Like if I want to customize the css print for a page, I want to be able to do this to convert the page to PDF, many plugins I tried just display main content of the page or post and without design just plain text, I want to be able convert the page to PDF as it is. Is there a way to do this even without a plugin. Thanks

Yes, you can do it but it isn't something as simple as hacking HTML. If you don't use a plugin you'd end up writing one, more or less. And there are a lot of questions about this already. Look to right under "Related". – s_ha_dum Nov 20 '12 at 15:14
@s_ha_dum I browsed some related questions, but not so much info. Someone suggested to use FPDF library to do that but i think this will take so much time as I'm not fluent in PHP – Ahmed Ajmi Nov 20 '12 at 15:32
Close-voted as off-topic. CSS print stylesheets and printing to PDF are not WordPress specific issues. – Chip Bennett Nov 20 '12 at 17:32

WP-MPDF has always worked extremely well for me and has a decent templating system you can override. Thanks!

Thanks Zach for recommending this plug, although I tried it before asking the question but I didn't give so much attention to the amazing template system. But now and with customization it did what I want. Thanks – Ahmed Ajmi Nov 21 '12 at 13:28
Great to hear! Have fun :) – Zach Nov 21 '12 at 13:43
