Export PDF by Revit Design Automation sample

Sample App

Revit Design Automation engine 2022 starts to support exporting PDF, we mentioned this within my previous blog. And to make it clear, I just made a sample application to showcase the usage.   

The source code of sample is at https://github.com/Autodesk-Forge/forge-revit2pdf, and it demonstrates how to export views and sheets from Revit to PDF, you can export different types of view.

As a live demo sample, for cost consideration, the website(https://revit2pdf.herokuapp.com/) adds the limitation that only 5 views are supported to be exported to PDF, but you can easily remove the limitation from the plugin code.
