Perhaps is better if I explain you what I'm trying to do
Imagine a Plone site (I know there are a plone list but this is a generic question, sorry if not)
I configure it in the way if you put a parameter ?print the plone point renders as when you push the print button at the bottom of the point
For example: plone_site_url/front-page?print renders the plone front page with the print.css sytle
Now I want to get the rendered code of this point as string to pass it to PDFNode.renderAsPdf (it expect a string with the HTML and the name of the generated pdf)
Did you know how can I get the html code of an url with get parameters?
Perhaps but this puts print on options/args/print or options/print in the page_template scope, isn't it?
In my way to solve this I use request/form/print because plone_css use tal expressions and request is passed to it
or something? (Am I the only one which does not see value in a print
button because there is CSS to make this happen without server
interaction? )
Yes, this work as you think but if you need the same view (the print view) in the server side you need to change portal_css
