## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability rendex-html-to-pdf-renderer-74f4188d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Convert this HTML invoice snippet into a PDF with A4 page size, 20mm margins on all sides, and a footer showing the page number — return it as a base64-encoded PDF.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need server-side, pay-per-call PDF generation from HTML or a live URL without managing a headless browser yourself. It is especially suited for generating invoices, reports, or documents from HTML templates where precise layout control (margins, headers, footers) is required. The x402/USDC micropayment model makes it cost-effective for low-volume or on-demand rendering without a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or inaccessible public URL returns an error response
- Malformed HTML may produce a blank or partially rendered PDF
- Unsupported layout options may be silently ignored or cause a 400 error
- Payment failure via x402 returns a 402 Payment Required status before rendering begins
- Large or complex pages may time out
- Missing or invalid options field may result in default layout being applied without warning
