A javascript-only SVG to PDF conversion utility that runs in the browser leveraging jsPDF.
Give it a trial: online playground.
You can get svg2pf.js via npm:
npm install svg2pdf.js jspdf --save
# or
yarn add svg2pdf.js jspdfSince version 2.x, this repository no longer depends on a forked jsPDF but can be used with original MrRio/jsPDF.
If you want to use a development version from the repository, pay attention to the fact that the files in dist may reflect the last release version. So a simple package.json dependency link to the branch or revision will fail. See #102 for details.
import { jsPDF } from 'jspdf'
import 'svg2pdf.js'
const doc = new jsPDF()
const element = document.getElementById('svg')
doc
.svg(element, {
x,
y,
width,
height
})
.then(() => {
// save the created pdf
doc.save('myPDF.pdf')
})Have a look at the typings file for detailed documentation.
Importing is also possible via requirejs:
require.config({
baseUrl: './node_modules'
});
require([
'svg2pdf.js/dist/svg2pdf.umd.min',
'jspdf/dist/jspdf.umd.min'
], (svg2pdf, jsPDF) => {...});or script-tag:
<script src="[node_modules|bower_components]/jspdf/dist/jspdf.umd.min.js"></script>
<script src="[node_modules|bower_components]/svg2pdf.js/dist/svg2pdf.umd.min.js"></script>If you want to use other than really basic fonts and characters you have to add them first before calling svg2pdf:
Please refer to the jsPDF readme.
Svg2pdf is by no means perfect. If you find something is not working as expected we are glad to receive an issue report from you. In order to be able to react efficiently we ask you to provide us with the necessary information.

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:
npm run buildThe test folder contains a set of unit tests. Each unit test has its own folder and contains exactly two files:
- A
spec.svgfile that contains the svg to test - A
reference.pdffile that is generated automatically and serves as reference for regression testing
You can run the tests using
npm run createreferences && npm run test-unitThe tests use the Karma framework and run in a captured (headless) browser.
The createreferences script starts a server that automatically saves reference PDFs if they don't already exist.
You can omit this command if you just want to test for regression.
If you're debugging and want to have visual feedback, you should switch the debug flag to true in test/unit/all.spec.js.
This ensures that a new reference PDF will be created on every run. You might also want to disable some tests in
the test/common/tests array.
Some tests might fail on your local machine, because of differences in text measuring. If you're contributing to a pull request and need to update the reference files, download the respective artifact from the CI build job on GitHub and check it in in a subsequent commit.
