PDF Tool
HTML to PDF Converter
Paste or upload HTML, preview it, and create a multi-page PDF.
Convert HTML code to PDF
Paste HTML or upload an HTML file, preview the result, choose PDF page settings, and convert the document locally in your browser.
Upload or enter content
Paste a self-contained HTML snippet or upload an HTML file to preview it in an isolated frame.
Adjust the output
Choose A4 or Letter paper, portrait or landscape orientation, and the page margin before conversion.
Create the PDF
The tool renders HTML to a canvas with html2canvas, then creates one or more PDF pages with pdf-lib.
Private browser processing
External images and fonts may require cross-origin permission. Self-contained HTML with inline styles produces the most predictable result.
Prepare HTML for a predictable PDF export
Browser-based HTML to PDF conversion works best with self-contained markup and styles. Preview the content first, then choose page settings that fit the layout before creating the PDF.
Paste HTML or upload a local file
Use pasted markup for a snippet or upload an .html file for a larger static document. This tool does not fetch and convert an arbitrary website URL.
Keep CSS and assets self-contained
Inline CSS, embedded images, and system fonts are the most reliable. Remote fonts and images may be blocked by cross-origin rules or require a network connection.
Choose paper size and orientation
A4 suits many international documents, while Letter is common in North America. Landscape orientation gives wide tables and dashboards more horizontal space.
Understand canvas-based output
The rendered page is captured visually and divided across PDF pages. Text may not remain selectable, and complex print CSS or fixed-position elements can differ from a browser's print dialog.
Common ways to use this tool
These are practical examples of when this workflow is useful.

-
Documentation
Turn a styled HTML guide or lesson into a printable copy.
Common mistakes
- Expecting server-side scripts to run.
- Using external images that block cross-origin access.
- Relying on print CSS that differs from the browser preview.
HTML to PDF Converter FAQ
Can I upload an HTML file?
Yes. Upload an .html or .htm file, or paste markup directly.
Does the converter support multiple pages?
Yes. Long rendered content is divided across PDF pages.
Will JavaScript inside the HTML run?
No. The preview and render flow are designed for static HTML and CSS.
Can I convert a website URL directly to PDF?
No. Paste the relevant HTML or upload a local HTML file. The converter is designed for content you provide directly.
Does HTML to PDF preserve selectable text?
Not necessarily. The page is rendered to a canvas before PDF creation, so text can become part of an image.
Are CSS page breaks supported?
Simple layouts work best. Browser rendering and canvas slicing may not follow every print-specific page-break rule exactly.
Why are external images or fonts missing?
A remote server may block cross-origin access. Embed assets in the HTML or use resources that explicitly allow browser access.
