The Flash export buttons plug-in for Buttons provides four export buttons:
copyFlash
- copy to clipboard; csvFlash
- save to CSV file; excelFlash
- save to XLSX file; pdfFlash
- save to PDF file. Please note that the HTML5 button types are preferred over the Flash buttons as they do not require Adobe Flash and are generally more configurable, however, not all browsers provide the functionality required for those buttons.

option being set for the excelFlash

buttons.

It can often be useful to include description text in the print view to provide summary information about the table that will be included in the generated PDF. The
message
option of the pdfFlash
button type provides this ability. It is a simple string and cannot contain any formatting information. If you require control over the styling of the exported PDF, please refer to the pdfHtml5
button type.
The page size and orientation of the
pdfFlash
button type can be set using the orientation
and pageSize
options. By default these values are portrait
and A4
, but are easily customised as shown in this example which uses a landscape layout and US legal paper size. Page size supports A3
, A4
, A5
, LEGAL
, LETTER
and TABLOID
values. Orientation can be either vertical
or horizontal
.
