Really nice work.
I've had a great experience working with Headless Chrome to convert webpages to PDF for my side project EmailThis (https://www.emailthis.me https://www.emailthis.me).
It uses Puppeteer by Chrome DevTools team - https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer.
- esbenp 9y agoAppreciate it. EmailThis lookes very cool! I have considered using Puppeteer for pdf-bot, it came out right after I finished it :-)
- RepressedEmu 9y agoJust a heads up -- your site emailthis.me is down.
- bharani_m 9y agoSorry about the brief downtime. It's back up now.
- johnwaynedoe 9y agoCool project! I think I am going to start regularly making use of it. Does it email you a PDF attachment, or does it just send an email with the contents of the article within it? When I attempted to use it I did not see a pdf attachment. Regardless/either way, really cool project.
- bharani_m 9y agoThanks, if it is unable to extract useful content from a page, EmailThis will save it as PDF as send it as an attachmentment. If you try saving a any discussion website (HN, Stackoverflow, Reddit), you will get the PDF.
