Applying a Style Sheet to PDF

werz — Fri, 01 Nov 2013 14:45:06 GMT

I am trying to generate a PDF report for a table that I created that uses a custom style sheet. When I view the dashboard the style sheet renders correctly, but when I generate a PDF my table appears in the default black and white color scheme. Is there a way to force the PDF generator to use my custom style sheet? If not, is this something that could be extended as an add-on?

Thanks for any help!

CSS is relevant to HTML and XML only. PDF is a different rendering engine. To do what you ask would require that it first be rendered in HTML as an intermediate, and that that then be re-rendered as PDF.

I had figured as much, but just wanted to make sure. Thanks.
