    global: false,
    async: false,

  });
});

Now here is my new pyramid code:

@view_config(route_name="printledgerreport", renderer="")
def printLedgerReport(request):    
    filepath = ("ledgerReport.pdf")
    response = FileResponse(filepath)
    response.headers['Content-Disposition'] = ("attachment;             filename=ledgerReport.pdf")
    return response

This question needs more input and clarification; in its current format readers cannot understand the issue the author haves. — Mikko Ohtamaa, Jun 05 '16 at 02:14

Try this. I'm on my 5th margarita. It should work. :) Remember to add route for "download_PDF".

@view_config(route_name="download_PDF", renderer="")
 def download_view(request):
     filepath = ("pathtomyfile/test.pdf")
     response = FileResponse(filepath)
     response.headers['Content-Disposition'] = ("attachment; filename=test.pdf")
     return response

Whoops. This just downloads the file. Maybe you can make it work with jinja. Again. too many margaritas: )
