I am using MPDF. My content of the page is dynamic. So even if the content enhances it doesn't make a page break. Rather the content shrinks and font size becomes smaller.
$mpdf = new \Mpdf\Mpdf();
$mpdf->SetDisplayMode('default');
$mpdf->WriteHTML($htmldata);
$mpdf->Output($name,"D");
Here $htmldata is my dynamic long html variable. Here's the sample of the pdf

mPDF resizes tables so that their parts fit the page.
See https://mpdf.github.io/troubleshooting/resizing.html
Use <table autosize="0"> to prevent most of this behaviour.

I am working on PDF generation using the MPDF library into a Drupal 8 project.
I am planning to put the table of contents (TOC) inside a <div> on the first page of my PDF.
For that, I created a <tocentry> tags and put the <tocpagebreak /> into my <div> of the first HTML page.
Unfortunately, the TOC is generated in a new page (i.e., page break is happening before and after the TOC).
How can I generate the TOC within my custom HTML structure and include it into my <div>?
By default the TOC goes at the bottom, but you can modify its position manually.
In mPDF's docs there's a nice example in which the TOC is before the content:
$mpdf = new \Mpdf\Mpdf();
$mpdf->WriteHTML('Introduction');
$mpdf->TOCpagebreak();
$mpdf->TOC_Entry("Chapter 1", 0);
$mpdf->WriteHTML('Chapter 1 ...');
$mpdf->Output();
Notice that TOCpagebreak() is invoked before TOC_Entry (the function that adds the entry to the TOC) and before WriteHTML('Chapter 1 ...'). This latter function adds content to the PDF.
By placing TOCpagebreak() before those functions, you make the TOC appear before the contents.
For more details, see mPDF docs on TOCpagebreak()
I am generating pdf from html source using mpdf library in php and everything seems working perfect.
Now I have an issue with the images. Suppose before page end I'm inserting an image but image is big so that it doesn't fit at the bottom of first page and goes to second page. Now I have a long white space at the end of first page because image moved to second page.
Now I want is "if next item to insert in pdf is an image then calculate the remaining size of pdf page if it is less than Image size then adjust the image size so that image can be fit in the pdf page instead of moving to next page" how can i do this here?
Please check the issue image :
If any one has other solution please help me to sort out.
Here's My sample code
include_once 'simple_html_dom.php'; //import html dom and mpdf library
include 'PDFScript/MPDF/mpdf.php';
$mpdf = new mPDF('','','','',15,15,30,15,8,8); //create mpdf object
$html = new simple_html_dom(); //create html dom object
$html = file_get_html("htmlsource.html"); //htmlsource.html is a webpage can contain any html data
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html); //write html source to pdf
$mpdf->Output(); //generate pdf
I got a solution from mpdf forum itself. If Anyone also has the same problem enclose every image in your html inside table as table has a autosize feature in mpdf library.

I'm using php library mpdf for generating pdf files from HTML content. For short paragraph text mpdf is working normally but when there is more than one page long content mpdf is generating pdf file within a single page with very small font. It doesn't worked when I gave sufficient font-size.
Is there any parameter that can be set for page break in mpdf ?
Please use <div> instead of using <table>. MPDF will shrink the content inside <tr> <td> to o
I'm trying to use DomPDF to generate a PDF out of some HTML. I need the page to be 20mm x 20mm, so I use the following:
CPDF_Adapter::$PAPER_SIZES['my_square_page'] = array(0, 0, 566.929134, 566.929134);
$dompdf->set_paper('my_square_page','portrait');
It works properly, if I check the PDF properties the size is ok. The HTML that will appear in the PDF has a container div of 490x490px. This size cannot be changed, as the elements inside that div are absolutely positioned.
The problem, then, is that in the generated PDF the div does not cover the entire page. I've tried setting the DPI, using different values in
def("DOMPDF_DPI", 150);
But it does not seem to make any difference at all. The output I get is this (gray borders are from the PDF reader):
I've tried setting the width and height of body and html in the CSS of the content, but it does not work.
You can check the source code of my sample case here.
Ok, I figured it out. Looks like the line
def("DOMPDF_DPI", 150);
does not actually do anything. I did change the dompdf_config.custom.inc file and then it worked. Added this:
define("DOMPDF_DPI", 62.230);
But now the images look too big :S
can anyone tell me on how could I change the page size on the second (2nd) page using mpdf. My page size is A4 (by mpdf default).
I want to dynamically changed the width of second page of my report since it's dynamic content of table (e.g. number of columns is undefined)
If you know where your first page ends, you can use the AddPage() function to change the formatting of the next page.
$mpdf=new mPDF();
$mpdf->WriteHTML('Your Introduction');
$mpdf->AddPage('L','','','','',50,50,50,50,10,10);
$mpdf->WriteHTML('Your Book text');
$mpdf->AddPage('P','','','','',50,50,50,50,10,10);
