A Python 3 wrapper around the wkhtmltopdf utility that converts HTML, URLs, or strings into PDF documents using Webkit rendering. It exposes wkhtmltopdf options through a simple Python API and is now deprecated following the upstream wkhtmltopdf project's status.
Use cases
- convert html to pdf in python
- generate pdf from url
- render html report as pdf
- batch convert html files to pdf
- generate invoices as pdf from templates
When to choose
- you already depend on wkhtmltopdf and need a thin Python wrapper
- you need quick HTML-to-PDF conversion with headers, footers, and TOC support
- your environment already has a patched wkhtmltopdf binary installed
When to avoid
- starting a new project, since both this library and wkhtmltopdf are deprecated
- you need actively maintained rendering or modern CSS support (consider WeasyPrint or headless Chrome)
- you cannot install external native binaries
