Are you looking for a way to render PDF's or produce them? If you want to produce PDF's, I've used https://pdfbox.apache.org/ successfully as well as https://itextpdf.com/ (potentially costs money).

So, the case study would be an optional request/collaboration, but slapping your logo on their site (as seen on their home page just below the fold) is not written as optional. Say what you will about AGPL, but if you're a paying customer, this should be an easy provision to strike from the agreement if requested. They declined and our internal legal team refused to accept the agreement as a result and so we found a different provider.

How do i convert html file to pdf file using java(fx)?
Not really a JavaFX question as JavaFX is a UI framework. Your question is therefore just related to Java. To answer that I've seen a similar feature from IText (https://itextpdf.com) or OpenPDF (https://github.com/LibrePDF/OpenPDF) as an open source alternative. Maybe take a look at those for a start and check if they provide you what you're looking for.
What are some alternatives?
