A Java based wrapper for the wkhtmltopdf command line tool. As the name implies, it uses WebKit to convert HTML documents to PDFs.
wkhtmltopdf must be installed and working on your system.
Make sure you have Java Wrapper dependency added to your project.
If you are using Gradle/Maven, see example below:
In your build.gradle:
allprojects {
repositories {
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.jhonnymertz:java-wkhtmltopdf-wrapper:1.1.1-RELEASE'
}In your pom.xml:
<dependencies>
<dependency>

</repositories>Pdf pdf = new Pdf();
pdf.addPageFromString("<html><head><meta charset=\"utf-8\"></head><h1>Müller</h1></html>");
pdf.addPageFromUrl("http://www.google.com");
// Add a Table of Contents
pdf.addToc();
// The `wkhtmltopdf` shell command accepts different types of options such as global, page, headers and footers, and toc. Please see `wkhtmltopdf -H` for a full explanation.
// All options are passed as array, for example:
pdf.addParam(new Param("--no-footer-line"), new Param("--header-html", "file:///header.html"));
pdf.addParam(new Param("--enable-javascript"));
// Add styling for Table of Contents
pdf.addTocParam(new Param("--xsl-style-sheet", "my_toc.xsl"));
// Save the PDF
pdf.saveAs("output.pdf");
XvfbConfig xc = new XvfbConfig();
xc.addParams(new Param("--auto-servernum"), new Param("--server-num=1"));
WrapperConfig wc = new WrapperConfig();
wc.setXvfbConfig(xc);
Pdf pdf = new Pdf(wc);
pdf.addPageFromUrl("http://www.google.com");
pdf.saveAs("output.pdf");
