Indeed, Firefox uses PDF.js which I've found to produce really good results.


Doesn't PDF.js go the other way (convert a PDF into HTML-and-friends for display in a browser, instead of "printing" a page into a PDF)?

I haven't dug into it and am quite possibly incorrect, hence the request for confirmation!


Ah damnit, yes you're correct. Too late to edit my comment though.


That is correct, pdfjs is not usable for printing. Chrome uses Skia for printing, not sure what Firefox uses.
