This project is a demo of exporting HTML content as PDFs using various html-to-pdf libraries. It features a lengthy styled table so that we can explore pieces of functionality like table column headers, table footers, page headers and footers, page numbers, and table styles.
I've included several PDFs in the example-exports
directory containing the output from the various libraries I explored.
This project is set up in the simplest way possible: no build tools, just an index.html
file and some JavaScript files. The main JavaScript file is called pdfExportMethods.js
and contains the setup code for each PDF export option. The other JavaScript files are the third-party libraries that I've included in the project rather than pulling from a CDN.
Since there are no build tools included, simply use a static site hosting tool of your choice to run this locally. Some of my favorites are MAMP (or WAMP or LAMP) or the VS Code "Live Server" extension.
