How to convert html to pdf?

Question

JavaScript

Hello, I think the essence of the question is clear, let's get to the point.
In my projects, to get a pdf file from an html structure, I used mPdf (php). Now we need to create a site using node.js, respectively, we need to find a way to get pdf either on the client (js) or on the server (node.js).
Found 2 plugins: jsPdf.js and PdfMake.js.
The first one doesn't have utf-8 support. The second one did not find how to prescribe some styles (for example, border-top, etc.), plus there is no own parser.
Actually, can anyone come across this and be able to suggest any solution to the problem?

Answer 1

For ~10 years, I have been terribly tormented with various plugins and a module "under the language" and recently discovered a third-party wkhtmltopdf utility. I think that the tool is better, just not to be found. The only negative is that you need to write a separate service to convert your requests into a command, but this is work for an hour, maximum.

Answer 2

It seems that PhantomJS gives the best results .
