How do I generate a PDF from HTML in Laravel?

Install the PHP SDK via Composer: composer require html-to-pdf-api/php-sdk. Then call HtmlToPdf::fromHtml($html)->save('invoice.pdf'). One line. No headless browser required.

Does the HTML to PDF API work without a framework?

Yes. Any language that can make an HTTP POST request works — plain PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, curl. Send JSON with your HTML or URL, receive a PDF back.

Is there a free tier?

Yes. The free tier includes 200 pages/day with no credit card required. Paid plans start at $29/month for higher volume.

What is a good alternative to wkhtmltopdf or Puppeteer?

HTML to PDF API is a hosted REST API alternative. No binary to install, no server dependencies, no headless browser process to manage. Call the API and get a PDF — that's it.
