PDF generation in PHP 4.3.2 :(

I'm faced with having to generate some fairly basic PDFs on a server which is running php 4.3.2 unfortunately.

So that pretty much renders most things impossible such as google's domPDF etc.. PDFlib is not compiled in so I can't use any of that either.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

You didn't mention if you were generating these from scratch or from existing PDF data. pdftk is a handy PDF manipulation library. You can shell out to it from PHP.

You could try out DocRaptor.com, which is a webservice that will let you convert html to pdf.

I ended up using an older version of fpdf and HTML2PDF (from the link below.) It's certainly not ideal, but then neither is a 7 year old version of php.

use this R&OS PDF Class to achieve this task.. This is fairly simple and light weight class and requires no module etc to be installed on the server.
