Here is an Example how you can download your file Object.
But this will return nothing since the file size is too small for the system to read.
function downloadFile() {
var file = new File(["aa"], "dek_iv.txt");
var link = document.createElement("a");
link.download =file.name;
link.href = file;
link.click();
}<button onclick="downloadFile()">Download File</button>7 Comments

No problem. If you got the solution then if you can accept it as answer and give an upvote so that others can easily get the answer if they have the same issue.

You need to use some libraries if you want the HTML contents in a PDF file.

function downloadFile() {
var file = new File(["aa"], "dek_iv.txt");
var link = document.createElement("a");
link.download =file.name;
link.href = file;
link.click();
}<button onclick="downloadFile()">Download File</button>
