);Reset browser default styles (see CSS reset)
return (
<Document>

<Html resetStyles>{html}</Html>
</Page>
</Document>
);The default styesheet roughly matches browser defaults, using a rough emulation of ems:
const em = (em: number, relativeSize: number = fontSize) => em * relativeSize;
StyleSheet.create({
h1: {
fontSize: em(2),
marginVertical: em(0.67, em(2)),
fontWeight: 'bold',
},
...
});By default, the basis for the font size ems is based on the fontSize from props.style:
return (
<Document>
<Page>
<Html style={{ fontSize: 10 }}>{html}</Html>
</Page>
</Document>
);If this is not defined, it falls back to a default of 18
Please note that react-pdf has some constraints with how fonts are applied (see https://react-pdf.org/fonts). You must provide a different font file for each combination of bold, italic, etc. For example:
Font.register({
family: 'OpenSans',
fonts: [
{ src: fonts + '/Open_Sans/OpenSans-Regular.ttf' },
{ src: fonts + '/Open_Sans/OpenSans-Bold.ttf', fontWeight: 'bold' },
{ src: fonts + '/Open_Sans/OpenSans-Italic.ttf', fontStyle: 'italic' },
{
src: fonts + '/Open_Sans/OpenSans-BoldItalic.ttf',
fontWeight: 'bold',
fontStyle: 'italic',
},
],
});
