Export PDF 1.0

This plugin allows to download a content as a PDF file.

Behavior

The plugin requires installation of phantomjs on the application server.

Step 2 : JPlatform queries PhantomJS to generate a PDF by passing:

• the identifier of the publication to export
• the member that performs the action
• the print portal to use
• the rendering customization options
• the path of the PDF file to save on

Step 3 : PhantomJS gets the HTML page of the publication displayed in the specified portal.

Step 4 : PhantomJS generates a screen capture of this HTML page in PDF format, and saves it at the location specified by JPlatform (in the OS temp directory).

Step 5 : Browser downloads the PDF
