A possibility, though a bit brutish, can be to save the vertices to a
database and load them as a temporary WMS layer. I'd POST the shapes'
geometry as WKT to some server-side script, save the vertices to a
database, and generate some identifying single-use key. Then, supply
this key to your print request and have it load a WMS layer.
This sounds complicated, but is a bit easier than it sounds, and does
get the job done.
Another printing process is to use wkhtmltopdf. which eliminates the
whole tile stitching process. However, this doesn't do vectors, so don't
bother trying.
