About HTML to PDF
HTML to PDF rasterises pasted markup or one uploaded .html file into image-based A4 or Letter pages. Preview and export use the same isolated, script-free document: scripts, nested browsing contexts and executable URL attributes are removed, and the site content-security policy can block remote styles, fonts or images. The result preserves appearance as pixels, not selectable HTML text or live links.

How to use HTML to PDF
Choose Paste HTML or Upload file
Paste markup into the textarea or load one .html or .htm file.
Pick A4 or Letter
The component uses a fixed half-inch PDF margin and an 800 CSS-pixel render width.
Open the preview
Show preview renders the isolated document that will be captured.
Download PDF
The full render is sliced across PDF pages and saved as document.pdf.
Frequently asked questions about HTML to PDF
Does JavaScript in the HTML execute?
No. Script-capable elements and inline event handlers are removed, and the render iframe has no script permission.
Will remote CSS, fonts and images load?
Do not rely on them. The isolated document inherits the site's content-security policy, so off-site subresources can be blocked. Inline CSS and data already inside the markup are the predictable choice; failed resources appear failed in both preview and output.
Is the PDF searchable or interactive?
No. The rendered document is captured to canvases and embedded as PNG page slices. Text selection, form behavior and hyperlink annotations are not preserved.
Why in-browser processing matters
Every PDFChamp tool runs inside this page: the file you choose is read by JavaScript in your own browser and is never sent to a server, so nothing is uploaded, queued, or stored anywhere. That removes the upload wait, the processing queue, and the question of what happens to your file afterwards — the PDFChamp overview compares this architecture with server-side PDF tools.
