WeasyPrint is a powerful open-source visual rendering engine that converts HTML and CSS documents into high-quality PDF files. Designed for developers and designers, it transforms modern web content into paginated, print-ready documents using a simple command-line interface or Python API.
Features of WeasyPrint:
- Converts web content into pixel-perfect PDFs.
- Supports modern CSS features like flexbox, custom fonts, page breaks, and media queries.
- Ideal for generating invoices, reports, certificates, or printable documents from web applications.
- No dependency on browser engines — WeasyPrint uses its own rendering engine built on Cairo, Pango, and other libraries.
- Scriptable using Python, making it suitable for automation and integration into web frameworks like Django and Flask.
To generate a PDF using WeasyPrint:
$ weasyprint https://example.com output.pdf
System Requirements: WeasyPrint depends on system libraries such as Cairo, Pango, and GDK-PixBuf. These are automatically installed in most Linux setups using a virtual environment and pip.
