### Hello html2PDF!

The following code snippet shows how to convert HTML to PDF using the `HtmlConverter` class:

```java
package com.itextpdf.hellohtml2pdf;

import com.itextpdf.html2pdf.HtmlConverter;
import com.itextpdf.kernel.pdf.PdfWriter;

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

public class Html2PdfApp {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        //Convert from String
        HtmlConverter.convertToPdf("<h1>Hello world</h1>", new PdfWriter("./out.pdf"));
        //Convert from File
        HtmlConverter.convertToPdf(new FileInputStream("./path-to-html-file.html"),
                new PdfWriter("./out2.pdf"));
    }
}
```
