This page describes how to use our cloud-based API to convert images to PDF in Node.js. The API is user-friendly and can be integrated into your application with just a few lines of code.
The Node.js API client library provides easy access to the Pdfcrowd API. No third-party libraries are required.
Install the client library from npmnpm install pdfcrowd
We also offer other installation options.
The credentials to access the API are your Pdfcrowd username and the API key.
Refer to the Image to PDF Node.js Reference for a description of all API methods.
Here are a few Node.js examples to get you started quickly with the API. See more examples.
var pdfcrowd = require("pdfcrowd"); // create the API client instance var client = new pdfcrowd.ImageToPdfClient("your_username", "your_apikey"); // run the conversion and write the result to a file client.convertFileToFile( "/path/to/logo.png", "logo.pdf", function(err, fileName) { if (err) return console.error("Pdfcrowd Error: " + err); console.log("Success: the file was created " + fileName); });
var pdfcrowd = require("pdfcrowd"); // create the API client instance var client = new pdfcrowd.ImageToPdfClient("your_username", "your_apikey"); // run the conversion and write the result to a file client.convertUrlToFile( "https://pdfcrowd.com/static/images/logo.png", "logo.pdf", function(err, fileName) { if (err) return console.error("Pdfcrowd Error: " + err); console.log("Success: the file was created " + fileName); });
var pdfcrowd = require("pdfcrowd"); var fs = require("fs"); // create the API client instance var client = new pdfcrowd.ImageToPdfClient("your_username", "your_apikey"); // run the conversion and write the result to a file client.convertRawDataToFile( fs.readFileSync("/path/to/logo.png"), "logo.pdf", function(err, fileName) { if (err) return console.error("Pdfcrowd Error: " + err); console.log("Success: the file was created " + fileName); });
