what doesn't!
>What is the advantage over simply creating an appropriate LaTeX/ConTeXt document in the background and serving that?
the obvious advantage is that you wouldn't have to learn LaTeX/ConTeXt, no?
- Vulume 11y agoPdfmake could generate LaTeX, which can then be properly compiled to a pdf (potentially with texlive.js). In Haskell this is possible with similar DSLs. Very useful to generate reports.
- adiM 11y agoYou do need to learn _a_ way to generate document. I don't see how the JS method is easier than, say, using a ConTeXt Lua Document (CLD). I'd really like to compare samples.
