About:
PlutoPrint is a Python-based tool that converts HTML and CSS into high-fidelity PDFs and images. It leverages a headless browser to ensure modern web standards are fully supported, providing a reliable alternative to older conversion libraries. This makes it ideal for generating dynamic reports, invoices, and visual assets programmatically.
Key Features:
  • Headless browser rendering for modern web standards
  • Support for PDF, PNG, and JPEG output formats
  • Programmatic API for easy integration into applications
  • Handles complex CSS, Flexbox, and Grid layouts
Use Cases:
  • Generating dynamic PDF invoices and reports from HTML templates
  • Creating social media preview images from web content
  • Automating screenshot capture for web applications
Alternatives:
  • WeasyPrint – WeasyPrint is CSS-focused but lacks full JavaScript execution, whereas PlutoPrint uses a browser for complete rendering fidelity.
  • Puppeteer – Puppeteer is a Node.js library; PlutoPrint offers a Python-native wrapper for similar browser automation capabilities.
