HTML and its PDF look different

The HTML template files available at https://docraptor.com/free-templates and the generated PDFs don't look the same. The picture below shows the HTML template on the left and the generated PDF on the right.

What would take it to make the template HTML look "more or less" the same as the PDF?

The template showcases CSS features that are not supported by browsers, and indeed only make sense in a printed environment: paged media has some unique characteristics.

Of course there might be ways of emulating what you see on the printed page, but that falls more into the realm of web design.

Thanks for your responses. I was looking for the WYSIWYG functionality so what you see in the HTML is what you get in the PDF (plus paged media improvements). This has tremendous value for nocode appilcation platforms.
