Percollate is a Node.js command-line tool that converts web pages into readable, well-formatted PDF, EPUB, HTML, or Markdown documents. It combines readability extraction with Puppeteer rendering and supports bundling multiple URLs, local files, or stdin input.

Use cases

  • save web articles as clean pdfs for offline reading
  • convert web pages to epub for my e-reader
  • extract readable markdown from a url
  • bundle multiple blog posts into one pdf
  • turn an rss feed into an ebook
  • strip ads and clutter from web pages before printing

When to choose

  • you want reader-view style PDF/EPUB output from web pages via the command line
  • you need to batch-convert or bundle multiple URLs into a single document
  • you want customizable output via CSS, templates, or Markdown conversion

When to avoid

  • you need a GUI or browser-extension reader mode
  • you need pixel-perfect capture of complex JavaScript-heavy pages rather than readable text
  • you cannot install Node.js and Puppeteer dependencies
