html5 canvas converted to PDF?

[Marc Maxson]

Is there a python module (this or otherwise) that has code for converting an HTML5 canvas on a webpage into an image for embedding into a PDF?

[Jonas Grümann]

Why would you use a python module? If you have an html canvas use javascript's canvas.toDataURL(); to get the image as data-url

[Roberto Maurizzi]

What is you exact use-case?

If you need a python module on your server, well, there the <canvas> will not contain any image. It's the client that renders it.
You'll have to write JS to send back to the server the canvas.toDataURL() as Jonas Grümann said, or eventually you'll have to run a web browser on the server (there are webkit based 'headless' browsers that can output to pdf or png, and then serve that (but this is going to get ugly fast IMHO...)
