This is what you can do to achieve your result:-

Once you navigate to your result page after submitting the text you need to get the source of the page using:-

String htmlFileContent = driver.getPageSource();

Then you can create a file with this html content something like:-

File file = new File("index.html");
file.createNewFile();
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter("index.html", "UTF-8");
pw.print(htmlFileContent);

Once the content is written in HTML file. You can use iText Library or any other pdf converter library to convert your html into pdf

Hope it helps!!
