How to use HTML to PDF
Paste HTML in the text box and run the tool. The browser renders the content and downloads a PDF.
What the result contains
External styles or complex pages may render differently, and the output uses a page image.
Practical tip
Preview a short sample first and check the downloaded pages for clipping.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account?
No account is needed to run this tool.
Are my files uploaded?
No. HTML to PDF runs in your browser, so your file is processed on your own device and is not uploaded to our server. The page only downloads the free code libraries it needs.
Should I check the downloaded file?
Yes. Open the result and confirm its pages and content before sharing or deleting your original.
When to convert HTML to PDF
- Email templates and newsletters: save a copy of an HTML email design as a PDF to share for approval.
- Simple invoices and receipts: turn HTML generated by your own app or script into a PDF.
- Code snippets and exports: convert HTML exported from a notes app or editor.
- Testing layouts: check how a small piece of markup looks on a page.
Tips for a good result
- Put your CSS inside a
<style>tag in the HTML you paste. Linked stylesheets from other sites may not load. - Use simple layouts. Very wide tables or fixed-width designs can be clipped at the page edge.
- Use common fonts such as Arial, Georgia or Verdana for the most predictable look.
- Try a short sample first, then paste the full markup.
Good to know before you convert
This tool works with HTML you paste in the box. It does not fetch a web page from a URL. The pages are rendered as images, so text in the PDF is not selectable.
To save a whole website page, open it in your browser and use Print → Save as PDF instead.
Why convert with PDFCloudy
The HTML is rendered by your own browser, so private content like invoices never leaves your device. No account is needed.
More questions about HTML to PDF
Can I paste a website address?
No. Paste HTML markup. For a live page, use your browser's print option and choose Save as PDF.
Why is part of my page cut off?
The content is wider than the page. Set a maximum width, for example max-width: 700px, on the main container.
Can I copy text from the PDF?
No, the pages are images. If you need the text, use OCR PDF on the result.
Can I make the PDF smaller?
Yes. Run it through Compress PDF.
