Hi,
I tried to convert HTML to PDF using Aspose.Words , Aspose.PDF and Aspose.HTML. All of these packages can have the job done.
I would really appreciate if anyone knows what are the specific differences between these three software packages that provide HTML to PDF conversion functionality? I wonder which software package should I choose better?
When choosing a package for converting HTML to PDF, you have three options: Aspose.Words, Aspose.PDF, and Aspose.HTML. Each of these packages has its own strengths and use cases, which can influence your decision based on your specific requirements.
Aspose.Words: This package is primarily designed for working with Word documents, but it also supports HTML to PDF conversion. It is particularly useful if you need to manipulate Word documents or if your HTML content is closely related to Word processing features. The conversion results may differ from those produced by other packages due to the underlying API used.
Aspose.PDF: This package is focused on PDF manipulation and creation. It provides robust features for converting HTML to PDF, especially if your HTML content is complex or requires precise formatting. Aspose.PDF is a good choice if your primary goal is to work with PDF files and you need advanced PDF features.
Aspose.HTML: This package is specifically designed for handling HTML content. It offers a straightforward approach to convert HTML to PDF, making it suitable for scenarios where HTML is the main focus. If your project heavily relies on HTML and you want to ensure that the conversion maintains the integrity of the HTML layout, Aspose.HTML might be the best option.
In summary, if your work is primarily with Word documents, go for Aspose.Words. If you need advanced PDF features, choose Aspose.PDF. For projects focused on HTML, Aspose.HTML is likely the best fit. Consider your specific needs and the complexity of your HTML content when making your choice.
@Ergolus You should note, that Aspose.Words is designed to work with MS Word documents. HTML documents and MS Word documents object models are quite different and it is not always possible to provide 100% fidelity after conversion one model to another. In most cases Aspose.Words mimics MS Word behavior when work with HTML. So if you are expecting the output PDF document look like it look when you open HTML document in MS Word, then you can use Aspose.Words for conversion.
