# HTML to Transparent PNG: Badges, Labels and Buttons

**Use case:** 

Turn HTML and CSS into transparent PNG images cropped to one element: badges, labels, buttons, price tags and stickers, at 2x retina scale. Fill a template from a list to make a whole set in one run. Emoji and Chinese/Japanese/Korean text render correctly.

## Input

```json
{
  "html": "<style>body{margin:0}</style><div id=\"badge\" style=\"display:inline-block;padding:16px 30px;border-radius:999px;background:{{color}};color:#fff;font:700 30px Arial,sans-serif\">{{label}}</div>",
  "data": [
    {
      "label": "New",
      "color": "#2563eb"
    },
    {
      "label": "Bestseller",
      "color": "#16a34a"
    },
    {
      "label": "-30%",
      "color": "#dc2626"
    }
  ],
  "width": 1200,
  "height": 630,
  "fullPage": false,
  "selector": "#badge",
  "scale": 2,
  "format": "png",
  "quality": 90,
  "transparentBackground": true,
  "waitMs": 0,
  "fileNameField": "fileName"
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "fileName": {
    "label": "File",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "url": {
    "label": "Download",
    "format": "string"

## About this Actor

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/bossless/html-to-image.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
