Optionally publish the config: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag=php-pdf-config ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ### HTML β†’ PDF [](#html--pdf) ``` use Dskripchenko\LaravelPhpPdf\Facades\Pdf; // bytes $bytes = Pdf::fromHtml('Invoice #1234')->bytes(); // file Pdf::fromHtml(view('invoices.show', $data)->render())->save(storage_path('invoice.pdf')); // HTTP responses Route::get('/invoice', fn () => Pdf::fromHtml($html)->inline('invoice.pdf')); Route::get('/invoice/download', fn () => Pdf::fromHtml($html)->download('invoice.pdf')); // Streamed responses β€” rendered straight into the output buffer, never // held in memory as one string. For very large documents. Route::get('/report', fn () => Pdf::fromHtml($html)->stream('report.pdf')); Route::get('/report/download', fn () => Pdf::fromHtml($html)->streamDownload('report.pdf')); ``` ### `response()->pdf()` [](#response-pdf) The macro accepts a `PendingPdf`, a php-pdf `Document` (either layer), or raw bytes β€” the mpdf `Output('', 'D')` habit, the Laravel way: ``` return response()->pdf(Pdf::fromHtml($html), 'invoice.pdf'); // inline return response()->pdf(Pdf::fromHtml($html), 'invoice.pdf', inline: false); // download ``` ### Programmatic documents [](#programmatic-documents) ``` $document = Pdf::builder() ->heading(1, 'Quarterly report') ->paragraph('Q1 revenue exceeded the forecast by 12%.') ->build(); return Pdf::render($document)->download('report.pdf'); ``` Everything from the underlying toolkit is reachable β€” charts, barcodes, AcroForm fields, PDF/A, encryption, PKCS#7 signing, and reading/merging existing PDFs. See the [php-pdf documentation](https://github.com/dskripchenko/php-pdf#documentation). Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) `config/php-pdf.php` controls page defaults and fonts: ``` 'paper' => 'a4', // a3..a6, letter, legal, tabloid, executive 'orientation' => 'portrait', 'margins' => ['top' => null, 'right' => null, 'bottom' => null, 'left' => null], // pt 'fonts' => [ // Embedded TTFs (required for Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic, CJK β€” the // base-14 defaults cover Latin only). Fonts are subset automatically. 'default' => storage_path('fonts/DejaVuSans.ttf'), 'bold' => storage_path('fonts/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf'), // Named families for CSS font-family / RunStyle(fontFamily: ...): 'families' => [ 'mono' => ['regular' => storage_path('fonts/DejaVuSansMono.ttf')], ], ], 'metadata' => ['Author' => 'ACME Corp.'], // default /Info entries ``` Migrating from laravel-mpdf / barryvdh wrappers ----------------------------------------------- [](#migrating-from-laravel-mpdf--barryvdh-wrappers) The underlying toolkit ships compat facades and guides for [mpdf](https://github.com/dskripchenko/php-pdf/blob/main/docs/en/MIGRATION-FROM-MPDF.md)and [FPDI](https://github.com/dskripchenko/php-pdf/blob/main/docs/en/MIGRATION-FROM-FPDI.md)call sites. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.2+ - Laravel 11, 12, or 13 - Extensions: `mbstring`, `zlib`, `dom` (plus `openssl` for encryption/signing) Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test ``` License ------- [](#license) MIT. The underlying `dskripchenko/php-pdf` is MIT as well β€” no GPL obligations anywhere in the stack. ### Health Score 45 β€” FairBetter than 91% of packages Maintenance94 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity20 Limited adoption so far Community6 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity48 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits β€” single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** β€” Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio. Uses a 2-year decay window. **Popularity (30%)** β€” Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores. **Community (15%)** β€” Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers.
