A simple webservice that turns webpages into pdf's using the headless Chrome API.
The API takes a webpage as input and turns it into a PDF file in the same way that Chrome does it when you save a page as a PDF.
The following query parameters can be passed:
- url — The url to capture.
- margin — Paper margins, defaults to none.
- printBackground — Print background graphics. Defaults to false. Useful when you want
background-imagestyles to be printed. - pageRange — Paper ranges to print, e.g., '1-5, 8, 11-13'. Defaults to the empty string, which means print all pages.
- displayHeaderFooter — Display header and footer. Defaults to
false. - landscape — Paper orientation. Defaults to
false. - download — Prompt download. Defaults to
false. - filename — When
?download=trueis applied, the filename is by defaultdownload.pdf. You can change this by passing?filename=random_filename.pdfanother filename.
