Printing/Saving PDFs with Signatures and Images (No Premium Power Apps)

Using Power Apps to print content to a PDF and subsequently save the document in a SharePoint library can streamline many business processes, enhancing document management and collaboration. This can be achieved by integrating Power Apps with Power Automate (formerly Microsoft Flow) to harness its workflow capabilities. When a user triggers the print action in Power Apps, a flow can be initiated in Power Automate to generate a PDF version of the desired content. This PDF can then be automatically saved to a specified folder in a SharePoint library, making it accessible for authorized users from anywhere at any time. This seamless process not only boosts productivity but also ensures that documents are stored securely and consistently, facilitating easier management and retrieval of important documents.

Hello, sir. but I found that the PDF() function is not working on IOS devices, is there any other way to do the same thing?

Thank you for this brilliant video on PDF signature capture using pen input and found it to be very helpful and for answering my previous question on this topic. :)😀
I am currently using the method you explained in a previous video, which involves a Word template and quick parts. Power Apps populates the template and uses a flow to update the file content. The flow then uploads the document to SharePoint, converts it to PDF, and emails it to the user. However, I am not sure how to add the signature method from this to the Word template. Maybe a good question for another video 😉

you nail it finally.

but can I do it in .jpg and one last thing can I move around the signature on the file so, I can insert the signature on the file and resize it base on the sign of the file?

Wow man.

This works great for me with the Print command. When I go to save it in Sharepoint, the image is moved to a second page. Not sure why that would happen, any ideas?
