    For creating PDF files from HTML and CSS, check out DOMpdf.

    While this solution doesn’t support the full range of HTML and CSS and its rendering can be a pain sometimes, it has one advantage: it does not require any special binaries to be installed (like wkhtmltopdf). It should run on your average shared PHP hosting.

    Usage example:

    <?php
require_once("dompdf_config.inc.php");

$html =
  '<html><body>'.
  '<p>Put your html here, or generate it with your favourite '.
  'templating system.</p>'.
  '</body></html>';

$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$dompdf->load_html($html);
$dompdf->render();
$dompdf->stream("sample.pdf");

?>
