Angular 16 Convert HTML into PDF Working Functionality

Hello friends, welcome back to my blog. Today in this blog post, I am going to tell you, Angular 16 Convert HTML into PDF Working Functionality.

Guy’s Angular 16 came . if you are new then you must check below two links:

1. Angular16 Basic Tutorials
2. Angular Free Templates

Friends now I proceed onwards and here is the working code snippet and please use carefully this to avoid the mistakes:

1. Firstly friends we need fresh angular 16 setup and for this we need to run below commands but if you already have angular 16 setup then you can avoid below commands.

Secondly we should also have latest node version installed on our system:

npm install -g @angular/cli 

ng new htmltopdf //Create new Angular Project

cd htmltopdf // Go inside the Angular Project Folder

ng serve --open // Run and Open the Angular Project

http://localhost:4200/ // Working Angular Project Url

2. Now friends, here we need to run below commands into our project terminal to install pdfmake, bootstrap(good looks) modules into our angular application:

npm install --save 

npm i pdfmake bootstrap --save 

npm i @popperjs/core

ng serve --o //will run the angular project

3. Now friends, here we need to add below  into our angular.json file:

"styles": [
           ...
           "node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css",
          
         ],

4. Now friends we just need to add below code into src/app/app.component.ts file:

import { Component, ViewChild, ElementRef } from '@angular/core';
import jsPDF from 'jspdf';
import html2canvas from 'html2canvas';
@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
})
export class AppComponent {
  @ViewChild('htmlData') htmlData!: ElementRef;
  USERS = [
    {
      id: 1,
      name: 'Ajay Kumar',
      email: 'therichposts@gmail.com',
      phone: '1-111-111-1111x1111',
    },
    {
      id: 2,
      name: 'Ajay Kumar',
      email: 'therichposts@gmail.com',
      phone: '1-111-111-1111x1111',
    },
    {
      id: 3,
      name: 'Ajay Kumar',
      email: 'therichposts@gmail.com',
      phone: '1-111-111-1111x1111',
    },
    {
      id: 4,
      name: 'Ajay Kumar',
      email: 'therichposts@gmail.com',
      phone: '1-111-111-1111x1111',
    },
    {
      id: 5,
      name: 'Ajay Kumar',
      email: 'therichposts@gmail.com',
      phone: '1-111-111-1111x1111',
    },
    {
      id: 6,
      name: 'Ajay Kumar',
      email: 'therichposts@gmail.com',
      phone: '1-111-111-1111x1111',
    },
  ];
  constructor() {}
  public openPDF(): void {
    let DATA: any = document.getElementById('htmlData');
    html2canvas(DATA).then((canvas) => {
      let fileWidth = 208;
      let fileHeight = (canvas.height * fileWidth) / canvas.width;
      const FILEURI = canvas.toDataURL('image/png');
      let PDF = new jsPDF('p', 'mm', 'a4');
      let position = 0;
      PDF.addImage(FILEURI, 'PNG', 0, position, fileWidth, fileHeight);
      PDF.save('angular-demo.pdf');
    });
  }
}

5. Now friends we just need to add below code into src/app/app.component.html file:

<div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-8" id="htmlData">
      <table class="table table-bordered">
        <tr class="table-primary">
          <th>Id</th>
          <th>Name</th>
          <th>Email</th>
          <th>Phone</th>
        </tr>
        <tr *ngFor="let user of USERS">
          <th>{{user.id}}</th>
          <td>{{user.name}}</td>
          <td>{{user.email}}</td>
          <td>{{user.phone}}</td>
        </tr>
      </table>
    </div>
    <div class="col-md-4 text-right">
      <button class="btn btn-success btn-block" (click)="openPDF()">Download PDF</button>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
