jsPDF v1.5.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2018-12-20 // over 5 years ago

  • The important stuff:

    • there are now 4 javascript files distributed, the classic two: jspdf.debug.js and jspdf.min.js. New are jspdf.node.debug.js and jspdf.node.js. The node version has no included node modules. Despite this, jspdf.debug.js has as before not included html2canvas.
    • 👍 TTFFonts should now be better supported
    • 🔨 putStream is now refactored. Because some people use putStream in internal functions-set for their plugins, despite it is not an API, please be careful
    • API.internal.pageSize.width and .height are again working.
    • we have now a new html-method, depending on html2canvas and our context2d-module
    • 👀 fromHTML and addHTML are not supported anymore. See below
    • 📚 Documentation is now up to date (as far as possible)
    • compression now works

    👍 We will not support any longer fromHTML and addHTML.

    🔌 You are free to submit PRs, but we will not invest more time in these two plugins. We have now a new .html method, based on html2canvas and our canvas2d plugin - based on the html2pdf-Plugin by @eKoopmans . This plugin will be maintained in the future. This should lead to more reliable results for your projects. And it will give us the time to focus on the core functionality of pdf-generation because we will not use our energy for writing/supporting/extending 2 html plugins. If you still want to use addHTML or fromHTML as they are still in jspdf. But if some changes break those plugins, you can still use jsPDF 1.4.1, which has a stable version for both plugins.
