Clarify Platform Web on print to PDF

Post by trags3 » Fri Feb 10, 2017 3:28 pm

Hi All,
I have an App that saves a card as a PDF. This works very well on iOS. I am trying to find a method to do the same on an Android App.
When I look at the dictionary "open printing to PDF" the supported platforms include "Web".
I don't understand what the "Web" platform is.
Is there a way of using my server or website to accomplish the generation of the PDF?

Thanks
Tom

Hi Tom,

"web" means HTML5, but in my version of LC 9 DP4 I see this in the dictionary about "open printing to PDF":
...
OS: mac, windows, linux, ios
Platforms: desktop, mobile
...
Nothing about "web"?

Hi Tom,

so they either removed it from the last versions or the entry is simply missing in the dictionary!?
Sorry, no other idea...
