The PDF rendering is based on the Flying Saucer library:
https://xhtmlrenderer.dev.java.net/Obviously it doesn't support Canvas.
What you could do is have xf:output in your XBL components.
Your default CSS should hide those, so that the user doesn't see them
when you are using canvas.
Then use @media print {}, which is triggered when producing the PDF,
to override the other CSS rules to make the xf:output visible.
