HTML2PDF CLI Version

HTML2PDF will be installed as command line-tool, too. The program HTML2PDFCLI.exe is located in the installation folder and can be called like this:

HTML2PDFCLI.exe [url] [file] ((--quiet) (--use-preconfig=1) (--license=...) ([options]))

Example:

HTML2PDFCLI.exe http://www.news.de/ news.pdf --quiet --use-preconfig
  • quiet: Don’t send output to the console
  • use-preconfig: Read the configuration from the Windows registry (as saved at the last exit of the client software (GUI))
  • license: The license key to use (if not saved in the registry, or you want to use another one for this execution)

Possible options are all parameters that are described in the PDF documentation (German language). You have to use this format:

--[key](=[value])

Example:

"--header=Center text"

Options with spaces have to be quoted. If the option is a flag, a missing value would set the value to „true“.

Example:

--nolinks

This option would disable creating links in the PDF file.

If you want to send the PDF bytes to STDOUT, you can set „-“ as filename.
