Is there a way to take your data from your db and create a pdf.

Basically i have a table of information sectioned by month and I want to give the user the option to save that information, ideally in pdf format so they can have a copy and print etc. I want them to be able to choose by month or all the months.



Thanks

These are the steps to achieve this:

• Download a PHP to PDF class (FPDF)
• Retrieve the data from the Database
• Create you PDF document using the FPDF class

Good luck!

thanks

I'm just having trouble because in the examples they give they are filling the pdf with info they actually write..like Hello World or gathering he info from a text file...i'm just wondering how i would do it when the information filling my table is coming from my database and i don't know what it will be

i keep looking for tutorials that are simpler but i can't seem to find any

Well, first you must learn how to read from your database. When you've done that you can use that knowledge to implement it in your PDF.
