How to Set Page Size and Margins in Html2Pdf.app

A practical guide to Html2Pdf.app’s page-size, orientation and margin fields, with an example JSON payload and cURL request.
Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

Set page size and margins in the JSON body of an authenticated POST request to Html2Pdf.app’s generation endpoint, https://api.html2pdf.app/v1/generate. Choose a standard size with format, set orientation separately with landscape, or provide both width and height in pixels for a custom size. Set the four page margins independently with marginTop, marginRight, marginBottom and marginLeft. [Html2Pdf.app documentation]

Send the settings in the generation request

Html2Pdf.app uses an authenticated POST request with JSON. Authentication is supplied in the X-API-Key header. The html field can contain either a publicly reachable URL or raw HTML. The page-size and margin settings are API request options, not steps in a graphical settings panel. [Official documentation] [Official cURL examples]

Example JSON payload

This illustrative payload requests A4 portrait pages and 24 pixels of whitespace on each side. The margin values are examples, not the service defaults; each margin defaults to zero.

{
  "html": "https://example.com/report",
  "format": "A4",
  "landscape": false,
  "marginTop": 24,
  "marginRight": 24,
  "marginBottom": 24,
  "marginLeft": 24
}

Choose a standard page size or custom dimensions

Use a named format

Set format to a documented standard size when it meets the document’s needs. Supported values are Letter, Legal, Tabloid, Ledger, and A0 through A6. The documented default is A4. Use the value as a string, for example "format": "Letter". [Html2Pdf.app documentation]

#1 Best Overall
Amazon Basics Multipurpose Copy Printer Paper, 8.5 x 11 Inches, 20 lb, 92 Bright, White, 1 Ream (500 Sheets), Jam-Free
  • 1 ream (500 sheets) of 8.5 x 11 white copier and printer paper for home or office use
  • Multipurpose letter size copy paper works with laser/inkjet printers, copiers and fax machines
  • Smooth 20lb weight paper for consistent ink and toner distribution; dries quickly and resists paper jams
  • Bright white paper (92 GE; 104 Euro) offers great contrast for crisp printing and vivid color
  • Virgin copy paper providing professional quality results; acid-free to prevent yellowing

Set orientation independently

Set landscape to true for landscape orientation. Its documented default is false, meaning portrait. This setting is separate from the format choice.

Provide both dimensions for a custom page

For a custom page size, set both width and height as integer pixel values. The documentation specifies them as a pair; one field alone does not define the complete custom size. For example, a request could include "width": 800 and "height": 1100 to specify pixel dimensions. These are example values, not a named paper standard. [Html2Pdf.app documentation]

  • marginTop — top margin.
  • marginRight — right margin.
  • marginBottom — bottom margin.
  • marginLeft — left margin.

Each field’s documented default is 0. If the layout needs equal margins, assign the same pixel value to all four fields; otherwise, use different values for the edges that need them. [Html2Pdf.app documentation] [Official cURL examples]

Complete request example with cURL

The following example shows the documented request shape. Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your API key and the example URL with a publicly reachable page or use raw HTML in the JSON body. The documentation describes this request format; this example is not a report of a tested API call.

curl -X POST "https://api.html2pdf.app/v1/generate" 
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" 
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" 
  -d '{
    "html": "https://example.com/report",
    "format": "A4",
    "landscape": false,
    "marginTop": 24,
    "marginRight": 24,
    "marginBottom": 24,
    "marginLeft": 24
  }'

Check rendering before production

Html2Pdf.app says conversions run in headless Chromium, supporting modern HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Output can still vary with CSS media mode, available fonts and resources, and JavaScript load timing. Test representative documents before relying on the generated PDFs in production, especially when the page depends on external assets or scripts. [Html2Pdf.app documentation]
