Context and Problem Statement🔗
How can HTML documents be converted into a PDF file that looks as much as possible like the original?
It would be nice to have a java-only solution. But if an external tool has a better outcome, then an external tool is fine, too.
Since Docspell is free software, the tools must also be free.
Considered Options🔗
- pandoc external command
- wkhtmltopdf external command
- Unoconv external command
Native (firefox) view:
I downloaded the HTML file to disk together with its resources (using Save as... in the browser).
Pandoc🔗
Not showing the version using context pdf-engine, since it looked
very similiar to the latex variant.
wkhtmltopdf🔗
Unoconv🔗
Decision Outcome🔗
wkhtmltopdf.
It shows the best results.
