jspdf cannot generate pdf in mobile (android/ iPhone)

can we generate pdf using jspdf in mobile phones and tabs? I have simple android application (no Phonegap no Cordova), and an IOS application, jspdf works in web smoothly , but not able to generate pdf in IOS and Android.

doc.output('save', 'Pass.pdf');

works fine for web-browsers. I tried

doc.save();

and

 var blob = pdf.output();
 window.open(URL.createObjectURL(blob));

and when I tried :

 var res = doc.output(); 
 var blob = new Blob([res]);
 window.open(URL.createObjectURL(blob));

I received somthing like this in the android

onLoadResource=data:application/pdf;base64,JVBERi0xLjMKMyAwIG9iago8PC9UeXBlIC9QYWdlCi9QYXJlbnQgMSAwIFIKL1Jlc291cmNlcyAyIDAgUgovTWVkaWFCb3ggWzAgMCA1OTUuMjggODQxLjg5XQovQ29udGVudHM......

but no pdf

so Now I want to know , is it even possible to generate pdf in mobiles using jspdf?or is it all in vain?

If yes , how?

IOS: Google told me that: To download PDFs to your iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch, you'll need to download an application.

Hence it wasn't possible to do it from jspdf directly so I quit trying onto that.

Android: I din't find any solution regarding that, I moved to another solution.

Image instead of PDF (for both iPhone and Android)

The Information which you want to show in pdf, base64 that information , and send it to Android Api , which could convert it to png and save it to photo gallery.

I hope this may help somebody in future.
