I like your video. I am generating a pdf using very similar code in Angular 18. It has been working very well for the last 12 months. However for Angular 18 I converted to standalone components with lazy load. The generation of a pdf still works properly. The problem that occurs is that unloaded chunks cannnot be lazy loaded. This seems to be because the actual URL now reflects the url of where the pdf was created rather then the required domain url. I suspect that Html2Canvas is changing the URL somehow? Does this problem seem familiar?

[@AyyazTech]

Thank you for your comment and kind words! 😊 It seems your issue might indeed be related to html2canvas or how Angular handles lazy-loaded chunks. Here are a couple of pointers: 1. Html2Canvas & Base URL: Html2Canvas can sometimes cause issues if it attempts to fetch resources (like images or styles) using a relative path. Ensure all resources are accessible via absolute URLs. 2. Angular Lazy-Loading Issue: If the URL changes, it could confuse Angular’s routing for lazy-loaded chunks. Try setting preserveWhitespaces: true in your component or verifying the routing configurations. If the issue persists, you might need to debug how the chunks are loaded or consider creating a service to manage PDF generation separate from the routing context.

What about, if we have multiple pages, I've tried this so far with multiple pages in Angular 17, but the content got cropped & doesn't have top + bottom margins on more than 1 page. Please make a video on it for creating multi pages PDF.

[@AyyazTech]

Thank you for your comment! It's great to hear that you're experimenting with generating PDFs in Angular 17. Handling multiple pages in PDFs can be tricky, especially with ensuring proper margins and preventing content cropping. Solution Overview For multi-page PDFs, you need to ensure that each page's content is correctly divided and that margins are set properly. Using libraries like jsPDF and html2canvas can help, but you may need to implement custom logic for handling page breaks and margins. Here's a quick tip: Ensure you manually add page breaks at appropriate places in your content. Use jsPDF's addPage() method to create new pages and html2canvas to capture content for each page.

Can we do it other way round? PDF link to html pages?

[@AyyazTech]

Yes, it’s possible to convert a PDF into HTML pages, but it requires a library like pdf.js. This library can render PDF content into HTML using JavaScript. You can load the PDF and display its pages as HTML elements within your application. Stay tuned for more tutorials on such techniques, and don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe! 🚀

I am using the same tool set, but the images break into the new page. How do I prevent that?

[@AyyazTech]

To prevent images from breaking onto a new page when converting HTML to PDF in Angular, you can use CSS to control the page breaks. Here are a few tips to handle this: 1. CSS Page Break Control Add the following CSS to ensure elements (like images) stay together: img { page-break-inside: avoid; } .container { page-break-inside: avoid; break-inside: avoid; } 2. Adjust Image Size Ensure the image is not larger than the page width by setting: img { max-width: 100%; height: auto; } 3. Use PDF Layout Techniques When using libraries like `jspdf` and `html2canvas`, you can adjust the scale and position to prevent large images from spanning across pages: html2canvas(element, { scale: 2 }).then((canvas) => { const pdf = new jsPDF('p', 'mm', 'a4'); const imgData = canvas.toDataURL('image/png'); const imgWidth = 210; // A4 width in mm const imgHeight = (canvas.height * imgWidth) / canvas.width; pdf.addImage(imgData, 'PNG', 0, 0, imgWidth, imgHeight); pdf.save('download.pdf'); }); 4. Split Long Content For long content, ensure dynamic splitting using: const imgHeight = canvas.height * imgWidth / canvas.width; let position = 0; while (position < imgHeight) { pdf.addImage(imgData, 'PNG', 0, position, imgWidth, imgHeight); position -= 297; // A4 height in mm if (position < imgHeight) { pdf.addPage(); } } For more details on handling PDFs in Angular 17, check out this related video: - How to generate PDF in Angular 17? kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZaXeXRroamXo9U If you're interested in more Angular tips, consider exploring: - How to validate checkbox selection in Angular 17? kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5-QloiIqpKDZtU Let me know if you need further clarification!

Esta práctica solo sirve si no es mucho contenido, ya que si quisieras imprimir varias páginas seguramente se desborda es correcto?

[@AyyazTech]

¡Hola! Es una excelente observación sobre la práctica de convertir HTML a PDF en Angular, especialmente en el contexto de grandes volúmenes de contenido, como mencionas en tu comentario. Tienes razón en señalar que esta técnica puede ser más adecuada para contenido que no es extenso. Cuando se trata de convertir HTML a PDF, especialmente con varias páginas, es importante considerar cómo se manejarán los saltos de página y la disposición del contenido para asegurar que no haya desbordamiento y que el diseño sea coherente en todas las páginas. En el video de , la demostración se enfoca en ejemplos más sencillos. Para proyectos con múltiples páginas o contenido complejo, podrías necesitar estrategias adicionales para manejar el diseño y la paginación de manera efectiva. Esto podría incluir el uso de bibliotecas especializadas en la generación de PDF o incluso la generación de PDF del lado del servidor para mayor control.

Hello, What if my canvas is taller than an A4 or legal, how could I handle this?

[@AyyazTech]

Thank you for your comment! Handling tall canvases that exceed the height of an A4 or legal-sized page can indeed be a challenge when generating PDFs. Here's a quick overview of how you can manage this: Solution Overview To handle tall canvases, you'll need to break the content into multiple pages. This can be done by: Capturing the content in sections. Adding each section to a new page in the PDF. Quick Tip: Use html2canvas to capture the content of each section. Utilize jsPDF's addPage() method to add new pages and manage the content flow. Related Videos: How to generate PDF in Angular 17?

Will this work on mobile app which I have created by using capacitor. Please reply I have struggling a lot to solve this

[@AyyazTech]

Thank you for your comment! Integrating PDF generation in a mobile app created using Capacitor can indeed be a bit challenging. Here's a brief overview to help you get started: Solution Overview Yes, generating PDFs in a Capacitor-based mobile app is possible. You can use the same jsPDF and html2canvas libraries, but you'll need to ensure they are compatible with your mobile environment. Quick Tips: Ensure Compatibility: Make sure jsPDF and html2canvas are compatible with mobile platforms. Sometimes, minor adjustments might be required for mobile optimization. Test on Device: Always test the PDF generation on an actual mobile device to check for performance and compatibility issues. Capacitor Plugins: Look into Capacitor plugins that might help with file handling and sharing the generated PDF. Related Videos: How to generate PDF in Angular 17?

sir, i use same code , but my pdf doesn't show whole html, it just show html that can see in my pc screen. like a screenshot of my screen.

[@AyyazTech]

This issue happens because html2canvas captures only the visible part of your screen by default. To fix this: 1. Set the scrollY parameter to 0 in html2canvas: html2canvas(element, { scrollY: 0, scale: 2 }) The scale ensures better quality. 2. Use jsPDF to create multiple pages by calculating the element’s height and splitting content.

Hello, if I use html12canvas, the DOM will convert to images and I will lose the ability to search the PDF file. Is there a way to create a PDF without having it convert to images?

[@AyyazTech]

Thank you for your comment! You're right, using html2canvas converts the DOM to images, which can make the PDF non-searchable. If you want to create a searchable PDF, you'll need a different approach. Here's a solution overview: Solution Overview To create a searchable PDF without converting the DOM to images, you can use the jsPDF library along with text and HTML rendering capabilities. Instead of capturing the canvas, you directly write text and elements to the PDF. Quick Tips: Use jsPDF's fromHTML Method: This method allows you to render HTML content directly into the PDF. Write Text Manually: For more control, you can write text elements directly using jsPDF's text functions. Example Code: Here's a simple example of using jsPDF to add text to a PDF: javascript Copy code var doc = new jsPDF(); doc.text('Hello world!', 10, 10); doc.save('document.pdf'); Related Videos: How to generate PDF in Angular 17?
