Lianja html - pdf File

[Schlingmeier]

Is there a way in Lianja to transfer an html text to a PDF document or which tool would be suitable for this? The background is that I can design text and images wonderfully with the webview gadget. I would then like to convert the result into a PDF document. Greetings Olaf

Yes.

See doc for WebView.

There are methods for printing to pdf.

Thanks Barry. With the command .printhtml("File1.pdf","") I get the file saved as a PDF. My question is, can I create the file without the document being displayed in the browser first?
Thanks and greetings Olaf

I have added saveAsPdf( cFilename ) in 9.3.2 which has the same arguments as printHtml() but no preview is given.

I have also added saveAsPdf( cFilename ) to webview sections.

e.g.

osec = Lianja.get("page1.section1") // a WebView section
osec.saveAsPdf("outputfilename.pdf")
