To convert an XHTML file that relies on JavaScript for rendering into a PDF using Aspose.PDF, you may encounter challenges since Aspose.PDF does not execute JavaScript during conversion.

Here’s a general approach you can take:

  1. Render the XHTML in a Browser: First, load the XHTML in a web browser to ensure it renders correctly with JavaScript.
  2. Save as PDF: Use the browser’s print functionality to save the rendered page as a PDF. Most modern browsers allow you to print a webpage to PDF.

If you want to automate this process programmatically, consider using a headless browser (like Puppeteer or Selenium) to load the XHTML, render it, and then save it as a PDF.

Unfortunately, direct conversion of JavaScript-dependent XHTML to PDF using Aspose.PDF is not feasible without pre-rendering the content.
