Sample declaration of RadClientExportManager in Source mode

</telerik:RadClientExportManager>

Export a Dom element to a PDF document

Export a div element with id "foo", using RadClientExportManager's client-side API

<div id="foo">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</div>

<telerik:RadClientExportManager runat="server" ID="RadClientExportManager1">
<PdfSettings filename="Myfile.pdf" />
</telerik:RadClientExportManager>
<input type="button" onclick="exportElement()" value="export" />

<script type="text/javascript">
function exportElement() {
    var exp = $find("<%= RadClientExportManager1.ClientID %>");
    exp.exportPDF($telerik.$("#foo"));
}
</script>
