not really, because i need the information of the grid in a pfd file — Jesus Quintero, Sep 06 '14 at 16:08
I'd consider using a clientside pdf generation library, or generate the pdf on the server side and send the file to the browser (assuming there's a server backend involved). — kendaleiv, Sep 06 '14 at 16:46

{
            type: 'select',
            label: 'Format: ',
            attr: 'id="export_format" style= "padding: 5% 0"',
            options: [{
              xlsx: 'Excel',
              csv: 'Csv',
              htm: 'Html',
              json: 'Json',
              pdf: 'pdf'
            }]
          },

          {
            type: 'button',
            label: "Export",
            icon: 'ui-icon-arrowthickstop-1-s',
            listener: function () {

              var format = $("#export_format").val(),
                blob = this.exportData({                     
                  format: format,
                  render: true
                });
              if (typeof blob === "string") {
                blob = new Blob([blob]);
              }
              saveAs(blob, "Cost Modeler." + format);
            }
          }

you just have to include this code inside the toolbar Items

Don't just blurt out code! Adding some text to describe how this code best answers the question will preserve the long-term value of the answer and help to prevent the answer from being deleted during review. — NightOwl888, Apr 27 '18 at 10:21
