Looking for a plugin to compose and print/save an image/pdf

Hi,

My end user want to compose a printable image that is composed of a dynamic QR code (different for each user) and a background image that can be static.
(example of the end reslt below)

The overall image should be downloadable and ideally printable from a button.

Any idea what would be the best plugin or any other way to achieve that?

You can probably use plugins that can save group to image or group to pdf.

I did something similar using cloudconvert and a Bubble ā€œpageā€.
Basically, was fetching the dynamic page in cloudconvert to create an image (could be a different output). Cloudconvert work great for this kind of stuff because you can add delay (to allow page load of all element and dynamic data)

Hi @bonjour_17, I would agree with @Jici that CloudConverter is a reasonable choice.

However, I will also boldly suggest that my PDF Potion solution may be worth considering. Rather than tell you how great it is, I thought I would build out a mini version of the app you’re looking to create :slight_smile:

As you’ll see from the demo app, the QR codes are dynamic to each user. Feel free to check out the editor (I’ve made it public) to see the setup.

At a very high level, the way this demo app is working is as follows:

  • I designed a PDF in the ā€˜printable-image’ page
  • I set the type of content on the page to be ā€˜QR Code’ (a custom data type I created that has a QR code image)
  • I told PDF Potion to create a PDF of this page each time the generate button was clicked and send the ā€˜QR Code’ associated with that user to the page
  • Once PDF Potion creates the PDF and sends it back to the database, I tell Bubble to download it in so the user gets access to it straight away

Anyway, just wanted to mention it as an option. If you have any questions on the setup just let me know. If it’s not of interest then no worries at all.

PS - my apologies for all the missing grave and aigu accents on the text on the PDF - couldn’t figure out how to add them quickly :slight_smile:

Hello @bonjour_17, :wave:

Thank you for your message. To achieve your goal of composing a printable image with a dynamic QR code and a static background image, you can use a combination of plugins. Here are some recommendations of Zeroqode plugins:

  1. QR & Barcode Generator:
  • This plugin allows you to generate QR codes dynamically based on user-specific data.
  • You can use it to create QR codes that are unique for each user. *
  1. PDF Conjurer:
  • This plugin is perfect for creating printable PDFs. You can include the dynamically generated QR code and the static background image in the PDF, which can then be downloaded or printed.
  1. Bubble Page to PDF:
  • This plugin converts your Bubble pages into PDF documents. It’s useful if you want to ensure the final image layout is preserved and easily printable.

If you need detailed guidance on setting up any of these plugins, feel free to ask!

We hope this helps!
