PDF generation API for developers

Code examples

Authenticate with the X-API-Key header. The response body is the PDF binary — write it directly to a file. All examples use the /v1/generate/url endpoint for brevity.

cURL

curl -X POST https://api.prettypdfprinter.com/v1/generate/url \
  -H "X-API-Key: your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"url": "https://example.com/article", "template": "clean"}' \
  -o output.pdf

Python

import requests

resp = requests.post(
    "https://api.prettypdfprinter.com/v1/generate/url",
    headers={"X-API-Key": "your_api_key"},
    json={"url": "https://example.com/article", "template": "clean"}
)
with open("output.pdf", "wb") as f:
    f.write(resp.content)

JavaScript

const resp = await fetch("https://api.prettypdfprinter.com/v1/generate/url", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "X-API-Key": "your_api_key",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ url: "https://example.com/article", template: "clean" })
});
const pdf = await resp.arrayBuffer();
// Save or stream the PDF binary
