Examples

Examples

Runnable, end-to-end scripts that combine several phppdf subsystems into a realistic document. Each script lives next to its generated PDF in the examples/ directory of the repository.

The examples are kept out of the Composer package (composer require does not download them). To run them, clone the repository.

Running

git clone https://github.com/dragonofmercy/php-pdf.git
cd php-pdf
composer install
php examples/example-invoice.php   # writes examples/example-invoice.pdf next to the script

Catalogue

The PDF link opens the rendered result directly in GitHub's viewer, so you can see what each script produces before running it.
