<h2>Overview</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>dompdf is an HTML to PDF converter. At its heart, dompdf is (mostly)
|
|
CSS2.1 compliant HTML layout and rendering engine written in PHP. It is
|
|
a style-driven renderer: it will download and read external stylesheets,
|
|
inline style tags, and the style attributes of individual HTML elements. It
|
|
also supports most presentational HTML attributes.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>PDF rendering is currently provided either by PDFLib (<a
|
|
href="http://www.pdflib.com">www.pdflib.com</a>) or by a bundled
|
|
version the R&OS CPDF class written by Wayne Munro (<a
|
|
href="http://www.ros.co.nz/pdf/">www.ros.co.nz/pdf</a>). (Some
|
|
performance related changes have been made to the R&OS class,
|
|
however). In order to use PDFLib with dompdf, the PDFLib PECL
|
|
extension is required. Using PDFLib improves performance and reduces
|
|
the memory requirements of dompdf somewhat, while the R&OS CPDF class,
|
|
though slightly slower, eliminates any dependencies on external PDF
|
|
libraries.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Please note that dompdf works only with PHP 5. There are no plans for
|
|
a PHP 4 port. If your web host does not offer PHP 5, I suggest either pestering
|
|
them, or setting up your own PHP 5 box and using it to run dompdf. Your scripts
|
|
on your web host can redirect PDF requests to your PHP 5 box.</p>
