Node-PDF can convert html code into pdf file. Node-PDF is based on puppeteer to render html code and create pdf file.

```javascript

async function generatePDF(){

    pdf= await nodepdf.GeneratePDF(html,options); 

    //PDF has been generated and now you can whatever you want with "pdf" variable

    var pdf_file_name="document.pdf";

    fs.writeFile(pdf_file_name, pdf, function (err) {

        if (err) return console.log(err);
