Yes. Take a good look at booth Apache FOP and iText. No matter what you use, you'll probably have to do a little fiddling.

I used HTMLDoc a couple of years ago and had pretty good luck with it.

try wkhtmltopdf. It is a command line utility that can be provided an html file or web address and a save location for the pdf. Very easy to use and utilizes the same rendering engine as safari. Works MUCH better than many of the other parsers that I have used (that don't always support CSS and other advanced layout features.

Can we use wkhtmltopdf without installing it in the system. They have no documentation at all. – Half Blood Prince May 20 '16 at 09:34

flying saucer library is the best one to use. It works on top of itext and makes the task of conversion very easy.

Take a look at html2ps (Perl) or html2ps (PHP). However, none of the two is implemented in Java.
