web2pdf

This project consists of two parts:

1. A CLI tool that converts web pages to PDFs
2. A wrapper around chromiumoxide that allows for a more streamlined experience when creating PDFs

The main new feature compared to other PDF converters is the ability to create a single page PDF, that fits to the content, instead of a standard multi-page PDF.

It also allows provides the ability to use screen instead of printing CSS, thereby converting exactly what the user sees on the screen.

Setup

1. Install chromium
2. cargo install web2pdf

Usage

For the CLI tool, run "web2pdf --help"

Examle usage:

web2pdf --mono --screen --disable-backgrounds "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_(programming_language)" rust.pdf

web2pdf "document.html" rust.pdf
(Warning: Paths relative to home are not supported e.g. ~/document.html but /home/user/document.html will work)
