jsPDF VS react-pdf

As stated in its documentation “html2pdf.js converts any webpage or element into a printable PDF entirely client-side using html2canvas and jsPDF.”

jsPDF is a popular JavaScript PDF generator that allows users to generate PDF files in the web browser dynamically. The library is well-maintained, stable, easy to use, and has rich documentation.

I haven't had to generate PDF files from the browser, but jsPDF looks promising.

So, as advised on the github page https://github.com/parallax/jsPDF i tried to source the new version of jsPDF using either the first or second src that you see in comment in the code below.

was working fine. But it seems this version does not have the function to do dashed lines, so i wanted a newer version. I tried downloading the folder of the newest one, or tu put : as mentionned in this page : https://github.com/parallax/jsPDF, but now i got a bug when i try to create the pdf and the code stops at the instruction var doc = new jsPDF(); I hope have i been clear, sorry i'm kind of trying out things...

You can use the .NET built-in datagrid, write your own .csv export (it's about 15 lines of code), and use jsPDF to convert the datagrid content to pdf using JavaScript.

React PDF

Official React PDF Renderer Docs

Now, you can check the page display at http://localhost:3000 and download the PDF at http://localhost:3000/pdf. By the way, I also tried React-pdf, but since it required building the PDF from scratch with limited styling options, I decided to go with the current method.

React PDF render libraries help you create and display PDF documents directly within your React applications. Imagine building invoices, reports, or forms that look professional and can be saved or printed as PDFs. These libraries provide tools to structure your PDF content using React components, style them with CSS-like syntax, and then convert the result into a PDF file. Think of it as building a webpage that magically transforms into a printable document! Learn More

Using react-pdf, we crafted a solution that allowed users to manipulate their reports with an impressive degree of flexibility. But, as data grew (imagine trying to cram an entire financial year's worth of invoices, up to 22,000 rows, into one PDF), our solution began to falter, especially on older PCs with limited resources.

https://github.com/diegomura/react-pdf is good as well if you want to use React.

Been using https://github.com/diegomura/react-pdf for this purpose for years

Uses React Native like components and styling.

Thank you. This is certainly possible. The library I'm using for rendering the PDF (https://react-pdf.org/) does support Node.js as well. This is a good point, I suppose a lot of people will have their resumes in GitHub.
