This modules converts HTML code to PDF or Image files using libwkhtmltox
(aka wkhtmltopdf
, wkhtmltoimage
). It does not run wkhtmltopdf
or wkhtmltoimage
binaries thus
no extra CPU/memory cost for each conversion operation. It is suitable for batch
HTML to PDF/Image conversions.
Note: This is currently experimental and API may change. Please DO NOT use in a production environment.
