Steps to Convert HTML File to PDF using Java RESTful Service

  1. Start by adding the necessary libraries from Aspose.HTML Cloud so your project can work with HTML and file conversion
  2. Use your Client ID and Secret to securely connect to Aspose Cloud services and access its conversion features with the HtmlApi object
  3. Grab the conversion API from your initialized object so you can start turning HTML into other formats
  4. Declare the PDFConversionOptions and set the page size and margins by setting the width, height, and all four margins to shape your final PDF file
  5. Run the conversion with the ConvertAsync by giving it your source HTML file and telling it where to save the resulting PDF

These steps summarize the process for converting an HTM file to PDF using Java Low Code API. First, you set up access to Aspose.HTML Cloud by adding the appropriate libraries, logging in with your credentials, and getting the classes/modules that handle conversions. Then you choose how you want the PDF to generate, its size and margins—and invoke the API to turn your HTML file into a PDF.
