A Quick Start guide
How to create a Response object
This small example creates a PDF document with format A4 and portrait orientation:
public function indexAction()
{
return new \TFox\MpdfPortBundle\Response\PDFResponse($this->getMpdfService()->generatePdf('Hello World'));
}
/**
* @return \TFox\MpdfPortBundle\Service\PDFService
*/
private function getMpdfService()
{
return $this->get('t_fox_mpdf_port.pdf');
}
Generate a variable with PDF content
Sometimes it is necessary to get a variable which content is PDF document.
$myVar = $this->getMpdfService()->generatePdf('Hello World');
How to get an instance of \mPDF class
If you would like to work with mPDF class itself, you can use a getMpdf method:
$mpdf = new \Mpdf\Mpdf();
Additional options
Additional options might be passed via the second argument:
public function indexAction()
{
return new \TFox\MpdfPortBundle\Response\PDFResponse($this->getMpdfService()->generatePdf('Hello World', array(
'format' => 'A4-L' // A4 page, landscape orientation
)));
}
