What they're suggesting here is for HLO to generate a PDF itself, rather than going through the browser's print system. Thus it would include everything HLO wants, formatted exactly the way HLO specifies, independent of the browser, OS, etc.

My guess is that you'd do this on the server, but I'm not an experienced web app developer.
