Is there any way to center text with jsPDF?

Question

I\'m trying to create a simple pdf doc using javascript. I found jsPDF but I don\'t figure out how to center text. Is it possible?

Answer 1

I have found that the current version of jsPdf supports a parameter 'align' with the function signature like this:

API.text = function (text, x, y, flags, angle, align)

So the following should give you a center-aligned text:

doc.text('The text', doc.internal.pageSize.width, 50, null, null, 'center');

However, at the current point in time, an error is thrown in the library when strict mode is on because a 'var' is missing. There is an issue and pull request for it, but the fix hasn't made it in: https://github.com/MrRio/jsPDF/issues/575

Whoever is looking for this, one day, you might be able to use this to make it easier to center text.
