Create PDF file with BIG html CODE

I have to generate PDF document from big HTML code (created 1000 or more pages). But standard method limited me - memory. Standard method:

$html = generatePDF($data_to_pdf);
$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$dompdf->load_html($html);
$dompdf->set_paper('a4', 'landscape');
$dompdf->render();
$pdf = $dompdf->output();

file_put_contents('pdf/' . $tmp_name . '.pdf', $pdf);

The memory is too small so I need to save the data in part. How to generate PDF page by page? Or something like that? How to fix memory problem?

This should work for you in this case.

ini_set("memory_limit", 64MB);
$html = generatePDF($data_to_pdf);
$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$dompdf->load_html($html);
$dompdf->set_paper('a4', 'landscape');
$dompdf->render();
$pdf = $dompdf->output();

file_put_contents('pdf/' . $tmp_name . '.pdf', $pdf);

Try taking a look at this: https://pdfmerger.codeplex.com/

Then, divide the html, render each part into a separate file, and then merge them afterwards..
