### Instructions

* Drop the PDF Creator element on the page

{% hint style="info" %}
You must also ensure the 'This element is visible on page load' box for the PDF Creator element is checked.
{% endhint %}

* Add an ID attribute to the element you wish to PDF&#x20;
* Add a 'Generate PDF Creator' workflow action to a button (or some other trigger)
* Add the ID Attribute of the element you are PDF'ing to the ID Attribute input field on the Generate PDF Creator action
* Select a scale value (it is recommended you start off with 2)

When the button is clicked (or however the workflow is triggered), a PDF will now be generated.
