OPEN HTML TO PDF

OVERVIEW

Open HTML to PDF is a pure-Java library for rendering arbitrary well-formed XML/XHTML (and even HTML5) using CSS 2.1 for layout and formatting, outputting to PDF or images.

Use this library to generated nice looking PDF documents. But be aware that you can not throw modern HTML5+ at this engine and expect a great result. You must special craft the HTML document for this library and use it's extended CSS feature like #31 or #32 to get good results. Avoid floats near page breaks and use table layouts.

GETTING STARTED

DIFFERENCES WITH FLYING SAUCER

  • Uses the well-maintained and open-source (LGPL compatible) PDFBOX as PDF library, rather than iText.
  • Proper support for generating accessible PDFs (Section 508, PDF/UA, WCAG 2.0).
  • Proper support for generating PDF/A standards compliant PDFs.
  • New, faster renderer means this project can be several times faster for very large documents.
  • Better support for CSS3 transforms.
  • Automatic visual regression testing of PDFs, with many end-to-end tests.
  • Ability to insert pages for cut-off content.
  • Built-in plugins for SVG and MathML.
  • Font fallback support.
  • Limited support for RTL and bi-directional documents.
  • On the negative side, no support for OpenType fonts.
  • Much more. See changelog below.

Open HTML to PDF uses a couple of FOSS packages to get the job done. A list of these can be found in the dependency graph.

FAQ

  • OPEN HTML TO PDF is tested with OpenJDK 8 and 11. We are not currently testing with Oracle JDKs. As of RC18, it requires at least Java 8 to run.
  • No, you can not use it on Android.
  • You should be able to use it on Google App Engine (Java 8 or greater environment). Let us know your experience.
  • Flowing columns are not implemented. Implemented in RC12.
  • No, it's not a web browser. Specifically, it does not run javascript or implement many modern standards such as flex and grid layout.

TEST CASES

Test cases, failing or working are welcome, please place them in /openhtmltopdf-examples/src/main/resources/testcases/ and run them from /openhtmltopdf-examples/src/main/java/com/openhtmltopdf/testcases/TestcaseRunner.java.

  • #333 Upgraded PDFBox to 2.0.14 and PDFBox-Graphics2D to 0.21.
