SelectToPdf html to pdf conversion makes the font size slightly smaller. There is a way to configure font size from settings?

Question

SelectToPdf after conversion from html to pdf makes the font size they way smaller as it should be

I've compared it with some different html-pdf converters and they work as expected

Here are my converter settings

            {
                Options =
                {
                    EmbedFonts = true,
                    ExternalLinksEnabled = true,
                    PageBreaksEnhancedAlgorithm = true,
                    RenderingEngine = RenderingEngine.WebKit,
                    MarginTop = 40,
                }
            };

It is possible to configure that from the converter settings or that could be configured only from inside the html?

I had the similar problem with cristal report and resolve it by setting a value in server registry. Try to set the same as I did. — Seyedraouf Modarresi, Jun 21 '19 at 15:00

I've checked that one before. You can apply it only for specific new `PdfTextElement` while I'm trying to convert the whole html with using `converter.ConvertHtmlString(htmlString)`. So that's not what I need exactly, or I'm missing something? – Yaroslav Smoliak Jun 21 '19 at 14:55
Ah right yes i see what you mean. looking through the documentation then im not sure it would be possible then unless there is a way you can add the new font and size and then apply it to the pdf. – dtroy Jun 21 '19 at 15:05

To increase the overall font size in PDF, you can apply the below style at top of the complete HTLM.

<div style="font-size: 1.5em;"> completeHTMLString </div>

font-size value can be changed as per need, but keep it in 'em'.

I had the same issue but was due to the WebPageWidth set too large which caused the font to be smaller due to DPI.

Try setting converter.Options.WebPageWidth to 816 = letter (8.5") at 96 DPI
