Convert HTML into a Clean, Printable PDF
or drop files here
Hand it a saved page, an exported report or a snippet of markup and get paginated text with working links. No script on the page is executed and no byte is posted anywhere, so internal pages are fine to convert.
Markup in, paged document out.
Add the HTML
Drop a .html, .htm or .xhtml file, or switch to the paste box. A full document and a bare fragment without html or body tags are both fine.
Pick a print layout
Choose paper, orientation, margins and text size, serif or sans text, page numbers, and compact tables for anything wide.
Paginate and save
The markup is parsed, rebuilt as a document and broken into pages. When the result card appears, save the PDF wherever you like.
When the words matter more than the styling.
HTML is everywhere, from email receipts to exported reports. These are the jobs where a clean, readable PDF of its content beats a screenshot of the page.
Filing HTML receipts
Many billing systems send receipts as HTML email. Converting the saved message keeps the line items and totals as a fixed record for your accounts folder.
Docs for offline reading
A reference page saved from a documentation site becomes numbered pages you can annotate on a tablet or read on a flight with no connection.
One article from a CMS export
Paste just the article element and you get the headings, body and tables without the sidebar, cookie banner or menu that wrap it on the live site.
Proofing newsletter copy
Circulate the words and links of an email template as a PDF for sign-off. Reviewers check the wording here, while the visual design is judged in the mail client.
Tables produced by scripts
Test summaries, database dumps and static site output often arrive as plain HTML tables. They become ruled tables that span pages with the heading row repeated.
Reading a suspicious attachment
Since no script is executed, an HTML attachment from an unknown sender can be turned into a static PDF so you can read it without opening it in a browser. Check link addresses before clicking any.
A re-layout, not a screenshot.
Pandoc reads the markup and keeps only its meaning: heading levels, paragraphs, bold and italic, ordered and bulleted lists, block quotes, preformatted code, tables, links and any images embedded in the file. Everything that only controls appearance, from stylesheets and web fonts to flexbox columns and background colours, is set aside.
Typst then typesets that skeleton from scratch, using your paper size, margins and text size. Paragraphs are justified, tables get thin rules, and nothing is clipped at the edge of the page the way a wide website can be when printed.
One thing to trim first: navigation menus and footers inside the file are content too, so they print as lists and paragraphs. Paste only the part you care about when the page is cluttered.
