svg2pdf.js

A javascript-only SVG to PDF conversion utility that runs in the browser leveraging jsPDF.

Installation

You can get svg2pf.js via npm:

$ npm install svg2pdf.js --save

or bower:

$ bower install svg2pdf.js --save

Then import via requirejs:

require.config({
  baseUrl: './node_modules' // or './bower_components'
});
require([
  'svg2pdf.js/dist/svg2pdf.min',
  'jspdf-yworks/dist/jspdf.min'
], function (svg2pdf, jsPDF) {...});

or script-tag:

<script src="[node_modules|bower_components]/jspdf-yworks/dist/jspdf.min.js"></script>
<script src="[node_modules|bower_components]/svg2pdf.js/dist/svg2pdf.min.js"></script>

Usage

const svgElement = document.getElementById('svg');
const width = 300, height = 200;

// create a new jsPDF instance
const pdf = new jsPDF('l', 'pt', [width, height]);

// render the svg element
svg2pdf(svgElement, pdf, {
	xOffset: 0,
	yOffset: 0,
	scale: 1
});

// get the data URI
const uri = pdf.output('datauristring');

// or simply safe the created pdf
pdf.save('myPDF.pdf');

Concerning custom fonts

If you want to use other than really basic fonts you will have to add them first before calling svg2pdf:

pdf.addFont('myFont.ttf', 'myFont', 'normal');

Please refer to the jsPDF readme.

Building

If you want to play with the sources or build the minified js file yourself, check out the repository and use the npm scripts defined in package.json:
