CodeToPDF is the professional standard for documenting code. Instantly convert source files into elegantly formatted PDFs with enterprise-grade syntax highlighting, smart pagination, and support for over 100+ programming languages.

as someone who does technical interviews occasionally, the clean pagination and syntax highlighting is exactly what's missing when you try to print code from a regular IDE. the Rust-based engine making it fast is a smart architectural choice too. would love to see a multi-file export with a file tree view added down the line.
This is actually a really useful idea. One thing that’s always annoying when sharing code in documents or interviews is how formatting gets messed up when exporting from an IDE or copying into Word or Google Docs. Having something that preserves indentation, syntax highlighting, and spacing exactly like the editor solves a real pain point. The security aspect with ephemeral containers is also a nice touch, especially for teams working with proprietary code. I could see this being valuable for companies that need to generate documentation or compliance records of codebases.

The ephemeral container approach for processing is a strong security decision — especially relevant for teams dealing with proprietary source code who can't risk data retention. The theme customization with Dracula, Monokai, and others is a thoughtful touch since developers already have strong preferences about how their code looks. One suggestion: adding a CLI version would make this really powerful for CI/CD pipelines that need automated documentation generation.
Syntax highlighting in PDFs is something I've always had to hack together with pandoc + custom CSS, so a dedicated tool for this makes sense. Curious how it handles very long functions that span multiple pages — does it break at logical points or just cut mid-block? Also wondering if there's support for monorepos where you want to export a subset of files with a shared context header rather than one PDF per file.
This is one of those small but very real problems that most devs just tolerate. Exporting code into something readable for docs, interviews, or non-technical stakeholders is surprisingly painful, especially when formatting breaks. I like that this focuses on preserving syntax highlighting and structure exactly as in the editor, and the security approach with ephemeral containers is a solid touch. Curious how far this can go beyond single files though—multi-file exports or project-level structure (like a file tree) would make this much more powerful for real-world use.
