laravel- how to generate pdf for invoice and purchase order?

I have a view page that returns all the info that the customer purchases for their orders. And as usual, an order comes with an invoice and purchase order where as a admin, I can click on the invoice of the order and it downloads the attachment (shown on bottom left of browser). The download file extension is based on what the invoice attachment is but I am wondering is there a simple and elegant way to make sure the file is in PDF format when I download it?

So let's assume the admin retrieve the invoices for the customer orders and populate the view. I assume I need to make sure the file path is in pdf format. I have the invoice template written in blade.php at the moment but not sure how to proceed from there.

Please advice.

Invoice:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

    <title>Invoice</title>

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/4.1.3/css/bootstrap.min.css" />

<body>
