Hi, I'm trying to "misuse" UltimatePDF ;-)I don't want to get a PDF from a url, but I want the Chromium component in UltimatePDF to just render the page and return the HTML result ... Is that possible? Or is this functionality hidden, if so, may I request such service in the next release ;-)
Hi Erwin.
This scenario is not supported by Ultimate PDF, nor will it ever be. However, the latest version 9.0.0 makes it easy to integrate with the puppeteer by reusing some of its code. I am sharing an extension that does that, and you can try to use or customize it.
@Erwin van Rijsewijk you cannot obtain the HTML with Ultimate PDF. It only converts to PDF or PNG/JPG.
Could you explain what are you trying to achieve by retrieving the HTML? Web scrapping? UI testing? Something else?
Leonardo, webscraping. That's why I want to "see" a website like a human.
Can't I install it in my Personal Environment?
You need to build it in Visual Studio first for it to install the nuget dependencies. Or you can publish it directly in Service Center.
