So I got a project where the user can generate a pdf based on their input. Using the jspdf
library to generate the PDF files. The thing is though, the user can upload a profile picture, and I would like to display that image with rounded corners or fully rounded (with a border-radius
of 50%). Since there isn't a native function that allows this in jspdf
or any other library as far as I know (pfdkit
, pdfmake
), I am looking for a way to modify the image before generating the pdf
.
I already tried using html2canvas
, and that worked fine actually. The problem with html2canvas
occurs when a user is on their mobile. Since the width
and height
of the image are adjusted to the screen size (both of which are around 35px
), taking a snapshot with html2canvas
and then displaying that in a pdf with a width & height of 100px, the image obviously gets way to blurry.
So ideally, I need something to edit the original image or something before generating a PDF file with jspdf
.
Any other ideas that bring me closer to a solution are also very much appreciated.
Just for clarification, simply adding a CSS property to the image won't help. jspdf
just uses the image in the img
tag, without any css properties.
If anyone for whatever reason stumbles across this post, I managed to actually achieve my desired result. As I said the user is able to upload an image and I would like to display that image with rounded corners or with a border-radius of 50%. Anyway, before previewing (and uploading) the image to my website, the user has to crop the image using cropperjs
. They can then decide for themselves if they would like to display the image with rounded corners or with a border radius of 50%. I think that gives a tremendous boost to the UX and my end result.
