May I also suggest a free alternative called
Flying Saucer

https://xhtmlrenderer.dev.java.net/

Its a java library with IText support(JRuby if you want more
possibilities) and there are plugins out there for doing the
conversions for you.


Search github for Acts_as_flying_saucer


In essence, Its Prince PDf without the 4k price tag

cheers..
Abe
