Expected requirement - when user clicks button ajax will be call to controller where pdf will generate and generated pdf will gets downloaded on user's system.
Actual Scene - i able to create pdf using fpdf file and saved in folder and used force download function but nothing happend.
here's my code:
Controller :
$this->load->helper('download');
$this->load->library('myfpdf');
$this->load->view('pdf/namewise_report',);
$link = base_url().'uploads/pdfs/namewise.pdf';
force_download($link, NULL);
pdf/namewise_report.php (last line)
$this->myfpdf->Output('uploads/pdfs/namewise.pdf', "F");
is there anything to add in ajax success response

Another option is to try with 'file_get_contents(the url here)' instead of AJAX;

simple, don't use ajax for this. no reason to. simple url to download controller will force download the pdf to the computer without altering the current page/causing refresh/new page opening .etc. the best way to think about ajax is like a background process worker, it is the "active" page so to speak so nothing will happen.

@Alex actually i have to use ajax because whatever parameters passing based on that pdf will generate... have to use ajax. i also tried file get contents and force download(name, content) but didnt work.

sorry but its just the way it is: stackoverflow.com/questions/4750461/… ... that being said, there was a time when ajax never existed... so no you don't have to use ajax. find another way to pass your params.
