Intro

Here at Api2Pdf, we are proud to announce a new client library for nodejs! Our node library makes it easy to convert HTML to PDF, URL to PDF, Word to PDF, and Merge PDFs together. We support a number of endpoints such as wkhtmltopdf, Headless Chrome, and LibreOffice.

Api2Pdf is an HTML to PDF API that runs on AWS Lambda, allowing it scale to millions of requests with no rate limits or file size limits.
