  1. POCreating a PDF from HTML
    text
    copied!<p>I'm trying to create a PDF document from a HTML document. I am using DOMPDF to do this as every other one I found was either too complicated or required me to install something to the web server itself. I just need a very simple HTML to PDF and force download script of some kind. This is my code so far.</p> <p>It is working almost completely. The ONLY thing that isn't working is the images... For some reason... And it works when I echo the $html variable and load it into a page on it's own.</p> <p><strong>PHP</strong></p> <pre><code>include('dompdf/dompdf_config.inc.php'); $html = $html_header . formatFormResultDownload($userid) . $html_footer; $dompdf = new DOMPDF(); $dompdf-&gt;set_paper("a4"); $dompdf-&gt;load_html($html); $dompdf-&gt;render(); $dompdf-&gt;stream('User Gallery (' . date('Y-m-d H:i:s') . ').pdf'); </code></pre> <p><strong>HTML</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;****&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;table border="1" cellpadding="10" width="100%"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td width="50%"&gt;&lt;img src= "http://****.net/client/****/images/logo-large.gif"&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td width="50%"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Email&lt;/strong&gt;: ****@****.net&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Company Name&lt;/strong&gt;:****&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Company Email&lt;/strong&gt;:****&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;table border="1" cellpadding="10" width="100%"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td align="center" width="25%"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;img src= "http://****.net/client/****/index.php?option=com_datsogallery&amp;amp;view=sbox&amp;amp;catid=7&amp;amp;id=70635" style="width:200px" width="100%"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IS Reference&lt;/strong&gt;: 70635&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Author&lt;/strong&gt;: Rob Speakman&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td align="center" width="25%"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;img src= "http://****.net/client/****/index.php?option=com_datsogallery&amp;amp;view=sbox&amp;amp;catid=7&amp;amp;id=71173" style="width:200px" width="100%"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IS Reference&lt;/strong&gt;: 71173&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Author&lt;/strong&gt;: James Hearne&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td align="center" width="25%"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;img src= "http://****.net/client/****/index.php?option=com_datsogallery&amp;amp;view=sbox&amp;amp;catid=7&amp;amp;id=71177" style="width:200px" width="100%"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IS Reference&lt;/strong&gt;: 71177&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Author&lt;/strong&gt;: James Hearne&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td align="center" width="25%"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;img src= "http://****.net/client/****/index.php?option=com_datsogallery&amp;amp;view=sbox&amp;amp;catid=7&amp;amp;id=71171" style="width:200px" width="100%"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IS Reference&lt;/strong&gt;: 71171&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Author&lt;/strong&gt;: Makiko&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>The PDF</strong></p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/f1t9s.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>Thank you</p>
