Convert HTML String to PDF Using jsPDF

Question

I have a variable named var = pictureModelHtml;

I have a for loop that create canvases and draw a picture on each canvas.

for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    pictureModelHtml += '<div class="canvas" id="'+id+'"></div>;
    pictureModelHtml += '<canvas id="'+uniqueId+'">picutre</canvas>';
}

$('.canvas').each(function(i) {
    //do something that draws a picture on a canvas corresponds to the canvas id. 
}

I stuck on drawing all the pictures to a PDF. I am using jsPDF library to generate PDF. I have:

var pdf = new jsPDF();
pdf.fromHTML(pictureModelHtml);
pdf.save("myfile.pdf");

The pdf file doesn't show any picutre. It is empty. What did I miss?? Anybody has an idea how to do this? Please help!!

    <script type="text/javascript">
        var pictureModelHtml = '';
        $().ready(function () {
            var imgData;
            html2canvas($("#scream"), {
                useCORS: true,
                logging: true,
                onrendered: function (canvas) {
                    imgData = canvas.toDataURL('image/png');

                    doc.addImage(imgData, 'PNG', 10, 10);
                    $('#scream1').attr('src', imgData);

                    for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
                        pictureModelHtml += '<canvas id="canvas-' + i + '">picutre</canvas>';
                        $('#someHtml').html(pictureModelHtml);
                    }

                    setTimeout(function () {

                            var ctx = c.getContext("2d");
                            var img = document.getElementById("scream1");
                            ctx.drawImage(img, 10, 10);
                        });
                    }, 1000);
                }
            });



        });

        var testDivElement = document.getElementById('someHtml');

        function savePDF(canvas) {

                logging: true,

                    var doc = new jsPDF('p', 'pt', 'a4');
                    doc.addImage(imgData, 'PNG', 10, 10);
                    //doc.save('sample-file.pdf');
                    setTimeout(function () { window.open(imgData) }, 1000);
                }
