Batch convert HTML files to PDF using PowerShell and wkhtmltopdf.  

This script automatically processes all HTML files in its folder and saves the converted PDFs in an `output` directory.

## Features

- Converts all `.html` files in the script’s directory to PDF

- Uses [wkhtmltopdf](https://wkhtmltopdf.org/) for high-quality PDF generation

- Output PDFs are stored in an organized `output` folder

- Optimized conversion settings: A4, landscape, no smart shrinking

## Prerequisites

- [wkhtmltopdf](https://wkhtmltopdf.org/) installed and available in your system PATH, or know its full path

## Usage

1. **Download or clone this repository.**

2. **Place the PowerShell script in the folder containing your `.html` files.**

3. **Open PowerShell in that folder.**

4. (Optional, if you encounter execution policy errors) Run:

   ```powershell

   Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass

   ```

   This temporarily allows script execution for this PowerShell session only.

5. **Run the script:**

   ```powershell

   .\convert-html-to-pdf.ps1

   ```

   - PDFs will appear in the `output` subfolder.

## Script Customization

- If `wkhtmltopdf.exe` is not in your PATH, edit the line in the script:

  ```powershell

  $wkhtmltopdf = "C:\Path\To\wkhtmltopdf.exe"

  ```
