Automate PDF to Image Conversion with n8n
detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow automates the conversion of HTML content and PDF documents into PNG images. Streamline your document processing and visual asset generation effortlessly.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow empowers users to transform digital documents into visual assets with ease. It showcases two primary paths for generating PNG images: one that converts raw HTML into a PDF and then into a PNG, and another that directly converts a PDF file (referenced by URL) into a PNG. The workflow utilizes specialized nodes for HTML-to-PDF and PDF-to-PNG conversions, ensuring a robust and automated solution for various business needs. It's designed to be triggered manually, making it ideal for testing and on-demand processing.
Key Features
- Convert HTML content directly into PDF documents.
- Transform existing PDF files (from URLs) into PNG images.
- High-fidelity conversion for accurate visual representation.
- Integrates seamlessly into broader n8n automation workflows.
- Manual trigger for testing and on-demand execution.
How To Use
- Trigger the Workflow: Initiate the workflow by clicking the 'Test workflow' button on the manual trigger node.
- HTML to PDF Conversion: The 'HTML to PDF' node takes your HTML input (e.g.,
<h1>Hello World</h1>) and converts it into a PDF format. This node requires a 'CustomJS account' credential. - PDF to PNG Conversion (from HTML): The output PDF from the 'HTML to PDF' node is then passed to the 'Convert PDF into PNG' node, which generates a PNG image.
- Set PDF URL: Use the 'Set PDF URL' code node to specify the URL of a PDF document you want to convert.
- PDF to PNG Conversion (from URL): The PDF from the specified URL is processed by the 'Convert PDF into PNG1' node, generating a PNG image from the PDF content. This node also requires a 'CustomJS account' credential and uses
={{ $json.path }}to refer to the PDF URL. - Credentials: Ensure you have configured the 'CustomJS account' credentials for both PDF conversion nodes.
