There might be a way to do that server-side.
Or a way to show it in a WebView.

But I do know there’s a PDF renderer in Google Chrome. A server could run a Chrome instance to get a PDF, and send back a screenshot.

KMP's natural use is to use the native views.
Granted, I'm not a Compose guy, so I don't know how that interacts. But if you're using the native views or you can bridge to them, you could get that here.
If you want an image specifically, you can draw views to a bitmap IIRC in UIKit.
