Another option could be something like
$ curl https://www.ahuka.com/gimp/patterns-and-gradients/ | \
pandoc --from html --to markdown | \
sed -e '1,/content role=\"main\"/ d' | \
pandoc --from markdown --output output.pdf
If you know enough about pandoc and CSS, you could apply any number of styles
during the PDF processing. Otherwise, the default formatting is pretty nice.
