Convert HTML to PDF online
Convert HTML to PDF to turn a web page, an email template, or a generated report into a fixed document. The markup's structure — headings, lists, tables, links — is preserved as document structure rather than as a screenshot of a rendered page.
When should you convert HTML to PDF?
- Archive a web page as a readable document
- Turn a generated HTML report into something to email or print
- Produce a PDF invoice or statement from an HTML template
- Keep a record of a page that may change or disappear
Before you convert
Only what is in the HTML converts
Content a page loads with JavaScript, and anything behind a login, is not present in the file to convert. Save the fully rendered page first if that matters.
CSS is re-expressed, not reproduced
The conversion works on structure rather than on pixel-exact appearance. Custom layouts and web fonts will not survive exactly.
What happens to your file
pandoc parses the HTML into its own document model and writes PDF from it. Because it works on structure — headings, lists, emphasis, links — rather than on appearance, the output is a real PDF document rather than a screenshot of one.

| Works on | Document structure, not page appearance |
What changes
- Structure survives; precise visual styling does not. Custom CSS, exact fonts, and hand-tuned spacing are re-expressed in the target format's own conventions.
- Only what is in the HTML itself converts. Content a page loads with JavaScript, and anything behind a login, is not there to convert.
