[LRUG] PDF generation from HTML with complex JS

Hey all,

On the subject of PDF generation, has anyone had success converting
JS-heavy pages to PDF?

The page in question is an Open Layers based map with vector layers.
 There's an example of the map here:
http://communities4renewables.co.uk/open/maps/5cdbb6b2-33ed-4e7f-ad59-a24327006711

I've tried using wkhtmltopdf which somewhat works but renders different
layers inconsistantly depending on the configuration.  I've tried timeouts
and all the advice I can find online.  I know there are paid solutions like
prince etc but I'm reluctant to invest in that without an idea of the
success.

Any help/experience would appreciated!

Cheers,

Steve
