From: Oltmans on 8 Mar 2010 10:36 Hi Python superstars, Guys, any ideas on how to convert HTML files to PDF files? Or as an alternative, how to convert HTML files to an image file(jpeg/png/etc)? Ideally, the converted PDF/Image file should like exactly like the way HTML file looks in the browser. I really have no idea about this so I will really appreciate all the help. Thanks in advance and kindly pardon my ignorance. Thanks, Oltmans

How an HTML file looks in *a* (not *the*) browser depends on the browser, its settings, and window size. That is both a virtue and a reason for the invention of pdf format. >> I really have no idea about this so I will really appreciate all the >> help.
