Method:html2pdf ->convertFile('/path/to/source.html', ['pageSize' => 'A4']) ->saveAs('/path/to/output.pdf');">Yii::$app->html2pdf ->convertFile('/path/to/source.html', ['pageSize' => 'A4']) ->saveAs('/path/to/output.pdf');You may setup default conversion options at the \yii2tech\html2pdf\Manager level: [ 'html2pdf' => [ 'class' => 'yii2tech\html2pdf\Manager', 'viewPath' => '@app/pdf', 'converter' => [ 'class' => 'yii2tech\html2pdf\converters\Wkhtmltopdf', 'defaultOptions' => [ 'pageSize' => 'A4' ], ] ], ], ...];">return [ 'components' => [ 'html2pdf' => [ 'class' => 'yii2tech\html2pdf\Manager', 'viewPath' => '@app/pdf', 'converter' => [ 'class' => 'yii2tech\html2pdf\converters\Wkhtmltopdf', 'defaultOptions' => [ 'pageSize' => 'A4' ], ] ], ], ...];Note: the actual list of available conversion options depends on the particular converter to be used.Template usage You may create PDF files rendering PHP templates (view files), which composes HTML output.Such files are processed as regular view files, allowing passing params and layout wrapping.Method \yii2tech\html2pdf\Manager::render() used for this:html2pdf ->render('invoice', ['user' => Yii::$app->user->identity]) ->saveAs('/path/to/output.pdf');">Yii::$app->html2pdf ->render('invoice', ['user' => Yii::$app->user->identity]) ->saveAs('/path/to/output.pdf');You may use a shared layout for the templates, which can be setup via \yii2tech\html2pdf\Manager::$layout.During each rendering view is working in context of \yii2tech\html2pdf\Template object, which can be used to adjustlayout or PDF conversion options inside view file:context;$context->layout = 'layouts/payment'; // use specific layout for this template// specify particular PDF conversion for this template:$context->pdfOptions = [ 'pageSize' => 'A4', // ...];?>InvoiceFor: name ?>...">/* @var $this \yii\web\View *//* @var $context \yii2tech\html2pdf\Template *//* @var $user \app\models\User */$context = $this->context;$context->layout = 'layouts/payment'; // use specific layout for this template// specify particular PDF conversion for this template:$context->pdfOptions = [ 'pageSize' => 'A4', // ...];?>InvoiceFor: $user->name ?>...

Show you how to use Foxit PDF SDK to convert from html to PDF.Prepare a HTML2PDF engine directoryBefore running the html2pdf demo, you should first extract engine package to a desired directory (for example, extract the package to a directory: “D:/htmltopdf/win/” for Windows), and then pass the engine file path to the API com.foxit.sdk.addon.conversion.Convert.fromHTML to convert html to PDF file.Configure the demoFor html2pdf demo, you can configure the demo in the “\examples\simple_demo\html2pdf\html2pdf.java” file, or you can configure the demo with parameters directly in a command prompt.
