Hello, I’m working with Angular 6 and “html2canvas” to create a PDF with “jsPdf” … I wanted to take a screenshot to a hidden div and I could not do it until I ACHIEVE it
the capture is made to the div with id “html-pdf”
“HTML” `<a (click)=“download2()”> Student Card /a>
div id = “pdf” *ngIf = “test” style = “text-align: center; margin-top: 5px;”> div id = “html-pdf”>
/div /div`
“js or in angular is Typescript” `download2 () { var imgcab: string; imgcab = this.base64logo.trim ();
html2canvas (document.getElementById (‘html-pdf’), {scale:2}). Then (function (canvas) {
var img = canvas.toDataURL (“image / png”, 1);
var doc = new jsPDF ({ orientation: ‘p’, unit: ‘mm’, format: ‘letter’, });
doc.addImage (img, ‘PNG’, 2,2,212,272); doc.addImage (imgcab, ‘JPEG’, 5, 5,30,30); doc.save (‘testCanvas.pdf’); });`
And the most important thing to hide the div inside the screen.
“CSS”
#pdf { overflow: hidden; height: 0; }
the code creates a pdf with the capture of the div “html-pdf” that is inside the hidden div “pdf” …
I hope you serve them
I wrote this in Spanish and it is translated, from Chile;
I ran into this issue very recently, and if you want a particular div to be invisible and screenshotted, set the css properties as
height: 0%
overflow:hidden
