Export to PDF does NOT export a PDF but created a *.pdf file with HTML content #20

ghost · 2021-11-23T13:55:13Z

I tried this tool on my machine, but it did not work. After editing the resume the preview works fine, but as soon as I click the export to pdf button a 4 kb pdf file gets generated.

This file contains this (a 404 page?):

I've tested it on a machine with Node Version v16.13.0, too and it doesn't work there as well.

Same here too, any solution ?

update for those that might come across this, just do ur edits and then head here http://localhost:3000/preview?export=true&data=1 then right click and click print or if you want the way author did it use puppeteer.

 const generatePDF = async () => {
            const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
            const page = await browser.newPage();
            await page.goto(`https://wtfresume-sramezani.vercel.app/preview?export=true&data=${uuid}`, {
                waitUntil: 'networkidle2',
              });
            await page.emulateMedia('screen');
            await page.content()
            const pdf = await page.pdf({
                // path: `./pdf/${uuid}.pdf`,
                printBackground: true,
                format: 'A4',
                width: '210mm',
                height: '297mm',
            });
            await browser.close();
            
            res.contentType("application/pdf");
            res.send(pdf);
}
