PDFmyURL review
A focused choice for automating URL, HTML, and website-to-PDF workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
PDFmyURL is a cloud service for turning web pages, raw HTML, complete websites, URL lists, and sitemaps into PDF documents. It serves individuals, businesses, and enterprise teams that need web-based reports, invoices, documentation, archives, or other repeatable PDF outputs. Access is available through the web, REST API, and Chrome extension, with embeddable Save as PDF links for publishing conversion workflows in other contexts.
Pricing separates individual browser-based work from automated conversion. The Personal License costs $15 per year and includes browser PDF creation, layout options, headers and footers, watermarks, and password protection. Starter costs $20 per month and adds Save as PDF links, URL/HTML-to-PDF API access, batch URL-to-PDF API conversion, and entire-website conversion. Professional costs $40 per month, while Advanced costs $70 per month; both list the same core highlights as Starter. The key buying distinction is therefore the move from a low-cost personal license to monthly plans built around automation and larger conversion workflows.
Its strongest fit is a narrow, technically capable conversion use case. Page size, orientation, margins, custom CSS, headers, footers, stamping, page backgrounds, encryption, and print/copy protection provide control over generated documents. Whole-website conversion can create a single PDF, while batch processing supports URL lists or sitemaps. Dropbox and IFTTT are listed integrations, but the product is primarily centered on its web, API, and browser-extension ecosystem. Choose PDFmyURL when the source material begins as a webpage or HTML and automation matters. Choose another category tool when the main requirement is broad conversion between existing PDF files and other document formats.
