Thread

Hi all,

I’m wondering if/how it would be possible to use EE to dynamically generate pdf files from blog content?

It seems it’s possible using straight php but I know nothing about how to do this… has anyone done this before using EE?

Just wondering….

Hi Varen,

Not sure if this is any help at all?

It enables you to place a button on any page and have it output as a PDF file. Not absolutely brilliant in all cases but may be good enough for what you need?

Hope it helps.

Best wishes,

Mark

Here is a thread that (on the second page) provides some code that could be used with fpdf (a free product at http://www.fpdf.org) that can be used to generate pdf’s from the contents of a blog. I tried it and it worked.

You install fpdf on your server.
Create a template in EE
and Set a link that sends your entry to the template.

But the thread above explains it better I think.

Hey guys, thanks for those great suggestions, I’ll check out both options.
