Package Exports

electron-pdf-js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (electron-pdf-js) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

electron-pdf-js

A command line tool to generate PDF from URL, HTML or Markdown files with electron.

This is a fork of the original electron-pdf package to add in additional options including enabling javascript to be executed, custom height/width of the rendering browser window, allowing use of external insecure content i.e. scripts and images and inclusion of a debug mode.

Install

npm install electron-pdf-js -g
