PDF printing in SAP UI5

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have made a table in sap ui5 which retrieves some data.I want to get this data in PDF rather than screenshot.as screenshot will cover only screen visible at a time.What to do in this case?

Generating PDF from the backend is the good approach. But if you want it from Client Side, here is the example,

Export to Pdf from UI5 side,

Yes this is not working because in External Resources https://rawgit.com/someatoms/jsPDF-AutoTable/master/examples/jspdf.debug.js this is not found.

Go through this blog.

This is same.

Is there any error you are getting in your console??

No. This is enough.

Tell me your error, if any at browser's console?

I have done it.Thanks.I got another problem.Data is not cuming in pdf as the data that I am capturing in my table is from XML.so in dataarray.push document there must be something else than aData whinch I am not able to understand

[Private_Member_15166 · Accepted solution]

Data is not cuming in pdf as the data that I am capturing in my table is from XML.

What do you mean?

[Private_Member_15166 · Accepted solution]

At this point,

dataArray.push(aData[filteredIndices[index]]);

Basically content of aData is being pushed to an Array with name dataArray with index starting from 0.

Check out this simple example.

but mydata is not in aData form.It is in XML  form.what to do in that case

[Private_Member_15166 · Accepted solution]

How your's XML from looks like??

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

In the front end it displays in a table but when we capture from backend database,it is in xml form.

[Private_Member_15166 · Accepted solution]

Your oData will be in XML format, but what is the issues in it? You have to use same procedure.

Are you getting any error in your browser's console?

[Former Member]

yes the functions are not applied .It is showing error.Becoz I have captured the XML value in

DomTest variabale which I tried tro add in place of aData but its not working
