UlvixorHTML to PDF Converter
Type or paste HTML code into the editor and convert it into a paginated PDF with one click. The HTML is rendered off-screen respecting inline styles (the style attribute), and html2canvas together with jsPDF generate the final PDF, all in your browser, without uploading your content to any server.
How it works
- Type or paste your HTML code into the text editor (a preloaded example is included as a starting point).
- Use inline styles (for example style='color: red;') to control appearance; external stylesheets (<link>) or <style> tags aren't loaded, since the HTML is inserted directly into a hidden container with no network access.
- When you click 'Convert to PDF', that HTML is rendered inside an invisible container with a fixed A4-page width.
- html2canvas captures that container as a high-resolution image, which is sliced into strips the height of an A4 page.
- jsPDF assembles those strips into a paginated PDF, which downloads automatically as document.pdf.
Use cases
- Convert an HTML snippet generated by another tool or system into a downloadable PDF.
- Quickly generate a PDF from a simple template (invoice, receipt, certificate) hand-written in HTML.
- Test how a block of HTML with inline styles would look before integrating it into a document-generation system.
- Export content copied from a web page (already with inline styles) into a paginated PDF.

Common mistakes
- Using external stylesheets or a <style> tag expecting them to apply.Only inline styles (the style attribute on each tag) are respected during conversion; styles defined in <style> or loaded with <link> aren't applied in the result.
- Not being able to see how the HTML looks before generating the PDF, since there's no on-screen preview.The render area is hidden off-screen by design; the only way to check the result is to generate the PDF and review it, since this tool doesn't show a visual preview before converting.
- Including external images (<img src='https://...'>) expecting them to always load correctly.html2canvas needs remote images to allow CORS in order to capture them; if an external image doesn't allow it, it may appear blank in the PDF. Use base64 (data URI) images if you need to guarantee they're included.
Frequently asked questions
No. Only styles defined inline with each tag's style attribute are applied; external stylesheets or <style> tags are ignored.
There's no visual preview; the HTML is rendered in a hidden container and the only visible output is the final PDF once generated.
No. The PDF is generated from an image capture of the rendered HTML, so text isn't selectable or searchable.
No. Rendering and PDF generation with html2canvas and jsPDF happen entirely in your browser.
Alternatives
Your browser's print function (Ctrl/Cmd+P → Save as PDF) on a real HTML page also generates a PDF, and usually respects external CSS and page breaks better. This tool is convenient when you only have a loose HTML snippet (not opened as a full page) and want to convert it to PDF quickly, with no installation and no content upload to a server.
