Python developers often face trouble when converting simple or HTML content into downloadable file formats such as PDFs. This is because they insert HTML text directly into projects, and there might be some formatting or hyperlink issues as well. Therefore, PDFKit comes as an effective tool to convert data in complex programming languages. 

Using this conversion tool, you can modify web content and convert it into files in portable document formats like PDFs. The method is simple and can be done quickly, so developers can easily create content in multiple languages. This software uses a layout rendering engine, Webkit, that allows users to render web pages in simple PDF form. 

 

PDFKit uses a rendering engine to convert HTML content into high-quality PDF Python files without any coding or directory errors.
Features:

  • It is a Python wrapper that converts web pages like HTML into downloadable PDF files so you can get an error-free copy of your content. 
  • It supports multiple languages like JAVA and Python and offers excellent CSS support for various HTML to PDF conversion tasks. 
  • You can use the PDFKit module to render HTML into different formats, including PDF, images, HTML, and complex printable documents. 
  • It uses wkhtmltopdf and Webkit engine to display web content by rendering the HTML text into simpler PDF format. 
  • It is easy to install, and you can generate PDFs in three simple ways. You can create the PDF files from a website URL, from an HTML file, or a string.
  • It perfectly runs on all devices and uses the same directory for input and output so developers can easily get the generated version. 

 

PDFKit is a versatile utility that is easy to operate and flexible. All you have to do is install this utility on your windows. Then, you have to install the rendering engine, wkhtmltopdf, which will convert the web pages into simpler formats. Once done, you can generate PDF files by executing proper codes into the input and output sections. Your file will be generated in the same directory, so you can easily find it in your local storage device.
