HTML to PDF (i know its been discussed)

[atDev]

I know this topic has been discussed many times but I still cannot find a reasonable solution.

I am looking for a HTML to PDF generator script that does not require anything more than the standard PHP configuration you will find on most shared web hosts.

It needs to support UTF8 well.

I have tried FPDF (has issues with UTF8)

I have tried TCPDF (extension of FPDF) and it seems a bit too complex as far as the feature set for more than I need. It would be great if there was simply a script where you set the CHARSET, font, and perhaps font sizes, and then assign the HTML you want in the document.

Try out dompdf but it needs to be installed pdf library and DOM in your PHP. But works fine for you. I have used it for more than 3/4 projects and working fine.

How do you install DomPDF. I'm using Apache Server with PHP5?
Also, how do I include the library inside code, can you give me an example?

You don't have to do anything to install it. Just put that folder in your document root and run the samplehtml.php file. If it run then its working. Please check their site http://www.digitaljunkies.ca for further infromation. There are lots of instructions which lead you to the right direction.

Cheers!

Good luck.
