Therefore, it is best to use the source on the cloud to download and install.

Of course, this approach is not perfect, mpdf does not support automatic paging of complex tables, in the use of the process we may need to manually disassemble the contents of html, generate multiple html templates, and finally generate multiple single-page PDF files.

Examples of mpdf usage:

/ * * @ param $htmlContent html file content * @ return string returns the generated PDF file content * / function genBillPdfContent ($htmlContent) {$mpdf = new\ Mpdf\ Mpdf (); $mpdf- > SetDisplayMode ('fullpage'); $mpdf- > autoScriptToLang = true; $mpdf- > autoLangToFont = true; $mpdf- > WriteHTML ($htmlContent); return $mpdf- > Output (' filename.pdf',\ Mpdf\ Output\ Destination::STRING_RETURN) } these are all the contents of the article "how to convert html into pdf by php".
