Hello @SAM321 

Use this script :-

var gr=new GlideRecord('your table name');
if(gr.get('current.sys_id'))
{
var pdfconverter = new global.GlideHTMLToPConverter();
var pdfDocument = pdfConverter.convert();
var attachment = new global.GlideSysAttachment();
attachment.write(gr, 'your table name', 'PDF Attachment', 'application/pdf', pdfDocument);
}
else{
gs.error('record not found');
}

Plz mark my solution as Accept, If you find it helpful.

Regards,

you will have to try using PDF Generation API, somehow get the complete HTML of your UI page and then convert it to PDF

Generating Custom PDFs - using the new PDFGenerationAPI

Interesting topic for discussion. Is it possible to integrate an API from an online converter like https://pdfguru.com/csv-to-pdf that can convert data from HTML or CSV to PDF? Of course, an API key is required, but still. I’m specifically interested in this solution because I often work with online converters and PDF editors.
