</html>Request with delay for resources to load:
curl -X POST "https://html2png.dev/api/convert?width=1200&height=630&delay=1000&deviceScaleFactor=2" \
-H "Content-Type: text/html" \
-d '<!DOCTYPE html>...</html>'Key Tips
- Always use
deviceScaleFactor=2or higher for quality - Use
delay=1000-2000when loading fonts/icons/images - Any CSS works: grid, flex, transforms, filters, animations
- JavaScript executes (use delay for rendering)
