PDF generation (in a post-C2 world) and JS-based plugins

I've been cruising the Construct libraries - both C2 era and C3 - for plugins that would provide some sort of PDF support within the game. I've run across Pode's PDF Creator for C2 (where forum member paulh expressed a similar interest as mine; using the plugin to generate a quiz certificate) and the promising (if untouched for years) jsPDF plugin.

I wouldn't particularly be considering old plugins like this - and I'm sure it makes the devs cringe in regards to backwards compatibility - but there doesn't seem to be any PDF support for C3.

Before I spend time even trying to port either of these .js-based C2 plugins to C3, I figured I'd see if anyone else has tried to do so - or has a better solution.

Thanks!

Hey Dop!

do you know how to print just one area of the screen?

In new Construct beta r215 you can make snapshot of a portion of the screen.

construct.net/en/make-games/releases/beta/r215

Got it, nice improvement, and also seen in 214 finally rotation on canvas!

So you mean your function (the one in the c3p) will print only the part captured in the snapshot?

Yes, it should print any image you give it. It can be a system canvas snapshot, or DrawingCanvas saved image or anything else.

Hey Dop!

here its your example but trying to capture "only the blue box" and when send to print it prints the whole webpage... have any idea how to print only the blue box (a determined area of the snapshot or canvas)?
