It's a bit complicated, but you can do it if you attach the image to the PDF and then use the exportDataObject method.

I understood the question and I provided you with the way to do it.
You can't export the image itself with JavaScript since it has no access to it. The closest you can get is if you attach the image as a file to the PDF and then export that.
Otherwise you need a plugin.
