Laravel Mpdf: Using Mpdf in Laravel for generate Pdfs

Easily generate PDF documents from HTML right inside of Laravel using this mpdf wrapper.

Installation

Require this package in your composer.json

"require": {
	carlos-meneses/laravel-mpdf: "2.1.4"
}

or install it by running:

composer require carlos-meneses/laravel-mpdf

To start using Laravel, add the Service Provider and the Facade to your config/app.php:

'providers' => [
	// ...
	Meneses\LaravelMpdf\LaravelMpdfServiceProvider::class
]

'aliases' => [
	// ...
	'PDF' => Meneses\LaravelMpdf\Facades\LaravelMpdf::class
]

Basic Usage

To use Laravel Mpdf add something like this to one of your controllers. You can pass data to a view in /resources/views.

//....
use PDF;
class ReportController extends Controller {
	public function generate_pdf() 
	{
		$data = [
			'foo' => 'bar'
		];
		$pdf = PDF::loadView('pdf.document', $data);
		return $pdf->stream('document.pdf');
	}
}

Config

You can use a custom file to overwrite the default configuration. Just create config/pdf.php and add this:

return [
	'mode'                 => '',
	'format'               => 'A4',
	'default_font_size'    => '12',
	'default_font'         => 'sans-serif',
	'margin_left'          => 10,
	'margin_right'         => 10,
	'margin_top'           => 10,
	'margin_bottom'        => 10,
	'margin_header'        => 0,
	'margin_footer'        => 0,
	'orientation'          => 'P',
	'title'                => 'Laravel mPDF',
	'author'               => '',
	'watermark'            => '',
	'show_watermark'       => false,
	'watermark_font'       => 'sans-serif',
	'display_mode'         => 'fullpage',
	'watermark_text_alpha' => 0.1,
	'custom_font_dir'      => '',
	'custom_font_data' 	   => [],
	'auto_language_detection'  => false,
	'temp_dir'               => rtrim(sys_get_temp_dir(), DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR),
	'pdfa' 			=> false,
        'pdfaauto' 		=> false,
];

To override this configuration on a per-file basis use the fourth parameter of the initializing call like this:

PDF::loadView('pdf', $data, [], [
  'title' => 'Another Title',
  'margin_top' => 0
])->save($pdfFilePath);
