PHP and PDF
I recently recieved a project from ScriptLance to generate PDF reports from MySQL data using PHP. I hadn’t really experimented with report generation in PHP so I had little idea what I was getting into. So I surfed over to PHP.net and started reading.
A few minutes later I tried out a couple of examples posted on there as well as other PHP-related sites. None worked. So I googled a bit and landed on FPDF.org. I haven’t looked back since and I’ve finished the project. Infact, I’ve recieved one more project to do the same.
I must thank it’s creator, it’s a wonderful class. Moreover the example scripts listed helped me do exactly what I wanted. The class is so good, I didn’t even need to understand most of it to use it. The methods have standard names so they’re extremely easy to remember.
If you need a PDF report created with PHP FPDF is definitely the way to go….
