Generate PDF files in client-side JavaScript.

This is a fork of MrRios' jsPDF modified to work with svg2pdf.js, which converts SVG elements to PDF. Since version 2.0.0 this fork is fully compatible to the original version and comes with a large amount of additional features, making this fork also great for standalone usage.

Major changes and new features are:

• A global transformation matrix converts between the usual coordinate system (y axis down) and the PDF coordinate system (y axis up) instead of converting every single coordinate.
• PDF FormObjects
• Shading and tiling patterns
• Basic graphics state support
• Full line style support
• ...

With version 2.x.x, this fork is now completely compatible with MrRio's version of jsPDF, which means that all third-party plugins will now also work with this fork! In order to make this possible, we introduced an API-switch between two API modes:

• In "compat" API mode, jsPDF has the same API as MrRio's version, which means full compatibility with plugins. However, some advanced features like transformation matrices and patterns won't work. This is the default mode.
• In "advanced" API mode, jsPDF has the API you're used from the yWorks-fork 1.x.x versions. This means the availability of all advanced features like patterns, FormObjects and transformation matrices.

You can switch between the two modes by calling

doc.advancedAPI(doc => {
  // your code
})
// or
doc.compatAPI(doc => {
  // your code
})

JsPDF will automatically switch back to the original API mode after the callback has run.

In addition to this API switch, here is a list of other API-breaking changes:

• Some fonts, that don't belong to the 12 standard PDF fonts, had a fallback previously. E.g. "arial" was mapped to "helvetica". Now, these fallbacks don't exist anymore and you have to provide all non-standard fonts yourself.
• The API of the angle/transform parameter text(...) method was clarified. See the API-doc for details.
• The style, patternKey and patternData of the path drawing methods are now deprecated and were replaced by a new set of path painting methods. Passing undefined as style argument will thus no longer result in a "n" path operator!
• There are four new path construction methods: moveTo, lineTo, curveTo and close.
• There are eight new path painting operators, replacing the style, patternKey and patternData arguments: stroke, fill, fillEvenOdd, fillStroke, fillStrokeEvenOdd, clip, clipEvenOdd and discardPath. The filling operators accept an optional pattern object.

var doc = new jsPDF();
doc.text(20, 20, 'Hello world.');
doc.save('Test.pdf');

There's a live editor example at the top-level index.html.

Full API-docs are available through docs/index.html.

jsPDF has built in support for some basic fonts like Helvetica and Times. If you want to add custom fonts you will have to pack them into a separate JavaScript file

$ node_modules/.bin/jsPDF-makeFonts path/to/fonts_dir -o outputFileName.js

and then add them via doc.addFont(...). Currently only fonts which are encoded in the TrueType format (*.ttf) are supported. For further information please visit the customFonts-support plugin page.

Build the library with

npm install
npm run build

This will fetch all dependencies and then compile the dist files. To see the examples locally you can start a web server with npm start and go to localhost:8000.
