Create PDFs using LWC Component

Overview

This Lightning Web Component (LWC) generates a PDF document containing essential information from an Opportunity record, including:

• Opportunity Amount
• Opportunity Owner Name
• Opportunity Owner Email
• The PDF features a header logo, body text with the Opportunity data, and a footer logo.

Key Features

• Error Handling: Validates required fields and displays informative toast messages if any fields are missing.
• PDF Generation: Leverages the JSPDF library to create a visually appealing PDF with header, body, and footer elements.
• Resource Loading: Dynamically loads the JSPDF library from Salesforce static resources.
• Customizability: Easily modify the PDF content and layout as needed.

Usage

Additional Notes

• Requires the JSPDF library to be uploaded as a static resource named "jspdf".
