iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

Can iMacros paste scraped data into a PDF?

I am wondering if iMacros for FF can paste data scraped from a website directly into a PDF? If so, what commands/coding do I need to use for this?

I think imacros does not work with pdf directly. use some programing language for this like visual basic etc.

I think only with the older iMacros version (e.g. 8.9.7) with Javascript and legacy firefox (e.g. ESR, Pale Moon, Basilisk Browser, Waterfox) or very big workarounds with newest iMacros for Firefox.

You can try jsPDF (Tutorial, Demo, Docs) and for save files see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/doc ... _processes
