Multi-Page Download to PDF Functionality
My colleague and I have triggered JavaScript using the "download to PDF functionality" (utilizing jsPDF) in Storyline. Our PDF hosts text fields a learner has inputted. We are launching this e-learn...
Hey Phil, thank you so much for your quick response! I found this article, but it's not a jsPDF walkthrough. Could you help point me in the right direction?
Hi Ashley
The article you refer to is one of mine in which I was advocating the use of the pdf-lib JavaScript library. We used to use jsPDF but almost always now we use pdf-lib. The advantages are set out in the article - but here's another one that might be relevant - when you create a downloadable file using pdf-lib you can create it by filling in a pdf form template - therefore when you insert your learner's text into a text field in the template you can specify it is 'scrollable'
If you want to see that in action there's a very short demo here
if you just copy a very long piece of text into the body of the note and submit you will see what I mean.
John’s is the example I would go with for multi page. I still like pdfMake for single pages.
