Api2Pdf releases java client library to convert HTML to PDF and more!

Published Jan 09, 2019

Intro

Since we released Api2Pdf, we have received many requests for a java client library. It’s been on our to-do list, but we just hadn’t gotten around to it yet. We have previous released libraries and SDKs for PHP, Python, C#, and node. You can now convert HTML to PDF with java using our java client library! The library is built as a maven package to make it easy to include in your projects.

View it on Github here.

What is Api2Pdf?

Api2Pdf is a REST API that allows you to generate PDFs at massive scale. The API runs on AWS Lambda, a serverless architecture. Generating PDFs can be CPU intensive and crush your servers. Put that burden on us! Api2Pdf supports the following operations:

  • HTML to PDF
  • URL to PDF
  • Office Docs to PDF
  • Merge PDFs together
  • Generate Barcodes and QR codes

For converting HTML to PDF and URL to PDF, we support two of the most popular PDF engines: Headless Chrome and wkhtmltopdf. For converting office docs to PDF, we offer LibreOffice.
