Getting Started

To use this Docker application, you'll need to have Docker installed on your system. If Docker is not installed, please follow the instructions on the official Docker website to install it.

Run using Command Line Interface

To run docker container as CLI you should share the folder with html file to process using -i parameter. In this example it's current folder. The url can be local html file or URL address.

docker run -v $(pwd):/data/ -w /data/ pdfix/html-to-pdf:latest html-to-pdf -i index.html -o convert.pdf

With PDFix License add these arguments.

--name ${LICENSE_NAME} --key ${LICENSE_KEY}

First run will pull the docker image, which may take some time. Make your own image for more advanced use.
