27 Apr 202320 minutes to read
The rendered Maps can be printed directly from the browser by calling the print
method. To use the print functionality, the Print module must be injected into the Maps using Maps.Inject(Print)
method and set the allowPrint
property to true.
import { Maps, MapsTooltip, DataLabel, Print} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { usa_map } from '../default-map-cs1/usa.ts';
Maps.Inject(MapsTooltip, DataLabel, Print);
let maps: Maps = new Maps({
allowPrint: true,
layers: [
{
dataLabelSettings: {
visible: true,
labelPath: 'name',
smartLabelMode: 'Trim'
},
shapeData: usa_map,
shapeSettings: {
autofill: true
},
tooltipSettings: {
visible: true,
valuePath: 'name'
},
}
]
});
maps.appendTo('#element');
document.getElementById('print').onclick = () => {
maps.print();
};

import { Maps, MapsTooltip, DataLabel, ImageExport} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { usa_map } from '../default-map-cs1/usa.ts';
Maps.Inject(MapsTooltip, DataLabel, ImageExport );
let maps: Maps = new Maps({
allowImageExport: true,
layers: [
{
dataLabelSettings: {
visible: true,
labelPath: 'name',
smartLabelMode: 'Trim'
},
shapeData: usa_map,
shapeSettings: {
autofill: true
},
tooltipSettings: {
visible: true,

Exporting Maps as base 64 string of the file
The image can be exported as base64 string for the JPEG and PNG formats. The rendered Maps can be exported to image as a base64 string using the export
method. There are four parameters required: image type, file name, orientation of the exported PDF document which must be set as null for image export and finally allowDownload which should be set as false to return base64 string.
import { Maps, MapsTooltip, DataLabel, ImageExport} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { usa_map } from '../default-map-cs1/usa.ts';
Maps.Inject(MapsTooltip, DataLabel, ImageExport);
let maps: Maps = new Maps({
allowImageExport: true,
layers: [
{
dataLabelSettings: {
visible: true,
labelPath: 'name',
smartLabelMode: 'Trim'
},
shapeData: usa_map,
shapeSettings: {
autofill: true
},
tooltipSettings: {
visible: true,
valuePath: 'name'
},
}
]
});
maps.appendTo('#element');
document.getElementById('export').onclick = () => {
maps.export('JPEG', 'Maps', null, false).then((data) => {
document.getElementById('data').innerHTML = data;
});
};
