Convert database or webpage information into a PDF document

[ded]

Good Morning,

 

I want to allow the user to be able to click a link to print webpage information into a PDF document.  The webpage information is created from an sql database.

 

Ideas?

 

Regards,

DED

well i dont know if PEAR has the functionality probably has

 

http://pear.php.net/package/File_PDF

 

but the ZEND framework has it zend_pdf

 

 

$pdf = new Zend_Pdf();

$pdfString = $pdf->render();

header('Content-type: application/pdf');

// Add new page

$pdf->pages[] = new Zend_Pdf_Page(Zend_Pdf_Page::SIZE_A4);

// Add new page

$pdf->pages[] = $pdf->newPage(Zend_Pdf_Page::SIZE_A4);

$pdfPage = $pdf->pages[1];

$pdfPage->drawText('Hello world!', 72, 720);

echo $pdfString;

exit;

 

 

usualy people implament this whole directory structure bootstrapped with stuff but you can take teh zend framework library and put it in ur site and just pick classes from it.
