Intro to DOMPDF - lightest and simplest PHP library to generate PDF documents
Generating PDF documents out of your app's HTML output is a very common requirement and there are several open source libraries to accomplish this. I came across this need for my project recently and I evaluated many popular ones such as TCPDF, mpdf, FPDF, etc. But the one that truly stood up to my evaluation in terms of efficiency (minimal footprint) and ease of implementation was DOMPDF.

Dompdf as a Phar
I am using Dompdf to create my pdf. However, I want the Dompdf project into a reusable phar. How do I do that? Do I need to leave the dependencies in the project, or can I put them into their own phar? I just want the breakdown on how to easily do this from scratch.

API-driven dynamic PDF generator.
This is what I did. I just coded a little PHP script that lets me select templates and add pages, and type in markdown, and that gets wrapped in a pre-defined template and piped to a preview page. I have a print button to print to PDF, and an edit button to make changes. I could send it through something like dompdf if I didn't want to deal with browser quirks.

What do you use to make PDFs? What problems do you have?
https://github.com/spatie/browsershot or any other package which uses puppeteer / headless chrome. Found this to be the best solution when compared with all the other pdf tools. This alongside with the CSS print module polyfill https://github.com/pagedjs/pagedjs makes working with PDFs a breeze.
