hmm nicnic how many pumpkins have you grown?
We need more information to diagnose the damage you are seeing to your leaves. What have you sprayed lately and fertilizers used. To me it looks like burn damage from spray. Sometimes if you spray on a bright sunny day, the water pools on the leaves. The water magnifies the sun, burning the leaves. If you spray an insecticide during the day this also occurs, which is what your leafs look like. Whiteflies also can create damage.

I did spray some Sevin. It's been hot here and very sunny. I'll try to spray in the future in the evening. I'm glad it's only on a few leaves.
