Printing FMX control to a PDF

[everybyte2 1]

Can anybody suggest a component or library to print an FMX control to a PDF?

Do you mean print the contents of a memo?

 

Commercially there is one from TMS as part of FNC core.  See the doc here

Not a specific control, just a [derived] control containing rectangles and text.

The closest I came across is for VCL, it creates a canvas to render to:

You didn't get it with Skia? On github there is a demo just printing a control in PDF.

Webinar demo creates a PDF from a bitmap of the control, as a result PDF does not scale well.

 

With a fix in Skia I do create scalable PDFs on Windows (where Printer canvas is available),

but this solution is not portable, at least for Android.

You are sure! I hadn't realized it.

I have an idea how to solve this, maybe I can put it in a next version.

That would be great!
