Chrome definitely does not render text or other vectors like SVG as an image.
I just tried printing the Hacker News front page to PDF in Edge which is the same engine as Chrome and the text was selectable.
- infensus 6y agoMost of the time. I'm using Chrome via Puppeteer to generate PDF reports, and I've seen certain CSS rules make it render pages (or parts of them) as images. One of them was `transform` I think.
