    Hi there,

    I am using this method 'kendo.drawing.pdf.saveAs' to export pdf. Is there a callback or a promise in this method. Or is there a way to know when the download is accepted or canceled by the user?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello Nisarg,

    We can use the method you describe as follows:

    drawing.pdf.saveAs(group, "filename.pdf", proxyUrl, callback);

    where the proxyUrl and callback arguments are optional; the callback will be invoked when the file has been successfully generated (generation could be asynchronous).

    I hope this helps!

    the callback will be invoked when the file has been successfully generated (generation could be asynchronous).

    So you mean that I cannot be sure if the user has closed the download prompt?

    The reason that I need this callback is because I am exporting the pdf from a new tab, and when the download is done, I want to close the tab automatically.

    Will the callback satisfy this functionality?

    Hello Nisarg,

    Although every application is different, I think from what you describe that the callback will satisfy your needs and allow you to know when to close the tab.

    If you find trouble during the implementation of this feature, reply back in a new forum thread and we will help you.

    Thank you.
