• Htmldocs: Typeset and Generate PDFs with HTML/CSS

  Wkhtmltopdf[1] uses the QT WebKit renderer. I used it as part of my job hut work-flow with pandoc to get pdf resumes from markdown. It got me a job, so there's that. [1] https://wkhtmltopdf.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

  I've been using WkhtmlToPdf all this while, so this seems a better option to try since it's pure Ruby. https://wkhtmltopdf.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Show HN: Generate pdf with gitbook or mdbook url

  In 2014 we used wkhtmltopdf[0] to generate PDF copies of Cloudfoundry docs for every version every release, and maybe that's what I'd reach for now.

• Writerside – a new technical writing environment from JetBrains

  In most cases no, AsciiDoctor-PDF converter uses the Ruby library PDF library Prawn to generate PDFs, However, there are alternative PDF converters which do convert from HTML (the VSC AsciiDoctor plug-in allows the option to use a different converter), but I don't think they use chrome. Please note that using different pdf converters is a bit of an advanced topic. https://wkhtmltopdf.org/, and asciidoctor-web-pdf. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Generate invoice PDF file using HTML template

  There are multiple options for how to convert HTML to PDF, one could be by using open-source projects like Puppeteer or wkhtmltopdf. I wrote a separate post How to convert HTML to PDF using Puppeteer, but now for simplicity, I going to use html2pdf.app. Its free plan gives 100 credits per month, excellent! - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
