Can this convert a html/css document to PDF? or is chrome headless(ignoring overhead) the way to go these days?

  to some extent - using com.lowagie.text.html.simpleparser.HTMLWorker (more like if you have really simple html and css, you can generate a PDF doc out of those - which works well for various reports). Although if you are looking to convert real web pages to PDF, then this is not a good choice.

  Prince (commercial) is outstanding, and supports a wide array of issues specific to printed media.

    $495 for desktop license and $3800 for server. I would love to have something this for the times I could use it, but realistically that’s only once or twice per year. I feel the same way about Adobe’s Creative suite subscription. I use it’s unique capabilities about once every 6 months. I wish there was a one week license.
