I am trying to convert jsp code to PDF file using jsPDF. But it is giving me the TypeError: pdf.fromHTML is not a function. I have downloaded the jspdf zip from . My code is :

$("#exportpdf").click(function() {
var pdf = new jsPDF('p', 'pt', 'ledger');

source = $('#yourTableIdName')[0];
// we support special element handlers. Register them with jQuery-style

specialElementHandlers = {

'#bypassme' : function(element, renderer) {

margins = {

Reset to default 2You're loading in the wrong file.
With Javascript libraries, there are the raw source files, and then there's the piled files ready for distribution. So whenever you're looking at a library like this, and you want to find the file to include, it's mon to check in the dist/ directory. So all you need to include is either jspdf.debug.js
or jspdf.min.js
The examples included in the repository are a good way to know how to include and use the library. Check out the basic example here:
https://github./MrRio/jsPDF/blob/master/examples/basic.html
Just use the following dependencies.
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery./jquery-2.1.3.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare./ajax/libs/jspdf/1.3.2/jspdf.debug.js"></script>
Make sure, you don't include any other jspdf.js file which will override the jspdf.debug.js file. Including multiple versions will also result in problems.
