Client/server side PDF printing in pure JavaScript

In-browser

Print PDFs directly in the browser or delegate it to your NodeJS backend. Use the same document definition in both cases.

Fully declarative

Forget about manual x, y calculations. Declare document structure and let pdfmake do the rest.

Powerful layout engine

Use paragraphs, columns, lists, tables, canvas, etc... Declare your own styles, use custom fonts, build a DSL and extend the framework.
