[PHP] HTML (php page) -> PDF recommendation

2006-06-10 Thread Ryan A
Hi,
can anybody give me a recommendation on a good
html->pdf converter. Checked google and there are
loads of classes, this one looks like one of the best
though (even in price):

http://www.rustyparts.com/pdf.php

Anybody else using this? if yes, would appreciate any
"cons" of using this class.
Or, if you are using another class to do the above and
think its the next best thing to sliced bread, I would
appreciate you sending me the link so that I may try
it out.

All I need is a pdf generator that will generate an
exact (or as close to exact) copy of the html page
(that was generated by php, not a static html page),
nothing fancy, no permissions etc

Thanks!
Ryan

Depending on what you need (CSS support, good table support and so  
on) and which plattform you are working with it might be a good idea  
to have a look at: http://www.digitaljunkies.ca/dompdf/


There are also several on-line services available like: http:// 
www.pdfonline.com/


If you are on Mac OS X, I would definitely recommend looking at the  
Core Image functions within the Quartz 2D layer in Mac OS X. Core  
Image has also subroutines for PDF output (this is why you can save  
any document from any program in Mac OS X as a PDF file). You can  
access those APIs for example via Python.

This might give you some ideas where to start.
