Recommended approached to generating a PDF of a Custom Visual

I was looking at generating a PDF of my D3 visual. Specifically converting my SVG element to a PDF: Power BI custom visual file download API - Power BI | Microsoft Learn.

 

I have tried using verious libaries including jsPDF, html2canvas, canvg, and pdf-lib.

I managed to generate a PDF using pdf-lib however it was very distorted and rendered the elements in the wrong places.

 

Does anyone know of a good example on GitHub of using the download API with PDFs? Or can recomened an approche they know is compatable with Custom Visuals?
