About

📓 Convert ipynb to pdf in one click — right inside your browser
Stop hunting for a working ipynb to pdf converter. Drop a notebook file into the side panel and get a clean document back. No LaTeX, no nbconvert, no Pandoc, no Python on your machine — this extension turns any Jupyter notebook into a print-ready file in seconds, and nothing ever leaves your browser.

🚀 What this converter does
➤ Convert ipynb to pdf with code cells, markdown, equations and outputs intact
➤ Save ipynb as pdf with proper page breaks, so long notebooks read like a real document
➤ Export ipynb to pdf with every chart and plot image preserved at full resolution
➤ Offline, in-browser converter — no install, no terminal commands, no sign-up
➤ Code stays selectable and searchable in the output, not flattened into an image

🔄 How to convert ipynb to pdf
1️⃣ Click the extension icon to open the side panel
2️⃣ Drag a notebook into the drop zone, or click to pick one
3️⃣ It renders instantly and the print dialog opens
4️⃣ Choose “Save as PDF” as the destination — your file is ready
That is the whole flow. No formatting menus, no settings to memorise — open, drop, save.

🧑‍💻 Who needs this converter
1. Data scientists who submit reports as documents instead of raw notebooks
2. Students turning a homework notebook into a clean file for the course portal
3. Researchers who archive a Jupyter notebook as a shareable document for a paper appendix
4. Engineers sharing analysis with stakeholders who only open documents
5. Anyone who tried `jupyter nbconvert --to pdf` and hit a missing-xelatex error

📐 What gets converted, and how
This is not a rename of the file extension. Every cell is rendered — code with syntax highlighting, markdown headings, LaTeX math via KaTeX, pandas DataFrames as proper tables, matplotlib and plotly charts as crisp images. The output is a real document you can open in Preview, Acrobat, or print straight from the browser. Because the conversion runs through the browser’s own print engine, the ipynb to pdf result is vector-clean and the text stays selectable.

🌐 Works with notebooks from anywhere
Drop a notebook exported from Google Colab, JupyterLab, classic Jupyter, VS Code, Kaggle, Databricks or DataSpell — they are all the same file format under the hood. The converter reads the raw JSON, so the result looks identical no matter where the file came from. If you wonder how to convert .ipynb to pdf from Colab without printing the live page, this is it: download the notebook, drop it here, done.

🔒 Privacy — 100% local
📍 Your notebook is parsed and rendered entirely inside your browser
📍 No upload, no cloud server, no account, no sign-in, no email required
📍 The file never leaves your machine — there is nothing to store or delete
📍 No daily quota, no watermark on the output, no paid tier
📍 Works in any region, fully offline once the extension is installed

❓ Frequently asked questions

❓ What is an .ipynb file?
A .ipynb file is a Jupyter notebook — a JSON document holding code cells, markdown, and the output of each run. It is the standard format for Python data analysis, used by Jupyter, JupyterLab, Google Colab, VS Code and Kaggle. To share it with someone who does not run Python, you usually convert ipynb to pdf first.

❓ How do I convert ipynb to pdf without installing Python?
Open this extension, drag the notebook into the side panel, and the print dialog opens. Pick it as your destination. You do not need Python, Jupyter, LaTeX or Pandoc — the rendering happens locally in your browser.

❓ Can I convert ipynb to pdf for free?
Yes. This is a free online ipynb to pdf converter that runs right in your browser. No subscription, no daily cap, no hidden upsell. Drop the notebook, save the document.

❓ How do I save an ipynb as pdf from Google Colab?
In Colab choose File → Download → Download .ipynb. Drop the downloaded notebook into this extension and save it from the print dialog.

❓ How do I export ipynb to pdf in VS Code without LaTeX?
VS Code’s built-in export needs a LaTeX distribution. This extension skips that step — drag the notebook onto the side panel and save it in seconds.

❓ Will my charts and equations survive the conversion?
Yes. Matplotlib, seaborn and plotly images are kept at full resolution. LaTeX math is rendered through KaTeX, so equations look the same as in Jupyter.

❓ Is the saved file searchable?
Yes. Code, markdown text and rendered math are all written as real text, so Cmd/Ctrl-F works as expected.

❓ What is the file-size limit?
A single notebook up to 25 MB. That covers almost every real-world notebook, including ones with embedded base64 images.
