Hello everyone,
I would like to ask for a recommendation of a plugin for html to pdf conversion. We have used html2pdf in Outsystems web apps and looking for something similar. Unfortunately, html2pdf does not seem to be compatible with Reactive apps.
We tried Ultimate PDF, but using it would mean send every detail through text AND the position on the pdf (x,y coordinates).
We tried PDF Generator as well, but we can't use it because it needs to download data from google and our security wouldn't permit that.
Is there any plugin similar to html2pdf that works for Reactive apps?
Thanks in advance!
Hi Panos,
Did you trout out the following component written by OutSystems MVP Kilian Hekhuis?
https://www.outsystems.com/forge/component-overview/6749/client-side-html-to-pdf
Although it is written for Mobile, it works when you run the app in the OutSystems Previewer, so no mobile plugins are used. I am pretty confident it will also work for reactive web apps.
Regards,
Daniel
Hi DaDaniël Kuhlmann
I tried this forge component.But I am facing some errors like pdf creator not defined. I attached the images for your referance.Please let me know if u have any idea on this.
note : I am trying to use for Mobile Application
Thanks Daniel for your suggestion! I will try it and see how it works!
After checking the component, I have the following comments:
Unfortunately I don't have time to solve the issues stated above, so I have found another solution, by creating a separate espace that is web based and calling html2pdf to export pdf from that espace only.
