Preview (optional)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hit &#8220;Preview&#8221; to see how it renders before converting. Better to catch layout issues now than after the PDF is generated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Convert and download<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Click &#8220;Convert to PDF&#8221;, wait a few seconds, and download. Everything runs locally in your browser \u2014 nothing gets uploaded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does the result look like?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pretty much what the HTML looks like when you open it in a browser \u2014 text, images, layout, styles all preserved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few things to keep in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">External resources might not load \u2014 if your HTML references external CSS, fonts, or images with local paths or cross-origin restrictions, they probably won&#8217;t show up in the PDF. Safest approach: inline your CSS in style tags, use base64 or absolute URLs for images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JavaScript doesn&#8217;t execute \u2014 the converter doesn&#8217;t run JS, so anything dynamically generated by scripts won&#8217;t appear. If you need the full rendered content, run the page in your browser first, then copy the final HTML source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Complex layouts may shift \u2014 HTML&#8217;s flexible layout and PDF&#8217;s fixed pages follow different rules. Deeply nested flex layouts and the like might come out slightly off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Simple pages, email templates, document-style HTML \u2014 these all convert cleanly, no issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When you&#8217;d actually use this<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Front-end development \u2014 wrote a page and want to see the PDF output without taking a long screenshot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Email templates \u2014 generate a PDF preview of an HTML email before sending it to clients or teammates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Local HTML files \u2014 downloaded an HTML file but would rather view and share it as a PDF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Document output \u2014 some tools generate reports in HTML format. Converting to PDF makes archiving easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Privacy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everything runs locally in your browser. Your HTML code never gets uploaded to any server. Close the tab and it&#8217;s gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Open&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PDFNeo Web to PDF<\/a>, paste code or upload a file, preview, convert, download.
