I see that HTML doc doesn't support CSS, but it is pending.

Are there any HTML to PDF packages that do that you would recommend?  I will
be in need of something like this by the end of the month, just wanted to
see if anyone had any solutions for it. I've used PDFlib and ezPDF before,
but this time I have the need to take an HTML page (which is dynamically
created and uses CSS) and produce it as a PDF.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Tom

HTMLDOC is a great app but it could be many things. Did your HTML change? Is
the HTML for the PDF generated dynamically? If so, perhaps someone entered a
strange character or something else that is creating the bad PDF. Have you
checked the HTMLDOC forums?

http://htmldoc.org/

Does it generate some pages correctly and not others? I usually have to work
it down until I can find a hanging white space or stray tag that is
problematic. Does the PDF open in any other reader? The encryption might be
causing an issue, are you using that? Best bet is to try to recreate the
error in a controlled environment, ie. simple HTML.

Good Luck
