Convert html page to pdf without any plugins

I think this type of conversion requires external plugins (JS) files or external web-services, because to my knowledge this is not natively supported by JavaScript.
If you would like, you can try the conversion cloud services from LEADTOOLS that can convert your HTML files into different document formats including PDF.

For example, the following code converts files into PDF format using LEADTOOLS Cloud services in JS:

const request = require('request');
//If uploading a file as multi-part content, we will need the file-system library installed.
//const fs = require('fs');
var FormatsEnum = {
"png": 1, "jpeg": 2, "tiff": 3, "pdf": 4, "pdfa": 5,
"pdfImage": 6, "pdfImageOverText": 7, "pdfaImageOverText": 8,
"docx": 9, "docxFramed": 10, "rtf": 11, "rtfFramed": 12,
"txt": 13, "txtFramed": 14
};
var servicesUrl = "https://azure.leadtools.com/api/";
//The first page in the file to mark for processing
var firstPage = 1;
//Sending a value of -1 will indicate to the services that the rest of the pages in the file should be processed.
var lastPage = -1;
//Enum corresponding to the output format for the file. For the purposes of this script, we will be converting to PDF.
var fileFormat = FormatsEnum.pdf;
//We will be uploading the file via a URl. Files can also be passed by adding a PostFile to the request. Only 1 file will be accepted per request.
//The services will use the following priority when determining what a request is trying to do GUID > URL > Request Body Content
var fileURL = 'Source HTML file location';
var conversionUrl = servicesUrl + 'Conversion/Convert?firstPage=' + firstPage + '&lastPage=' + lastPage + '&fileurl=' + fileURL + '&format=' + fileFormat;
request.post(getRequestOptions(conversionUrl), conversionCallback);
