The JavaScript engine is fast, can handle complex scripts and exposes in HTML page objects that you can use to manually trigger the conversion or determine various information about the converter during the conversion.

Support for web fonts and open source web format (WOFF)
The HTML to PDF converter can render HTML documents using Web fonts in formats such as Web Open Font Format (WOFF), TrueType or OpenType with TrueType outlines. Web fonts offer Web designers great flexibility to create special effects in the text of an HTML document, because they are no longer limited to a small set of fonts installed on client computers that display the HTML document. Web fonts are downloaded in real time by converter and used to render the HTML document in PDF without installing these fonts on the local machine. The location from which fonts can be downloaded is provided in a CSS3 @ font-face rule.
