You can use library function to do that easily.

$pdf_text = "It will be the text you want to load";
PDF::loadHTML($pdf_text)->save('public/you-file-name.pdf');

You can change the orientation and paper size, and hide or show errors (by default, errors are shown when debug is on)

PDF::loadHTML($pdf_text)->setPaper('a4', 'landscape')->setWarnings(false)->save('public/you-file-name.pdf')

I know this is old but this may help others. you need to use array key in your view.

Controller:

$data = [
     'foo'    => $bar,
];

$pdf = PDF::loadView('pdf.document', $data);
return $pdf->stream('doc.pdf');

View:

<p>{{$foo}}</p>

You may try this following

public function pdf(Request $request, $id){
    $salesorder = $this->show($id)->salesorder;
    $detailservice = $this->show($id)->detailservice;
    $detailemployee = $this->show($id)->detailemployee;

    $pdf = PDF::loadView('summary.invoice', array('salesorder' => $salesorder,'detailemployee'=>$detailemployee,'detailservice'=>$detailservice));
    return $pdf->download('invoice.pdf');
}

You may try the following.

$html = view('summary.invoice', ['salesorder' => $salesorder, 'detailemployee' => $detailemployee, 'detailservice' => $detailservice])->render();
$pdf = App::make('dompdf.wrapper');
$invPDF = $pdf->loadHTML($html);
return $pdf->download('invoice.pdf');

You have to pass the data as below

$data = [
    'salesorder'     => $salesorder,
    'detailemployee' => $detailemployee,
    'detailservice'  => $detailservice
];

or try using compact

$data = compact('salesorder', 'detailemployee', 'detailservice');
