HTML to PDF

Convert a saved .html file into a PDF by rendering and capturing the layout.

What is Convert HTML to PDF?

Turn a saved .html file into a PDF by rendering it in a hidden container and capturing the result. Free, private, and processed entirely in your browser.

When should you use it?

This tool is useful when you need to move content between PDF files and common office formats without installing desktop software.

How Convert HTML to PDF handles your file

The HTML is rendered to a canvas with html2canvas inside your browser, then embedded into a PDF. Nothing is uploaded.

Your device's own CPU does the work, so there is no upload wait and no server-side copy of your document to retain.

Good to know before you convert

  • Upload a saved .html file. There is no field for fetching a URL, and remote pages must be saved to disk first.
  • Pages are captured as images, so the resulting PDF has no selectable or searchable text.
  • External stylesheets, web fonts, and images referenced by URL will not load unless they are bundled alongside the file.
  • The page is captured at a fixed 816px width, so responsive layouts render at their desktop breakpoint.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are CSS styles preserved in the PDF?

Inline styles and embedded CSS are honoured, because the HTML is rendered in a real browser container before being captured. External stylesheets and web fonts referenced by URL will not load, since the file is processed offline — embed them in the HTML or use local files.

Can I convert a live web page by pasting its link?

No. PdfPix only accepts an .html file you have saved to disk. To convert a live page, use your browser's 'Save page as' command first and upload the saved file.

Will the PDF text be selectable?

No. The rendered page is captured as an image and embedded in the PDF, so it looks exactly like the original but the text cannot be selected or searched. This also means the output file is larger than a text-based PDF.

Can I convert protected or login-gated pages?

Save the page from a browser session where you are already signed in, then upload the saved HTML file. PdfPix does not fetch URLs and cannot authenticate on your behalf.
