Can you be more clear: you need to create a PDF using PHP, starting from what? – bluish Jan 12 '11 at 07:10

You can try free libraries like fPdf
FPDF is a PHP class which allows to generate PDF files with pure PHP, that is to say without using the PDFlib library. F from FPDF stands for Free: you may use it for any kind of usage and modify it to suit your needs.

Look into Zend_PDF from Zend Framework - it allows you to create/manipulate PDFs.

@magna with default PHP - no, you need either a library (one of which is Zend_PDF) or an extension - e.g. http://us2.php.net/pdf – StasM Jan 12 '11 at 09:17

Use Zend_PDF I guess.
Check the documentation here: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.pdf.html
It's the best PDF generator for PHP IMO.
