Features

PDFs that look exactly
like the webpage.

01

Any page size

A4, Letter, Legal, Tabloid, or custom dimensions. Set exact width and height for non-standard sizes like receipts or labels.

02

Backgrounds & colors

Set print_background: true to preserve CSS backgrounds, gradients, and colors. No more washed-out PDFs.

03

Custom margins

Control top, right, bottom, and left margins independently. Set in inches, millimeters, or centimeters.

04

Raw HTML input

Pass an HTML string instead of a URL. Render invoices, reports, or certificates from your own templates without hosting them.

Integration

URL in, PDF out.

No wkhtmltopdf. No Puppeteer. Just one HTTP call.
