URL to a PDF
IronPDF for Python can convert online webpages into PDFs.
This code example uses the RenderUrlAsPdf
method in Java. The method will return a PdfDocument
object, which can then be exported using the saveAs
method.
PdfDocument.renderUrlAsPdf
accepts a String
containing an absolute (fully formed) URL to a web page. IronPDF will retrieve the HTML content returned from an HTTP request for the URL and faithfully transform it into its PDF version. Developers can supply login credentials (username and password) that renderUrlAsPdf
can use for this HTTP request by including a ChromeHttpLoginCredentials
object as an optional, second parameter. This is useful for accessing web pages locked within a password-protected website directory. Refer to the API Reference for more information about the ChromeHttpLoginCredentials
class.
It is really a brilliant way to download PDFs from URLs in Java.

Also, see the ChromePdfRenderOptions
API Reference page for details on how to customize the look and feel of PDF documents midway through their conversion from HTML web pages.
