FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

It is based on FPDF and HTML2FPDF (see CREDITS), with a number of enhancements. mPDF was written by Ian Back and is released under the GNU GPL v2 licence.
Note: If you are viewing this file on mPDF Github repository homepage or on Packagist, please note that the default repository branch is
developmentwhich can differ from the last stable release.
Requirements
mPDF 7.0 requires PHP ^5.6 || ~7.0.0 || ~7.1.0. PHP mbstring and gd extensions have to be loaded.
Additional extensions may be required for some advanced features such as zlib for compression of output and
embedded resources such as fonts, bcmath for generating barcodes or xml for character set conversion
and SVG handling.

Installation

Usage
The simplest usage (since version 7.0) of the library would be as follows:
This will output the PDF inline to the browser as application/pdf Content-type.
Setup & Configuration
All configuration directives can
be set by the $config parameter of the constructor.
It is recommended to set one's own temporary directory via tempDir configuration variable.
The directory must have write permissions (mode 775 is recommended) for users using mPDF
(typically cli, webserver, fpm).
By default, the temporary directory will be inside vendor directory and will have correct permissions from
post_install composer script.
For more information about custom temporary directory see the note on Folder for temporary files in the section on Installation & Setup in the manual.
If you have problems, please read the section on troubleshooting in the manual.

Any assistance writing unit tests for mPDF is greatly appreciated. If you'd like to help, please
note that any PHP file located in the /tests/ directory will be autoloaded when unit testing.
