Frequently asked questions

Inline CSS and embedded stylesheets are applied when rendering. External stylesheets linked via href are loaded if accessible. CSS print media rules (@media print) are specifically designed for PDF/print output and are applied. Complex CSS features like flexbox and grid are generally supported. CSS animations and transitions are not rendered (PDFs are static). JavaScript-dependent dynamic content may not render correctly.
Use CSS page-break properties: page-break-before: always forces a new page before an element. page-break-after: always forces a break after. page-break-inside: avoid prevents elements like tables from splitting across pages. Modern CSS uses break-before, break-after, and break-inside with the same values. These are part of the CSS Paged Media specification, supported by most HTML to PDF converters.
