Hi, Sorry this is not an issue, just a request for help. I want to download the signature from signature pad as a png file in my project directory. I have successfully implemented the plugin in my project. I need some reference to download it as an image. I dont want to save the data url or blob in db. Just to create it as image and store it for users. I am new to angular and just started using it. Can you help me here? Nice work with the plugin very easy to implement. Thanks & best regards

Hi @abhishek200593

There are a lot of unknowns, but maybe you could send the data URL to whatever the server is that's running on the machine? I don't know if you're running PHP/Node/Ruby/etc, but they'll all have suitable tutorials how to save a form to file.

Or if you'd prefer the user to save the file, try one of these: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15675063/how-to-create-an-image-file-on-server-from-dataurl https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3916191/download-data-url-file https://css-tricks.com/get-original-image-data-url/

Warm regards & good luck, Wulf
