The best only? As probably, the generated PDF's are not for you or team but for your demanding clients, you need to provide a solution that meets all expectations and requirements. In some cases, not because of exaggerated customer requirements but the library you use to generate PDF's, you'll find yourself limited and most likely in problems to provide a solution for the client. In this article, we are going to show 5 of the most imponent PDF generation libraries that will help you to achieve those complex and extense PDF's.
This top is based in different points as how easy are they to implement, use cases, library users, functions and development status. The latest version requires at least PHP 5. Dompdf is mostly a CSS 2. 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. The following snippet shows how to generate a simple PDF and generate a direct download using Dompdf :. Github Snappy Library Github wkhtmltopdf.

This part explains how to set up PHP Word. I hereby start with a list of prerequisites and will then explain how to install PHP Word on a Linux Server, and finally, how to use it.
Before we start with different steps, we need to consider which prerequisites are necessary. Therefore you need:. The recommended way to install PHP Word is to use a composer, but if you prefer not to use the composer, even though you know you should use it, you can download or clone project from GitHub.
Composer is using composer. If you don't have composer. In both cases, after the composer. You probably found yourself in a situation where you need some template documents with only a few different values for each user, receipt or something else. That is exactly the situation where PHP Word would come very handy and make your work effortless. Thereby it is the only requirement to save the document. Placeholder for array MUST be in a table cell, so it can be cloned later.
This is good, because it enables you to later insert as many entries to one placeholder programmatically. There is an option to integrate dompdf with PHP Word to convert file to PDF after editing template, but it won't give expected result of a well-formated document.
If you want to achieve the best results, the easiest thing to do is to install LibreOffice on your server. If you are on shared hosting, you probably won't be able to do that, so you'll need either Virtual Private Server VPS or dedicated hosting. VPS hosting is not that expensive these days and if you need converting files to PDF, you will have to get it and set it up. If you bump into problems when trying to convert with LibreOffice, you still have great backup — unoconv.
