Convert HTML & Web Pages to PDF

PDFToolsHQ HTML to PDF renders HTML markup into a PDF free, applying your CSS. JavaScript is not executed, so supply finished markup rather than code that builds the page.
PDFToolsHQ HTML to PDF converts pasted HTML or a web page URL into a PDF free, with CSS styling applied. It renders your HTML markup — including CSS styles, tables, lists, and images referenced by URL — and produces a properly formatted PDF. Paste your HTML directly into the tool or upload an HTML file, and the converter handles the rendering on our server so the output matches what a browser would display.
Common use cases include generating PDF invoices from HTML invoice templates, archiving web page content as a permanent PDF, creating printable reports from HTML data tables, and converting email newsletter templates to PDF for review. The tool supports inline CSS and external stylesheets referenced by public URLs.

Frequently Asked Questions About HTML to PDF
Everything you need to know about our HTML to PDF tool
Yes, completely free. Our HTML to PDF tool has no hidden costs, no watermarks, and no registration requirement. You can process as many files as you need, each up to 100MB, at no charge. We believe professional PDF tools should be accessible to everyone — students, freelancers, and businesses alike.
Your files are fully protected. All uploads and downloads use 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption during transfer. Processing happens on our isolated Hetzner server infrastructure in Germany — your file is never shared, analysed for commercial purposes, or stored longer than necessary. Every uploaded and processed file is automatically and permanently deleted within 24 hours of processing.
Supported file types: This tool accepts HTML, HTM files up to 10MB each. If your file is larger, reduce it before uploading — for PDFs you can try our Compress PDF tool, which accepts files up to 100MB.

.HTM
HTML Web Page
Yes — works on any device. The interface is fully responsive and tested on desktop, tablet, and mobile. Touch-friendly upload areas, drag-and-drop support on desktop, and mobile-optimised buttons mean you get the same experience whether you are on a MacBook, an iPad, or an Android phone. No app download is ever required — open your browser and go.
You can do both. Paste raw HTML directly into the text input field — the tool renders it server-side and produces a PDF. Alternatively, upload an .html file if your content is already saved locally. External CSS stylesheets are supported when referenced by public URLs. Inline styles and embedded styles in a <style> block work fully. JavaScript is not executed during rendering, so dynamic content generated by scripts will not appear in the PDF.
Turning a template into a finished document. You have an invoice or a certificate laid out in markup, you fill in the values, and you need a file to attach to an email — this renders the markup and hands back the page. It is equally useful for capturing a piece of documentation or a formatted report in a form that will still look the same in a year, when the styling behind it may well have changed.
Almost always because it was going to be created by a script. Scripts are not executed during rendering, so anything a page builds after loading — a table populated from an API, a chart drawn into a canvas, content revealed by a click — simply is not there when the page is captured. The fix is to supply the finished markup rather than the code that would generate it: view the rendered source in a browser, copy the resulting HTML, and pass that in instead.
No, and it would not work even in principle, because the renderer has no session and would receive the login screen rather than your page. The same limitation applies to anything else assembled per-user. Save the page from your own browser while you are signed in and supply that file, or copy the rendered markup out. For an ordinary printable page there is often a simpler route than converting at all — printing to PDF from the browser you are already signed into does the job in one step.
It lays the markup out against a fixed page rather than a scrolling window, then breaks wherever the flow reaches the bottom. That means a screen layout can arrive with a break through the middle of a table or a heading stranded at the foot of a page. You control this the same way a print stylesheet does — CSS page-break rules in the markup are respected, so a rule keeping a table together or forcing a section onto a new page does what it says. Styles in a linked stylesheet apply if the URL is publicly reachable.

Tips for Getting the Best Results from HTML to PDF
Practical things worth knowing before you process your file — the details that most often catch people out with this particular tool.
JavaScript is not executed
Content generated by scripts after page load will not appear. Only the static HTML and CSS are rendered.
Use absolute URLs for assets
Images and stylesheets must be reachable at public addresses. Relative paths and local files will not resolve on our server.
Print styles apply
If your HTML includes an @media print stylesheet it will be honoured, which is a useful way to control the PDF layout precisely.
