Thanks for posting this. I was actually just today looking for a solutions to render a website as a PDF, and didn’t get as far as puppeteer – which is probably too heavy a dependency for my use case, but is still nice to know about. Does anyone know of a print-oriented web-browser that understands CSS? It seems like the kind of thing that would be useful to many.

  Thanks for writing that up! I had no idea about paged.js and it’s pretty close to what I was looking for.

A few years ago I used wkhtml2pdf, which is a version of Qt webkit focused to turning webpages to PDF. Looked up the project, and it looks like it's almost dead due to Qt dropping webkit, though.
