I'm developping an app with cordova and AngularJS.
I installed pdfmake with npm install pdfmake and when I load it with require('pdfmake'), it showed me thsi error : Uncaught TypeError: fs.readFileSync is not a function.
Kind regards

npm package is primarily for server side usage. If you want use it in client side use files in build folder. For example: require('pdfmake/build/pdfmake.js'); and fonts require('pdfmake/build/vfs_fonts.js');.
