Print

The rendered map 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 the Maps.Inject(Print) method and the allowPrint property must be set to true.

index.ts
index.html
import { Maps, MapsTooltip, DataLabel, Print} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { usa_map } from './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();
    };

Export

Image Export

To use the image export functionality in Maps, ImageExport module must be injected into the Maps using Maps.Inject(ImageExport) method and set the allowImageExport property to true.

import { Maps, ImageExport } from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
Maps.Inject(ImageExport);
let map: Maps = new Maps({ });

The rendered Maps can be exported as an image using the export method. The method requires two parameters: image type and file name. The map can be exported as an image in the following formats.

JPEG
PNG
SVG

index.ts
index.html
import { Maps, MapsTooltip, DataLabel, ImageExport} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { usa_map } from './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('PNG', 'Maps');
    };

Exporting Maps as base 64 string of the file

The map can be exported as a base64 string for the JPEG and PNG formats. The rendered map can be exported as a base64 string using the export method. This method requires four parameters: image type, file name, orientation (set to null for image export), and allowDownload (set to false to return the base64 string).

index.ts
index.html
import { Maps, MapsTooltip, DataLabel, ImageExport} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { usa_map } from './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;
        });
    };

PDF Export

To use the PDF export functionality, PdfExport module must be injected into the Maps using Maps.Inject(PdfExport) method and set the allowPdfExport property to true.

import { Maps, PdfExport } from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
Maps.Inject(PdfExport);
let map: Maps = new Maps({ });

The rendered map can be exported as a PDF using the export method. The export method requires three parameters: file type, file name, and orientation of the PDF document. The orientation setting is optional, where 0 indicates portrait orientation and 1 indicates landscape orientation.

index.ts
index.html
import { Maps, MapsTooltip, DataLabel, PdfExport} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { usa_map } from './usa.ts';
Maps.Inject(MapsTooltip, DataLabel, PdfExport);

    let maps: Maps = new Maps({
        allowPdfExport: 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('PDF', 'Maps', 0);
    };

Export the tile Maps

The rendered map with providers such as OSM, Bing and Google static Maps can be exported using the export method. It supports the following export formats.

JPEG
PNG
PDF

index.ts
index.html
import { Maps, Print, ImageExport, PdfExport} from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
Maps.Inject(Print, ImageExport, PdfExport);
    let maps: Maps = new Maps({
        allowPdfExport: true,
        allowImageExport: true,
        allowPrint: true,
        titleSettings: {
			text: 'OSM'

            }
        ]
    });
    maps.appendTo('#container');
    document.getElementById('export').onclick = () => {
        maps.export('PNG', 'Maps');
    };
    document.getElementById('print').onclick = () => {
        maps.print();
