# Prince Cloud

> Prince Cloud is a remote MCP server that converts Markdown, HTML, and web pages to high-quality PDF using Prince.

Prince produces professional typographic output with support for CSS
paged media, headers and footers, tables of contents, footnotes,
cross-references, advanced typography, and accessible PDF (PDF/UA)
and archival PDF (PDF/A) profiles.

The server is hosted at prince.cloud and provides three MCP tools:
`markdown_to_pdf`, `html_to_pdf`, and `url_to_pdf`. Each returns a
download link to the generated PDF along with a conversion report and log.
