如何在yii2中使用mPDF？

Question

I have a yii2 project and I work in front end. I make an export to excel , csv , text , and others in my project using kartik export. Because I want to export to pdf , then I install kartik mPDF . But there is an error when I want to export to pdf . What's the problem? This is the error:

The pdf rendering library 'mPDF' was not found or installed at path 'C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\Baru\\advanced/vendor/mpdf/mpdf'.

Answer 1

I think you should change path of mpdf lib in export lib config

 ...
'pdfLibraryPath' => '@app/vendor/mpdf/mpdf' 
 ...

Check your path as error shows, I think advanced part is redundant.

Answer 2

<?php
use kartik\mpdf\Pdf;
return [
 'pdf' => [
        'class' => Pdf::className(),
        'format' => Pdf::FORMAT_A4,
        'orientation' => Pdf::ORIENT_PORTRAIT,
        'destination' => Pdf::DEST_BROWSER,
        'methods' => [
            'SetHeader' => 'Merlano PVT LTD',
            'SetFooter'=> 'Flamez',
        ],
    ],
];

Copy and paste this into your /common/config/main.php
