My project is core but this is really just simple view.  I want to convert some simple html to pdf and "Save As" to the local machine.   I dumbed down my actual view fo the example but please help me understand why this works (pdf is generated and saved to downloads) on my local machine but not in production (tried in Chrome/Edge/IE).

Heres a dojo link;  http://dojo.telerik.com/@bdaun1@gmail.com/  (doesn't work here either... only when I run in dev on my machine)

 

Thanks!

Hi Bill,

Thank you for sharing information about your scenario. 

I just tested the provided code snippet and it works as expected in both an ASP.NET Core project and a Dojo environment.

The reason for the described behavior is most likely related with the environment setup. Are you loading all script correctly and are there any errors in the console of the browser? Are you able to reproduce the issue using the Kendo UI CDN?

In case the issue remains please get back to me providing more information so I can further investigate.

Regards,
Nikolay

You were right.   It was a stylesheet reference issue.  Thanks for the quick response and hint to solve the issue.
