    ';

    //echo $css.$body;

    require 'vendor/autoload.php';
    $mpdf = new \Mpdf\Mpdf();
    $mpdf->SetDisplayMode( 'fullpage' );
    $mpdf->WriteHTML( $css, 1 );
    $mpdf->WriteHTML( $body );
    $mpdf->Output();

The code does not output correctly when output to PDF.

Here is an example screenshot of the PDF output:

Note that the span's class=rotate, but is not rotating. What can I change to fix this?

I need it works because it will be pressed when shown in the browser.

I've tried it with rotate : -90;, text-rotate : -90;, writing-mode: vertical-rl;, transform: rotate(180deg);, but none of these work. Why is that?

Answer 1

Property text-rotate is only supported for tr, th and th elements in mPDF.

transform: rotate is only supported on img element.

Also see supported CSS documentation.
