@mlightcad/pdf-renderer

Native AcGi PDF renderer for @mlightcad/data-model. Converts a drawing database to a vector PDF without going through SVG or a viewer.

This package does not depend on @mlightcad/cad-simple-viewer. Viewer integration lives in @mlightcad/cad-pdf-plugin.

Export includes patterned and gradient hatches, SHX/mesh glyph paths with /ActualText, OCG layers, INSERT marked content (layer 0 follows the INSERT), complex linetype walking, Form XObject reuse, and optional multi-layout (paper space) pages.

Usage

import { AcDbDatabase } from '@mlightcad/data-model'
import { exportDatabaseToPdf } from '@mlightcad/pdf-renderer'

const db: AcDbDatabase = /* loaded drawing */
const bytes = await exportDatabaseToPdf(db, {
  showLineWeight: true,
  background: 'none'
})
