Dynamically Convert HTML to PDF

[jay123454]

Hi,

I'm pretty sure there's a php library that can be used to dynamically convert html to pdf, but I can't seem to find it.

I'm trying to dynamically convert a Word -> HTML -> PDF.

I've got the Word -> HTML part done using a COM object to open an instance of Word. I think save the file to the server. So I'd like to just read the file into the PHP to PDF converter and save the file to the server. Don't need to open it, just convert the HTML file to PDF and save it to the server.

Can this be easily done just using built in PHP capabilities?

thanks!

You could install Adobe distiller and print from your instance of word into PDF. Distiller comes in the form of a printer driver and does cost money.
Or look at the other PDF offerings like ActivePDF.
You might also want to look at XSLT-FO (formatting objects) to see if they are of any help.

Have a glance at this:

Maybe this is what you need for your project ....
