Some colleagues of mine are working on generating pdf reports from a webpage that should include generated charts based on site visitor input.

Even if the coding is beyond me, it sounds intriguing and I found: How to convert HTML(CSS) To PDF Using JavaScript

Maybe it's a base for a TW -> books ?

BTW, the solution in the article is based on two components, one which is a script that apparently allows you to;

"... take "screenshots" of webpages or parts of it, directly on the users browser".

Just interesting :-)

Hi Mat,

It seems, the js library you mention doesn't support server side rendering, which we would also need.

I did find http://pdfmake.org some time ago, which seems to have a very similar page creation strategy as TW rendering. ... But that's just my first impression.

just some info
