HTML to PDF for developers and marketers

Export landing pages, email templates, receipts, and saved .html files as print-ready PDFs. RatPDF uses the iText html2pdf engine with Noto fonts for reliable Unicode (₹, €, CJK where supported).

What converts well

Self-contained HTML with inline or embedded CSS
Invoice and receipt templates with tables
Static reports exported from BI tools as HTML

Common pitfalls

External stylesheets with relative paths may not resolve — use absolute URLs or inline CSS.
Web fonts must be reachable or embedded in the HTML.
JavaScript-rendered content is not executed — export static HTML first.

Compare with Word to PDF for office documents and Text to PDF for plain notes.
