@brightraj,

You can either use Aspose.Words for .NET (if you are using Xamarin.Android platform) or Aspose.Words for Android via Java API to convert HTML document to PDF on your Android devices. The code will look like this:

Document doc = new Document("E:\\temp\\input.html");
doc.save("E:\\temp\\19.2.pdf");

You can also perform HTML to PDF conversion by using Aspose.PDF for Android via Java API. Please refer to Aspose.PDF for Android via Java documentation for details:

Please let us know if you need more information; we are always glad to help you.

@brightraj,

What Aspose API (Aspose.Words or Aspose.PDF) are you getting this problem with?

Please ZIP and upload your input HTML file (along with any external CSS files) and Aspose generated PDF file showing the undesired behavior here for testing. We will then investigate the issue on our end and provide you more information.

@brightraj,

There is following line in your “another_page.html” file:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style/style.css" title="style" />

Please make sure that both style.css and another_page.html files are in the same folder.

In case the problem still remains, please also attach this style.css and the actual Aspose.Words generated PDF (not the screenshot) file here for further testing. Thanks for your cooperation.

@brightraj,

But, this is how your HTML appears in browsers on our end:

Please make sure that both style.css and another_page.html files are in the same folder.

In case the problem still remains, please also ZIP and attach this style.css file here for further testing. Thanks for your cooperation.

Ok . But the original html file looks like what i sent in the attachment . I do not have the style.css because i downloaded the html from site. Can you test and share any sample html file contains text,image etc . So we both are in same observation.

@brightraj,

It looks like your web browser has cached the CSS file.

Generally, Aspose.Words mimics the behavior of MS Word i.e. if you convert the HTML file to PDF by using Aspose.Words, the output will look similar to what MS Word produces.

However, it is not always guaranteed that the Aspose.Words and MS Word generated output documents will look exactly the same as the input HTML file shown in web browsers. This is because Aspose.Words was originally designed to work with Microsoft Word documents and HTML documents are quite different. Hope, this helps.

So how to over come this issue? Anything there

@brightraj,

Please make sure that both style.css and another_page.html files are in the same folder. Also, please refer to the following article.
