My task requires me to click a button on the webpage and download the data as a pdf file. Simply printing the webpage wont do as there are certain tabs which are visible only upon selection.The data source is readily available on the pagenameVM.js. I tried using jsPDF but that works only for a certain div in the page.I need to write the all the required data into the pdf and then download it. Is it possible?

    try priniting page and save as pdf file – Hemant Rajpoot Nov 07 '17 at 04:24
  • Yes it's definitely possible. With enough coding knowledge you can custom print anything you want from a page. However it's hard to answer your question directly without seeing some code. Can you please post some? Otherwise any answers will just be taking a shot in the dark. – YAHsaves Nov 07 '17 at 04:34
  • `I tried ...` did you? perhaps you did it wrong – Jaromanda X Nov 07 '17 at 04:47
  • Have you tried using TCPDF ot mPDF? – Nikko Dela Cruz Nov 07 '17 at 05:38
  • var doc=new jsPDF(); this line shows exception" 'jsPDF' is undefined" when IE 8 is used in Document mode Emulated ,however when in debugger i alter it to IE10 it works. – rookiecoder Nov 07 '17 at 08:01

  • @JaromandaX this is the issue i am facing https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44719019/cant-create-instance-of-jspdf-class-error-jspdf-is-undefined-ie11 – rookiecoder Nov 07 '17 at 10:41
  • so, the problem you are facing is that jsPDF isn't working in IE11 when you load a page using `file:///` protocol schema? easy, tell IE11 that it's safe to run javascript in a locally loaded page – Jaromanda X Nov 07 '17 at 11:00
  • @JaromandaX thanks for the response.I tried doing that it did not work !!Is there any other way i can create a pdf from my C# code and download it into the browser upon the click of a button.. – rookiecoder Nov 08 '17 at 04:38
  • @HemantRajpoot that would not serve the purpose as all the data is not visible at once in the page – rookiecoder Nov 08 '17 at 04:48
