I've tried to follow a couple of the forum posts around exporting images in pdf and printing images but it doesn't seem to be working. I am not sure if its because of the library I am using to generate the barcodes or what. Any insight would be super helpful.

    Some additional information that I have found while trouble shooting.

    It looks like the jsbarcode is rendering the src on the html in base64

    but when I use print or the pdf export buttons the src is not there.

    Is there away to have print and export buttons take the existing elements on the page?

    This thread should help, it's asking the same thing.

    Cheers,

    Hey Collin, those are the exact threads I looked at. They did not help. In my JS bin I am trying to use one of your examples from it.

    I must be missing something can you take a look at my JS Bin?

    It looks like you were close - as there are less columns in your table than in the SO thread you were using, you need to adjust the column :smile:

    doc.content[1].table.body[c][1] = {
    

    See updated example here: http://live.datatables.net/kuwuxuqe/2/edit

    It's not quite there, as I didn't understand the select code you had, and if some columns have been responsively removed, then your columns: ':visible breaks the code. But I'll leave that as an exercise for you :)
