Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tool free?

Yes, the HTML to PDF converter is completely free to use. There are no subscriptions, no watermarks, and no limits on the number of conversions you can perform.

Is my data secure?

Yes. Your HTML content is sent to our server for rendering and is automatically deleted after the PDF is generated. We never store, access, or share your content.

Does it support CSS styling?

Absolutely. The converter supports full CSS3 including inline styles, embedded stylesheets, custom fonts, flexbox, grid layouts, and print media queries. External stylesheets should be inlined for best results.

Can I include images in my HTML?

Yes. You can include images using base64-encoded data URIs or absolute URLs. For the most reliable results, inline your images as base64 data within the HTML.

What if my HTML uses external resources?

For best results, inline all external resources (CSS, fonts, images) directly into your HTML. External URLs may not be accessible during server-side rendering.

Can I upload an HTML file instead of pasting code?

Yes. Click the "Upload HTML File" button to select an .html, .htm, or .txt file from your device. The file content will be loaded into the editor automatically.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Inline all styles: Use inline CSS or embedded stylesheets rather than external CSS files for the most reliable rendering.
  • Use print media queries: Add @media print styles to control how your content appears specifically in the PDF output.
  • Test with the example first: Load the built-in example to see how the converter handles different HTML elements before using your own code.
  • Encode images as base64: Convert images to base64 data URIs and embed them directly in your HTML for guaranteed rendering.
  • Include a complete HTML structure: Use a full HTML document with doctype, head, and body tags for the best results.
  • Set explicit page dimensions: Use CSS to define page dimensions and margins for print-ready output.
