About Python to PDF

Sharing Python code as a clean, printable PDF is surprisingly handy — and surprisingly hard if you only have a text editor. FixMyPDF's Python to PDF converter turns your .py source files into beautifully formatted PDFs in seconds, with full syntax highlighting, line numbers, and proper monospaced font rendering so every indent stays exactly where you wrote it.

Whether you're submitting a coding assignment, archiving a script for a code review, attaching a working sample to a job application, or preparing documentation for a developer handoff, a polished PDF beats a screenshot or copy-pasted text every time. Our converter keeps your code readable on screen and on paper, with no rendering surprises.

The conversion runs entirely inside your browser. Your .py file is read locally and the PDF is generated on your own device with pdfmake — it is never uploaded to us, never stored, and never seen by anyone else. You can confirm that yourself: open your browser's Network tab while converting and you will see no upload request. There's no software install, no sign-up, and no watermark, and it works in any modern browser including Safari on iPhone.

For best results, review your source file before converting it. Remove API keys, passwords, private tokens, database connection strings, and any customer data that does not belong in a shared document. If you are submitting coursework or a portfolio sample, include a short comment at the top of the file explaining what the script does so the PDF is useful even without the full project folder.

Frequently asked questions

Will my Python indentation be preserved?

Yes — we use a fixed-width (monospaced) font and render the file with exact indentation, so 4-space and tab-based code both look identical to the source.

Does the converter support syntax highlighting for libraries like NumPy or pandas?

Yes. The highlighter recognizes the entire Python language syntax including standard library calls, decorators, f-strings, type hints, and async keywords. Library names are highlighted as identifiers.

Can I convert a Jupyter notebook (.ipynb)?

This tool handles plain .py files. For .ipynb notebooks, use our dedicated tool — or export your notebook to .py first via Jupyter's File → Download as → Python.

How large of a .py file can I convert?

There is no limit set by us, because conversion happens on your own machine. The practical ceiling is your device's memory — files of a few megabytes of source code convert without trouble, while very large files may simply take longer to render.

Is the output PDF watermark-free?

Yes. The output is a clean PDF with no watermark, no branding overlay, and no sign-up requirement.

Is my Python source code stored on your servers?

No — it never reaches our servers in the first place. The file is read and converted entirely in your browser, so there is nothing for us to store, log, or delete. This matters if your script contains credentials or proprietary logic, and you can verify it in your browser's developer tools.

What should I remove before converting Python code to PDF?

Remove secrets such as API keys, passwords, database URLs, private tokens, customer data, and internal server names before uploading or sharing the PDF.

Is Python to PDF good for assignments?

Yes. A PDF keeps indentation and comments readable, which helps teachers or reviewers follow the code without opening a code editor.
