Making Web content available as PDF is one way to facilitate the dissemination of content.
In some industries, providing access to print-formatted documents, such as employee benefit descriptions, is mandatory.
Just printing the Webpage is not sufficient because the print format must include a table of contents with page number references.
To add such functionality to a Webpage, developers can convert the HTML content to PDF format; ExpertPDF has the features needed to achieve this.
