Using iText to convert HTML to PDF

2018-07-01 18:08:35

Does anyone know if it is possible to convert a HTML page (url) to a PDF using iText?

If the answer is 'no' than that is OK as well since I will stop wasting my time trying to work it out and just spend some money on one of a number of components which I know can :)

Thanks in advance for your responses!

Flying Saucer's primary purpose is to render spec-compliant XHTML and CSS 2.1 to the screen as a Swing component. Though it was originally intended for embedding markup into desktop applications (things like the iTunes Music Store), Flying Saucer has been extended work with iText as well. This makes it very easy to render XHTML to PDFs, as well as to images and to the screen. Flying Saucer requires Java 1.4 or higher.

I have ended up using ABCPdf from webSupergoo. It works really well and for about $350 it has saved me hours and hours based on your comments above. Thanks again Daniel and Bratch for your comments.

The easiest way of doing this is using pdfHTML. It's an iText7 add-on that converts HTML5 (+CSS3) into pdf syntax.

The code is pretty straightforward:

    HtmlConverter.convertToPdf(
        "<b>This text should be written in bold.</b>",       // html to be converted
        new PdfWriter(
            new File("C://users/mark/documents/output.pdf")  // destination file
        )
    );
