I would like to use PHP to generate a web page and have that page automatically converted into a PDF file for the visitor to my website to see. I've seen several different applications that do that but I don't understand how to install any of them and even if they can be installed PowWeb. Does anyone know??

I think you'd need to use the PDFLib library, but I'm not sure it is installed. Someone with quick access to a phpinfo page could tell you.

It appears not to be installed, according to phpinfo.

My needs are (so far) pretty limited, but I use FPDF without any problems:

It doesn't require PDFLib, but being entirely in PHP it is probably slower.
