetches the page directly — we do not proxy the request. No data passes through our servers.

HTML to PDF Conversion: Complete Guide

Converting HTML to PDF is essential for developers generating invoices, designers sharing mockups, and anyone who needs to archive or distribute web content as a document. Our free tool uses your browser’s native rendering engine — the same technology that powers Chrome’s built-in "Print to PDF" feature — for pixel-perfect output.

How Direct PDF Download Works

When you click “Download as PDF”, the tool captures your rendered HTML using html2canvas and packages it into a PDF using jsPDF — both running entirely in your browser. The PDF file downloads automatically — no print dialog needed.

  • Google Chrome / Edge: Set Destination to "Save as PDF", then click Save.
  • Firefox: Choose "Microsoft Print to PDF" or "Save to PDF" from the printer list.
  • Safari: Click the PDF button in the bottom left and choose "Save as PDF".

Controlling Page Layout with CSS

You can control page layout precisely using CSS @page and @media print rules in your HTML:

  • @page { size: A4; margin: 20mm; } — sets page size and margins
  • @page { size: landscape; } — forces landscape orientation
  • @media print { .no-print { display: none; } } — hides elements in the printed PDF
  • page-break-before: always — forces a new page before an element

Tips for Best Results

  • Use inline CSS or a <style> tag in your HTML — external stylesheet URLs may not load during PDF generation.
  • Avoid JavaScript-dependent dynamic content — scripts do not execute during PDF generation.
  • For complex multi-page documents, test with @media print styles to ensure clean page breaks.
  • After saving, compress large PDFs with our PDF Compressor.
