I spent a lot of time looking for a good representation of my tables, then I found this plugin (https://github.com/simonbengtsson/jsPDF-AutoTable), It works great, includes themes, rowspan, colspan, extract data from html, works with json, you can also personalize your headers and make them horizontals.
The image below is an example:

How to set column width for generating pdf using jsPDF
Videos
» npm install jspdf-autotable
Here is working example:
in head
<script type="text/javascript" src="jspdf.debug.js"></script>
script:
<script type="text/javascript">
function demoFromHTML() {
var pdf = new jsPDF('p', 'pt', 'letter');
// source can be HTML-formatted string, or a reference
// to an actual DOM element from which the text will be scraped.
source = $('#customers')[0];
// we support special element handlers. Register them with jQuery-style
// ID selector for either ID or node name. ("#iAmID", "div", "span" etc.)
// There is no support for any other type of selectors
// (class, of compound) at this time.
specialElementHandlers = {
// element with id of "bypass" - jQuery style selector
'#bypassme': function(element, renderer) {
// true = "handled elsewhere, bypass text extraction"
return true
}
};
margins = {
top: 80,
bottom: 60,
left: 40,
width: 522
};
// all coords and widths are in jsPDF instance's declared units
// 'inches' in this case
pdf.fromHTML(
source, // HTML string or DOM elem ref.
margins.left, // x coord
margins.top, {// y coord
'width': margins.width, // max width of content on PDF
'elementHandlers': specialElementHandlers
},
function(dispose) {
// dispose: object with X, Y of the last line add to the PDF
// this allow the insertion of new lines after html
pdf.save('Test.pdf');
}
, margins);
}
</script>
and table:
<div id="customers">
<table id="tab_customers" class="table table-striped" >
<colgroup>
<col width="20%">
<col width="20%">
<col width="20%">
<col width="20%">

</table>
</div>
and button to run:
<button onclick="javascript:demoFromHTML()">PDF</button>
and working example online:
tabel to pdf jspdf
or try this: HTML Table Export
You can also use the jsPDF-AutoTable plugin. You can check out a demo here that uses the following code.
const doc = new jsPDF();
autoTable(doc, "#basic-table");
doc.save("table.pdf");
A good option is AutoTable(a Table plugin for jsPDF), it includes themes, rowspan, colspan, extract data from html, works with json, you can also personalize your headers and make them horizontals. Here is a demo.
There is a tablePlugin for jspdf it expects array of objects and displays that data as a table. You can style the text and headers with little changes in the code. It is open source and also has examples for you to get started with.
