# PDF Generation (jspdf 4.x)
|
|
|
|
The v2 app uses `jspdf` (v4.2.1) to generate quote PDFs. The generator lives at `src/lib/pdf.ts`.
|
|
|
|
## Critical Pitfalls
|
|
|
|
### 1. NEVER pass string arrays to `doc.text()`
|
|
|
|
In jspdf 4.x, `doc.text(stringArray, x, y)` uses internal matrix-based line spacing that differs from manual `array.length * lineHeight` calculations. This causes yPos desync — every subsequent element renders at the wrong position, causing cascading text overlap.
|
|
|
|
**WRONG:**
|
|
```ts
|
|
const lines = doc.splitTextToSize(text, maxWidth);
|
|
doc.text(lines, x, y); // jspdf 4.x spacing != manual calc
|
|
yPos += lines.length * 6 + 15; // DOESN'T MATCH where jspdf rendered
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**RIGHT:**
|
|
```ts
|
|
const lines = doc.splitTextToSize(text, maxWidth);
|
|
lines.forEach((line) => { // render each line individually
|
|
doc.text(line, x, yPos);
|
|
yPos += 6; // explicit tracking per line
|
|
});
|
|
yPos += 15;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Page-break logic must use content-bottom + footer-height
|
|
|
|
Calculate max y as `PAGE_HEIGHT - MARGIN - FOOTER_HEIGHT` (not just page edge). Footer is 35pt: separator line + message + page number.
|
|
|
|
Before rendering a service, compute its total height and check:
|
|
```
|
|
if (yPos + serviceHeight > PAGE_HEIGHT - MARGIN - FOOTER_HEIGHT) {
|
|
doc.addPage();
|
|
yPos = MARGIN;
|
|
// Redraw section header (APPROVED / POSTPONED) on new page
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Section headers must be redrawn after page breaks
|
|
|
|
Track `currentGroupLabel` and `currentGroupColor`. When a page break occurs mid-section, redraw the section header at the top of the new page.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Footers on EVERY page, not just the last
|
|
|
|
Draw footers (separator + message + page number) in a post-render loop over all pages. Do NOT draw them inline — they'll only appear on the last page.
|
|
|
|
### 5. Height calculation must match actual yPos increments
|
|
|
|
The pre-render height estimate must use the same values as actual yPos advances:
|
|
- Customer decision badge: 5pt
|
|
- Name+price: 6pt
|
|
- Priority (label+reason): 6+10=16pt
|
|
- Recommendation: 8pt
|
|
- Explanation lines: 5pt each + 2pt end padding
|
|
- Parts messages: 8pt each
|
|
- Service separator+spacing: 6pt
|
|
|
|
### 7. Service counting for totals: `!== 'declined'`, not `=== 'approved'`
|
|
|
|
The PDF's `servicesTotal` accumulator and `shopChargeableSubtotal` use `customerDecision !== 'declined'`. This means **both approved AND pending services** contribute to the pricing summary.
|
|
|
|
The UI summary (`computeQuoteTotals`) uses `customerDecision === 'approved'` — a deliberate difference. The PDF is customer-facing, so pending services must appear in the total so the customer sees the full cost. Only services the customer has explicitly declined are excluded.
|
|
|
|
Do NOT change the PDF filter to `=== 'approved'` — pending services would produce $0 totals.
|
|
|
|
Use `let boxBottomY` (not `const`) so it can be updated when a page break changes the box position. After rendering all summary rows, set `yPos = boxBottomY + 10` for the next content.

## File Locations
|
|
|
|
- Source: `src/lib/pdf.ts`
|
|
- Built: `dist/assets/QuoteGenerator-*.js`
|
|
- Test script pattern: write a `.mjs` file in the project root, import jspdf, generate, save with fs.writeFileSync
