Generate a pdf from HTML Code

[Thierry5E43]

Hi,

The website I currently work on has a section where I need to send a schedule to customers.  I fill the fields (activity, start time, end time, etc..) and it generates a schedule.  Right now It sends this schedule as an HTML email.  It looks really nice, but my boss wants that is sends a PDF attachment instead.  I looked on the web for answers but couldn't find anything satisfying.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Php To PDF can do this very simply. Does your hosting server support PHP scripts?

Yes it supports PHP scripts.

5$ for each 125 pdf...  This can get very expensive !

[Nancy OShea]

$5 for what?  Where did you see that?

Taken from their site :

How much does each PDF generation cost?

Each PDF generation costs 1 token. Every account starts with 30 tokens and more can be purchased in small or bulk increments for as little as under a penny each.

yes php to pdf is not free, it's a web services. I tried once to use it, but as soon as the generration was in process token was needed. perhaps that I did miss a step somewhere, but without token PDF was not generated

that's why I went on different other API listed above.
