You can use 2 VF pages for that.One page contains button to save PDF as attachments and contains 2nd page(rendered as PDF) in iFrame.
When clicking on save button run a controller method to save the PDF as attachment. 

Use something like this your method. 

currentid = Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('Id');
PageReference pageRef = new PageReference('/apex/newinvoice?id='+currentid);
pageRef.setRedirect(true);
Blob pdfBlob = pageRef.getContentAsPDF();  
Attachment att = new Attachment();                    
att.Name = 'Pradeep'+'_'+ string.valueOf(System.today())+'.pdf'; 
att.ParentId = currentid;
att.Body = pdfBlob;
