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 / 2 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 / 3 months ago
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. Not sure if Qt WebKit has similar limits as Chromium. Not that you asked, but I am sitting here silently judging whoever let those pages get that large. Enough html to cap out RAM? Chesterton's Fence dictates that I presume your upstream's hands were tied, but wowee!... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
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 / 5 months ago
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 / 7 months ago
There are other tools for HTML conversion, such as wkhtmltopdf, but in my experience I've found Chrome to be the easiest to work with. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
I remember I used Razor to build HTML that I could then throw into wkhtmltopdf. There is a c# wrapper somewhere on github. Source: 10 months ago
I read your post 2 days ago and while browsing for some unrelated things I came across https://wkhtmltopdf.org/. Source: 10 months ago
It's been a while since I have used it but it worked for me a few years ago. It's a wrapper around https://wkhtmltopdf.org/. Source: 10 months ago
You could also use wkhtmltopdf, which exists both as a CLI tool and a library. I've used it before, it works pretty well. Source: 11 months ago
Wkhtmltopdf - This allows you to turn the html into one long pdf (with some configuration), however the issue is that the local images don't load. Source: about 1 year ago
I’ve had good luck with wkhtmltopdf. Source: about 1 year ago
The only “sane” way I’ve found to be able to deal with pdfs is through this tool https://wkhtmltopdf.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
Of the HTML-based pdf-engines pandoc supports, prince would have the best typography, but I don't like recommending Prince because it's proprietary and costs money. (I try to stick to open source when I can.) wkhtmltopdf is the fastest, but uses a pretty old codebase, and doesn't even support paged/print css. Weasyprint is a little better in my experience, but still has a ways to go typographically. pagedjs-cli is... Source: over 1 year ago
Did you try wkhtmltopdf and WeasyPrint, by any chance? Source: over 1 year ago
Since the srd uses standardized links (base/creature type/creature name) you could make a list of urls based on your selected monsters in a spreadsheet, then use a program like https://wkhtmltopdf.org/, https://www.weenysoft.com/free-html-to-pdf-converter.html, or the url conversion feature in Adobe Acrobat Pro if you combine all the urls into an htm for Acrobat to pull from.

I use the command line to wkhtmltopdf to create pdfs from wrb pages in an automated way. Source: over 1 year ago
Disclaimer: I stopped using many BIFs years ago in favor of dropping down to the command line and either using CFExecute or CFX_Exec[http://adiabata.com/cfx_exec.cfm] to run apps like WKHTMLTOPDF (for PDF generation) and GraphicsMagick (for image manipulation). The result has been faster performance, higher quality results (data or display-wise) and the ability to perform tasks offline and/or concurrently. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
We're doing export from server side with https://wkhtmltopdf.org/ and https://github.com/jhonnymertz/java-wkhtmltopdf-wrapper, but it's for an old project. Now I would also evaluate the Puppeteer solution as proposed by someone else. Source: almost 2 years ago
You might get some mileage out of wkhtmltopdf binaries. Source: almost 2 years ago
There are some other options. You can install wkhtml2pdf and use wkhtml2pdf. In this case, you would write a header HTML file with some CSS on how you want to render the table. Source: about 2 years ago
