Can we limit PDF pages? #1077

Closed Vicky099 closed 8 months ago

Vicky099 commented 9 months ago

Hello All,

I want to generate a PDF with only one page and ignore the rest of the pages. My first page might be override to second page but in that case I want to ignore that second page. Is it possible using Wicked_pdf?

You can generate the PDF normally, then pass the PDF file or blob into another tool, like PDFtk to copy off the first page into another PDF like pdftk wicked_pdf_multipage.pdf cat 1 output single_page.pdf.

I think you could also use Prawn-templates to do this, as I've done something similar in the past, back when templates were part of Prawn core.
