How to convert HTML to PDF
Provide your HTML
Paste the markup, upload a single
.htmlfile, or enter a public page URL.Set the page
Choose a width and height in pixels, landscape orientation and whether background colors and images are printed.
Download the PDF
The page is rendered in a headless browser and returned as a PDF you can download or open in a new tab.
What the converter supports
Inline and embedded CSS
Styles in <style> tags and inline style attributes are applied, because the page is rendered by a browser engine.
Custom page size
Width and height are set in pixels. The sample above renders at 800 × 1100 px.
Backgrounds on or off
Print background colors and images, or switch them off for a plainer, lighter document.
Public pages by URL
Enter any publicly reachable http(s) address. Private networks and localhost are blocked for safety.
Limits to know about. Uploaded files must be a single self-contained .html file of up to 5 MB. External stylesheets, fonts and images must be reachable on the public internet. Pages behind a login are not supported. We do not claim that every HTML or CSS feature renders identically to your desktop browser, so test your own template.
Common problems and fixes
| Problem | Likely cause | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| Styles are missing | CSS is linked from a file path that is not public | Inline the CSS in a <style> tag, or link to a stylesheet on a public URL. |
| Images are broken | Image URLs are relative, or are only reachable on your machine | Use absolute public URLs, or embed small images as data: URIs. |
| Background colors are missing | Background printing is off | Tick “Print background colors and images”. |
| Content is cut off or too small | Width is narrower than the layout | Increase the width in pixels so your layout fits without wrapping. |
| “Invalid HTML content” | The pasted text has no HTML tags | Make sure the input contains markup such as <h1>, or use the URL tab for a web address. |
| URL is rejected | It points to localhost, a private network or a non-web port | Use a public http(s) address on port 80 or 443. |
