Frequently Asked Questions

HTML to PDF Converter is a free online tool that allows you to convert HTML documents and web content into PDF files. Unlike other converters, our tool processes everything directly in your web browser, meaning your documents never leave your device. This ensures complete privacy and fast conversion speeds.

Yes, our HTML to PDF converter is completely free to use with no hidden costs, subscription fees, or premium features locked behind a paywall. You can convert as many documents as you need without any limitations. We support the service through non-intrusive advertising that doesn't interfere with your work.

No, you don't need to create an account or register to use our HTML to PDF converter. Simply visit the website, paste your HTML content, and download your PDF. We believe in making tools accessible without unnecessary barriers.

Our HTML to PDF converter works on all modern web browsers including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari, Opera, and Brave. The tool is built using standard web technologies and should work on any browser that supports modern JavaScript (ES6+).

Yes, our converter works on smartphones and tablets. However, for the best experience and larger documents, we recommend using a desktop or laptop computer. Mobile devices may have limitations with very large HTML documents due to memory constraints.

No, absolutely not. Our HTML to PDF converter is 100% client-side, meaning all processing happens directly in your web browser on your own device. Your HTML content, documents, and the resulting PDF files never leave your computer. We have no access to your documents and cannot see, read, or store them in any way.

Yes, it is safe to convert sensitive documents using our tool because the conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your data stays on your device and is never transmitted over the internet. This makes our tool ideal for confidential business documents, personal information, and any content you want to keep private.

We collect minimal data for website functionality and improvement. This includes standard analytics data (page views, browser type, general location) only with your consent. We use Google's Consent Management Platform to give you control over your privacy preferences. Your document content is never collected or stored.

We use essential cookies for basic website functionality and optional cookies for analytics and advertising (only with your consent). You can manage your cookie preferences at any time through our Cookie Settings page. Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the website to function properly.

Our converter supports a wide range of HTML elements including headings (h1-h6), paragraphs, lists (ordered and unordered), tables, divs, spans, links, and more. We also support semantic HTML5 elements like article, section, header, and footer. Most standard HTML content will render correctly in the PDF output.

Yes, we support CSS styling including inline styles and embedded stylesheets. You can use properties like fonts, colors, margins, padding, borders, and basic layouts. However, some advanced CSS features like CSS Grid and complex Flexbox layouts may have limited support. For best results, use simpler CSS styling.

Yes, you can include images in your PDF, but they need to be embedded as Base64 data URLs rather than external URLs. This is because our tool runs entirely in your browser and cannot fetch images from external servers for security reasons. To convert an image to Base64, you can use online tools or convert them programmatically.

By default, the converter uses A4 page size with 10mm margins on all sides. You can toggle between portrait and landscape orientation using the settings panel. For more advanced page customization, you can include CSS rules in your HTML, though some @page rules may be filtered for compatibility.

Yes, you can control page breaks by using the CSS class 'html2pdf__page-break' in your HTML. Add an element with this class where you want a page break to occur. For example: <div class='html2pdf__page-break'></div>. The converter will insert a page break at that location in the PDF.

We offer three quality levels: Normal (faster conversion, smaller file size), High (balanced quality and size), and Very High (best quality, larger file size). For text-heavy documents, Normal quality is usually sufficient. For documents with images or detailed graphics, choose High or Very High for better clarity.

External images (images loaded from URLs) cannot be included because our converter runs entirely in your browser and cannot fetch resources from other domains for security reasons. To include images, convert them to Base64 data URLs and embed them directly in your HTML. This also ensures your PDF works offline.

PDFs are a print-oriented format, which can cause some differences from screen display. Common reasons include: unsupported CSS properties, external resources not loading, font differences, or complex layouts. For best results, use simpler layouts, embed fonts as Base64, and test with the preview feature before generating the PDF.

Long conversion times usually occur with very large or complex documents. Try reducing the document size, simplifying CSS, removing unnecessary images, or lowering the quality setting. Also ensure your device has sufficient memory available. Breaking large documents into smaller sections can also help.

Large PDF file sizes are typically caused by high-quality settings, many embedded images, or complex content. To reduce file size: use Normal quality instead of Very High, optimize images before embedding them, and remove unnecessary content. Remember that Base64 images increase in size by approximately 33%.

If you encounter an error, try refreshing the page and waiting for the PDF library to fully load (a few seconds after page load). Check that your HTML is valid and doesn't contain JavaScript that might interfere with rendering. If problems persist, try a different browser or clear your browser cache.

You cannot directly input a URL and convert it, as this would require server-side processing. However, you can view the source code of any webpage (right-click → 'View Page Source'), copy the HTML, and paste it into our editor. Remember to embed any images as Base64 or remove them for the conversion to work properly.

Absolutely! Our HTML to PDF converter is perfect for creating business documents such as invoices, reports, proposals, contracts, and more. The privacy-focused design makes it ideal for sensitive business information since nothing is uploaded to external servers.

Yes, you can create ebooks and long documents, though there are practical limits based on your device's performance. For very long documents (50+ pages), you may experience slower conversion times. Consider breaking extremely long content into multiple PDFs or using the page break feature to control layout.

Yes, you can use our HTML to PDF converter for both personal and commercial purposes. There are no restrictions on the type of documents you can convert or how you use the generated PDFs. However, please review our Terms of Service for complete usage guidelines.

Our converter is built using modern web technologies including React for the user interface, and the html2pdf.js library which combines html2canvas for rendering and jsPDF for PDF generation. All processing happens using your browser's JavaScript engine, ensuring privacy and speed.

The converter requires an initial internet connection to load the webpage and necessary JavaScript libraries. Once loaded, the actual conversion process works offline since it happens entirely in your browser. However, we recommend having an active connection for the best experience.

Currently, we offer only the web-based converter. We do not provide an API or integration options at this time. If you're a developer needing programmatic HTML to PDF conversion, we recommend looking into libraries like html2pdf.js, Puppeteer, or wkhtmltopdf for your own implementation.
