FPDF Wrapper Class
==================

[](#fpdf-wrapper-class)

A composer wrapper around the great php FPDF class. All credit to them.

[FPDF Website](http://www.fpdf.org/)

Currently uses FPDF 1.86.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Add to your "**composer.json**" file under the "**require**" section:

```
"fpdf/fpdf": "^1.86"

```

Update composer

```
php composer.phar update
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

In your php file that you want to use the class add a use statement.

```
use Fpdf\Fpdf;
```

Then use as per the FPDF documentation.

```
$pdf = new Fpdf();
```

Alternatively you can extend as a typical php class.

```
class CustomPdf extends Fpdf
{
    public function __construct(
        $orientation = 'P',
        $unit = 'mm',
        $size = 'letter'
    ) {
        parent::__construct( $orientation, $unit, $size );
        // ...
    }
}
```
