how to convert a web page into pdf by button click in html5
I have web page with containing data I want that when I click generate pdf button it should create pdf of that page. And Save Locally .
I have searched alot but I am getting script to only create pdf by entering data is there any other way
Below is the method which I tried but it is not suitable I want to create whole page into pdf file.
jspdf.com
I also tried another code but it also does not create the file
<script>
function generatePDF(){}
var conv = new ActiveXObject("pdfServMachine.converter");
conv.convert("http://www.google.com", "c:google.pdf", false);
WScript.Echo("finished conversion");
}
</script>
<body onload="generatePDF()">
</body>
</html>
You didn't declare the function correctly. It should be generatePDF(){ instead of generatePDF(){} . Your } should be at the end of the function only.
I am a bit late but let me tell you that, the code you are using is only compatible with old versions of Microsoft browser(ie) because it contains WScript & ActiveX Component.
Yes, you can generate it with jsPDF.js . Just search this javascript file in google and download it locally then include it like shown below.
<script src="~/js/jspdf.js"></script>
<script>
var doc = new jsPDF('p', 'pt', 'letter');
var specialElementHandlers = {
'#editor': function (element, renderer) {
return true;
}
};
$('#btn_Pdfprint').click(function () {
doc.fromHTML($('#myTabContent').html(), 25, 25, {
'width': 790,
'elementHandlers': specialElementHandlers
});
doc.save('mywebpagee.pdf');
window.location.reload();
});
</script>
