Storyline 2 Example - Generating a PDF Certificate for users who successfully complete a quiz
Hi all,
I've been experimenting with a JavaScript PDF library (pdfmake) to generate PDF certificates client side for learners who have successfully completed a quiz in Storyline 2.

Hi Lisa,
See working example attached. You must include images as data uri's. The only other change I made was adding a height and width to the background image. Note that the height and width are set in pixels and are calculated based on the document at 72DPI. So a letter document in landscape has a width of 792px and a height of 612px.
To get round your issue of swapping images in the published output why not just have different versions of the certificate.html file that include the different images encoded as base64 data uri's?

Hi Ryan, thank you so much! I truly appreciate you for looking at my files and adjusting them.
I found a base64 encoder online, so I guess that's what we'll have to do. I'm doing this for someone on my team who administers our LMS, so she wanted a solution that she would be able to do easily on her own. Every time we get an updated certificate image from the third-party vendor, she'll need me to modify the files with the new base64/data uri's and reinsert the web object. Oh well. Maybe we don't get updates for those certificates very often.
So, are base64/data uri's needed for all JavaScript, or is this just how this JavaScript library works?
Many thanks again,
Lisa
