This is just a library for running JavaScript. You're probably looking for something like wkhtmltopdf or headless chrome.

Unfortunately I want to use python wrapper to render html from pdf fast. wkhtmltopdf is working not correctly (sometimes doesn't load images by links) and headless chrome accepts data through socket and It makes impossible to figure out when pdf is rendered. I need some python wrapper for some of browser engines or low-level libraries for pdf rendering. But thank you for answer 🙂

With a bit of work you can probably do what you need by rewriting https://github.com/spajak/cef-pdf in python.
