How our URL to PDF converter renders a page

Most "save webpage as PDF" tricks rely on your browser's print dialog, which works until a site hides half its content behind print styles or you need the same result on a phone. We built HTML to PDF around a real headless Chromium browser running on our server in Germany. It opens the page the way a first-time visitor would, waits for it to load, and prints it to a PDF at A4 or Letter size, portrait or landscape. Because it is an actual browser engine, modern layouts, web fonts and images come through the way you see them on screen.

You can give it a URL or an .html file of up to 50 MB. Uploading a file is the better choice for pages you generated yourself, such as an exported report, an invoice template or an email saved as HTML. Everything travels over HTTPS and is deleted as soon as the PDF is returned; we keep no copy.

There are honest limits. The converter can only reach public http and https pages, so anything behind a login, on a private network or on localhost is blocked on purpose, for security. Cookie banners and paywalls may appear in the PDF exactly as they would to a new visitor, and very heavy pages that take longer than about 60 seconds to render will time out. For a logged-in page, we suggest saving it as HTML from your own browser and uploading that file instead.

Our take

We reach for HTML to PDF when we need a frozen copy of something online: a product page before a price changes, terms of service on the day we agreed to them, or an article we want to annotate offline.

Our habit is to try the URL first and switch to an uploaded HTML file if the result shows a cookie wall or a login screen. Landscape tends to suit wide dashboards and tables, while portrait A4 reads better for articles.

What we would not use it for: archiving pages that only load after you sign in, or sites that keep loading content while you scroll. Those need a saved HTML file or a screenshot, not a remote render.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert a webpage to PDF?+

Paste the page's public URL, pick A4 or Letter and an orientation, then click Convert to PDF. The rendered PDF downloads when it is ready.

Can I convert a page that needs a login?+

No. Our server only sees public pages. Save the page as HTML in your own browser and upload that file instead.

Why is there a cookie banner in my PDF?+

The page is opened like a first visit, so consent banners and paywalls can show up. Uploading a saved HTML file usually avoids this.

Is my file or URL stored?+

No. It is processed over HTTPS on our server in Germany and deleted immediately after the PDF is created.

Can I convert localhost or intranet pages?+

No. Private networks and localhost are blocked for security. Upload the HTML file instead.

What is the size limit?+

HTML uploads can be up to 50 MB, and a page must finish rendering within about 60 seconds.
