hello friends i'm using vue.js to create a table and i want a button to print the data in the table without the preview dialog so what should i write my javasript code in vue. this is my table:
and this is my print button code
Print: function(){
var mycocument=document.getElementById('table_users');
var newWin=window.open("","");
newWin.document.open();
newWin.document.write(mycocument.outerHTML);
newWin.print();
newWin.close();
}
OPTION 1
You can try doing it this way.
function printDiv() {
var divContents = document.getElementById("table_users").innerHTML;
var a = window.open('', '', 'height=500, width=500');
a.document.write('<html>');
a.document.write('<body > <h1>This is a sample print</h1> <br>');
a.document.write(divContents);
a.document.write('</body></html>');
a.document.close();
a.print();
}
you can check this example https://codepen.io/misterjenuel/pen/OJPzqVL
OPTION 2
You can do it using https://github.com/MrRio/jsPDF.
*****html*****
<div id="content">
<h3>Hello, this is a H3 tag</h3>
<table border="1px" style="border-collapse: collapse;">
<tr>
<td>computer</td>
<td>Algorithm</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Microwave</td>
<td>Infrared</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div id="editor"></div>
<button id="cmd">generate PDF</button>
*****JavaScript:*****
var doc = new jsPDF();
var specialElementHandlers = {
'#editor': function (element, renderer) {
return true;
}
};
$('#cmd').click(function () {
doc.fromHTML($('#content').html(), 15, 15, {
'width': 170,
'elementHandlers': specialElementHandlers
});
doc.save('sample-file.pdf');
});
OPTION 3
Content inside a .... can be downloaded as pdf with styles using jspdf & html2canvas.
You need to refer both js libraries,
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jspdf/1.5.3/jspdf.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://html2canvas.hertzen.com/dist/html2canvas.js"></script>
Then call below function,
//Create PDf from HTML...
function CreatePDFfromHTML() {
var HTML_Width = $(".html-content").width();
var HTML_Height = $(".html-content").height();
var top_left_margin = 15;
var PDF_Width = HTML_Width + (top_left_margin * 2);
var PDF_Height = (PDF_Width * 1.5) + (top_left_margin * 2);
var canvas_image_width = HTML_Width;
var canvas_image_height = HTML_Height;
var totalPDFPages = Math.ceil(HTML_Height / PDF_Height) - 1;
html2canvas($(".html-content")[0]).then(function (canvas) {
var imgData = canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg", 1.0);
var pdf = new jsPDF('p', 'pt', [PDF_Width, PDF_Height]);
pdf.addImage(imgData, 'JPG', top_left_margin, top_left_margin, canvas_image_width, canvas_image_height);
for (var i = 1; i <= totalPDFPages; i++) {
pdf.addPage(PDF_Width, PDF_Height);
pdf.addImage(imgData, 'JPG', top_left_margin, -(PDF_Height*i)+(top_left_margin*4),canvas_image_width,canvas_image_height);
}
pdf.save("Your_PDF_Name.pdf");
$(".html-content").hide();
});
}
BUT if your trying to directly print it:
I came across another elegant solution for this:
Place your printable part inside a div with an id like this:
<div id="printableArea">
<h1>Print me</h1>
</div>
<input type="button" onclick="printDiv('printableArea')" value="print a div!" />
Now let's create a really simple javascript:
function printDiv(divName) {
var printContents = document.getElementById(divName).innerHTML;
var originalContents = document.body.innerHTML;
document.body.innerHTML = printContents;
window.print();
document.body.innerHTML = originalContents;
}
