🚀 [New Plugin] PDF Creator

Showcase Plugins
#1

Hi all,

I recently released the PDF Creator plugin. Here’s what you can do with it:

  1. Generate a PDF for any single element in your bubble app
  2. Generate a PDF for MULTIPLE elements in your bubble app
  3. Automatically download the PDFs you create
  4. Save created PDFs to your database
  5. Generate PDFs of repeating groups cleanly across multiple pages
  6. Trigger workflows using the “A PDF Creator Recorded” custom event

There’s plenty of customisation options available. You can:

  1. Choose between landscape and portrait layout
  2. Set the margin on the top, bottom, left and right
  3. Give your PDF a custom name
  4. Set the quality of the PDF using the “scale” value

Check out the demo app I put together to see the detail on how the plugin:
https://pdf-creator-demo.bubbleapps.io/ (the editor is public!)

I’ve also put together a detailed video tutorial on how to use the plugin:

If you any questions on how the plugin works, let me know in the comments :slight_smile:

Great plugin! It seems smooth UX!

Wondering if saving or creating pdf’s is mobile responsive? Or does element (to create a pdf out of) needs to be a fixed and wide spread element group? If not if there is possibility to add this option, where we can add a custom size, to make a pdf always at that size.

Thanks!

Thanks @another :slight_smile:

Yes, I can confirm the plugin creates PDFs in a “mobile responsive” way - the elements do not need to have a fixed width or height,

For example, you’ll see in the below demo that the “invoice” element does not respond perfectly to the reduced screen width. But when you generate a PDF of it, the outcome is still anicely formatted.

If you have any other questions just let me know!

Wow! Looks good @alexcooney5. To follow on the previous question, how should we size our element so that it would fit perfectly on the portrait/landscape view? I note that there are margin controls for your plugin but no width/length controls.
