Hello,

I tried Export to PDF feature, apparently Windows and Linux fonts are not the same thus the exported report is not showing in the same way it supposed to be.

I tried to add an online font to standardize the font in Windows and Linux. But still, the exported pdf in Linux does not show the correct font either. XReport.view.php ` ...

    @import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans&display=swap');

    html {
        font-family: 'PT Sans', sans-serif;
    }

... `

I searched online about phantomJS and apparently the project is dead now. Also have taken a look at chrome headless, but due to my project requirement, I need to host it locally (no internet connection in production server).

Any input / advice on this particular topic?

Thanks, AST

I tried to install PT Sans in my linux server environment, but still no luck.

But if I tried locally on windows computer, it works.

Ok, so instead of installing, right now I have included the font into my laravel project and it works if i run $report->run()->render();

However, export to PDF still does not work. :(

run render works

export pdf does not work

Still no luck after trying so much on phantomjs. :(

I read this article, https://www.koolreport.com/forum/topics/557 I followed all of the step. In the temp folder I found the report in html format, but not in pdf format.

Any tips on this topic?

Tried that too.

But seems it is phantomjs issue as a lot of people faced the same issue as well (cmiiw). Currently I am trying to use puppeteer. HTML file generated, but pdf file is not. I did not receive any errors.

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin NODE_PATH=`npm root -g` node "C:\Users\x\Documents\Project\a\vendor\its404\php-puppeteer\src/js/puppeteer-api.js" "{ goto :{ waitUntil :[ load , domcontentloaded , networkidle0 , networkidle2 ]}, viewport :{ width :1024, height :800}, pdf :{ format : A4 , printBackground :true, nodeBinary : C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe , orientation : portrait , path : C:\\Users\\x\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\/5d940dadc4c3a2.pdf }, url : file:\/\/C:\\Users\\x\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\/5d940dadc44451.html , nodeBinary : C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe , chromeBinary :null}"

Still have no clue why the pdf is not generated. Running on windows 10.

Thanks for your reply, looking forward to it.

Hello,

I tried it and it returns an error

Array ( [0] => '"node"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, [1] => operable program or batch file. )

I am pretty sure node is installed

PS C:\Users\x\Documents\Project\a> node -v
v10.16.3

Ah great, I get it working except some alignment issue

I change the code into

$fullCommand = 'C:\Progra~1\nodejs\node.exe '
        .escapeshellarg($this->executable). " \"" .addslashes(json_encode($this->config))
            . "\"";

It works, but is it recommended?

Hello,

"instead of hardcoding in the source file. Anyway, headless chrome support in Export package is still experimental so we don't know if it would work good enough for you." Noted.

Tried the pdf font, but it does not work on Linux server.
