Excanvas Printing

Question

I cannot get IE to print my canvas (generated using excanvas) ... I am using the latest version of excanvas.

(Note: I already tried having the canvas element already on the page, rather than creating it using document.createElement)

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there is no good answer. There was also a ticket that had been open for over a year regarding excanvas printing, which had not yet received a response. You can try the silverlight version in excanvas a little better, but still suffer from similar problems.

The only way to get the right print now is to make a print screen and then print the image. Unless a newer version of excanvas is released or IE9 is released, inline printing in IE just won't work.

Answer 2

my best shot is currently printing a pre-processed image

(see wkhtmltoimage in google code)
