▣ FILE CONVERSION

Convert HTML Content to PDF API

What it does

HTML to PDF renders an HTML content string into a PDF, either as a direct download or as a signed link you can fetch later. Send the HTML in body.content, and choose whether the output should be landscape with the landscape query parameter.

Use POST /download when you want a PDF binary response immediately. Use POST /link when you want a URI in the data field instead. That makes it easy to separate generation from delivery in workflows where you store, queue, or pass around the file later.

This is a good fit for generating invoices, reports, receipts, or any page-like document from server-side HTML. Because the input is raw HTML, you can render your own templates and control layout before converting them to PDF.

The service keeps the interface simple: one required HTML payload, one optional layout flag, and two output modes depending on whether you need the file now or a signed link.
