PDF Print Engine - Reliable HTML-to-PDF Conversion for Production

If you’ve ever tried generating PDFs in a web app, you already know the pain.

What looks perfect in the browser suddenly shifts, breaks, or crashes when you try to export it.

And when your app is under load, those nice-looking exports can suddenly turn into memory leaks or 30-second timeouts.

That’s why we built PDF Print Engine - a production-ready HTML-to-PDF converter that just works.

It takes your HTML + data and streams a PDF directly to your API response - no heavy setup, no flaky rendering.

The Problem: HTML to PDF, the Hard Way

Every team building exports or reports eventually hits the same wall:

🧱 Browser-based renderers (like Puppeteer) are slow and fragile.
🧠 Headless Chromium instances eat memory and need constant babysitting.
🪄 “Simple” libraries block your process by buffering entire PDFs in RAM.
⚙️ Under real traffic, things break - queue overloads, timeouts, or missing assets.

We wanted something simpler, but still reliable enough for production.

The Solution: Streamlined PDF Generation

PDF Print Engine turns any HTML template into a beautiful, predictable PDF stream.

You feed it your markup and data - it returns a PDF instantly, with minimal memory footprint.

What makes it different

⚡ Zero friction: Feed HTML + data → get a PDF stream instantly.
🧩 Lightweight and scalable: Streams output instead of buffering it in memory.
💡 Templating freedom: Supports both Squirrelly and EJS out of the box.
🛠️ TypeScript ready: Ships with full typings and ESM/CommonJS support.
🧱 Production-grade: Stable defaults, consistent layout, and safe rendering.
