What is PDFShift?

PDFShift is a hosted API for developers that converts HTML, CSS and URLs into PDF documents, website screenshots and Open Graph images. It renders pages with full CSS support, including web fonts, flexbox and grid, and allows custom headers, footers, injected CSS and JavaScript. Templates can be stored for faster conversions, and results can be delivered to an S3 bucket. It suits invoice generation, report exports, preview images and social banners, and integrates with automation tools. It is sold with a free plan of monthly credits and paid plans based on conversion volume.
