I’m using PHPPdf library to generate PDFs on the fly in my Symfony2 app.

I’m using PHPPdf library to generate PDFs on the fly in my Symfony2 app. However I could not find a way to dump/write/save PDF raw data to a file.

From Symfony controller I tried this:

$content = $this->render('AcmeBundle:PDF:template.xml.twig');
file_put_contents('documents/123.pdf', $content);

but as it seems I get rendered HTML and not PDF binary data. When I add @Pdf annotation all output is being routed to PDF document and into browser but I need to save raw data instead for later retrieval.

I looked into FacadeBuilder but coudln’t find anything useful.

Any help would be much appreciated…

    Take a look at this, I think you should use $content = $facade->render($xml); like in the example action.
