Hey guys,

 

I have a question that I am hoping you can point me in the right direction for.

 

I Have a standard html form and I need to be able to take the information from in, pass it to a php page that will then create a pdf with those values.

 

For example: The customer fills out an order form and submits it. The ultimate goal will be to generate a pdf with the customers information and email it to the business owner.

 

Has anyone had any experience with this?

 

Thanks,

-Tom

I've used the professional / commercial version of PDFLib to create PDFs and it works very well.

 

I've also used BIRT to the same effect.  I find BIRT to be easier to use.

 

(edit) I actually haven't spent any great length of time exploring alternatives to the above two for generating PDFs from PHP.  Since almost all of my projects use BIRT for reporting anyways it's simple for me to just create a BIRT report and run it as PDF output and forward that along to the user.
