Comparison

I have tested my original Chrome HTML document with the 4 online HTML to PDF converters and give them the above order based on my experience.

CloudConvert will automatically display the converted PDF file for you after conversion. You can preview the result and decide whether to download the PDF file. Yet, the downloaded file doesn’t look like the same good view as the preview.

Online-Convert will automatically download the converted file for you. The file has the best display (centered) compared with the other converting result.

Convertio has the same conversion result file as CloudConvet. The PDF file seems align by the left margin and it looks bad.

As for Sejda, it does not recognize my Chrome HTML file. So, there is no converted file.
