TCPDF Redirect after the print dialog closes

Question

I have an order form which generates a pdf then prints it automatically using TCPDF. to print it i have to open it which opens a web PDF.

here is the code that opens my pdf

$pdf->Output('test.pdf', 'I');

how can i redirect the user after the print dialog has closed

Please post your code to open the PDF. Do you open it in a new window by javascript? — tillz, Jul 18 '14 at 00:42
If it's printed from the web page, look at [**`this`**](http://stackoverflow.com/a/19115657/2518525). — Darren, Jul 18 '14 at 00:42
try the answers from the page you linked, but replace `window.close();` with `window.location.href='http://target.site'`. If this doesn't work (seems like different browsers behave different) - sorry, don't know — tillz, Jul 18 '14 at 00:49
Might be best to overlay a message on your screen once the print dialog has opened, and try and force the user to "click here to proceed" etc — scrowler, Jul 18 '14 at 01:58

You should avoid the code only as an answer rather you should provide a description for the OP as well as for future readers otherwise it can be downvoted or deleted permanently. – Suraj Kumar Mar 08 '20 at 13:52
