FPDF2
=====

[](#fpdf2)

This repository is a clone of [fpdf.org](http://www.fpdf.org) with typed variables, enumerations and PHP 8.3 dependencies.

`PdfDocument` is a PHP class, which allows generating PDF files with pure PHP. **F** from FPDF2 stands for **Free**: you may use it for any kind of usage and modify it to suit your needs.

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

[](#installation)

If you're using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) to manage dependencies, you can use:

```
composer require laurentmuller/fpdf2
```

Alternatively, you can add the requirement `"laurentmuller/fpdf2":"^4.0"` to your `composer.json` file and run `composer update`. This could be useful when the installation of FPDF2 is not compatible with some installed dependencies. Anyway, the previous option is the preferred way, since the composer can pick the best requirement constraint for you.
