php-tcpdfHow can I use PHP to generate a PDF document with HTML content?

Using PHP to generate a PDF document with HTML content is relatively simple. You can use the FPDF library for this purpose.

The following example code will generate a PDF document with HTML content:

// Include the FPDF library
require('fpdf.php');

// Create a new instance of the FPDF class
$pdf = new FPDF();

// Set the document title
$pdf->SetTitle('My PDF Document');

// Add a page to the document
$pdf->AddPage();

// Set the font
$pdf->SetFont('Arial', 'B', 16);

// Write the HTML content
$pdf->WriteHTML('<h1>My PDF Document</h1>');
$pdf->WriteHTML('<p>This is a sample PDF document with HTML content.</p>');

// Output the document
$pdf->Output('my_pdf_document.pdf', 'I');

This code will generate a PDF document with the title "My PDF Document" and the following content:

My PDF Document

This is a sample PDF document with HTML content.

The code consists of the following parts:

1. Include the FPDF library: require('fpdf.php');
2. Create a new instance of the FPDF class: $pdf = new FPDF();
3. Set the document title: $pdf->SetTitle('My PDF Document');
4. Add a page to the document: $pdf->AddPage();
5. Set the font: $pdf->SetFont('Arial', 'B', 16);
6. Write the HTML content: $pdf->WriteHTML('<h1>My PDF Document</h1>');
7. Output the document: $pdf->Output('my_pdf_document.pdf', 'I');
