gotenberg VS mPDF

Use a server-side headless browser such as puppeteer to convert the HTML to PDF. This is the most reliable free option, but requires a server. If you need to use it in production, we recommend you use Gotenberg.

We're using Gotenberg[1] to convert a rendered web page (with Elixir/Phoenix, in our case) to PDF. Works like a charm and we can use our existing frontend code/styling (including SVG graph generators) which is a huge bonus.

If you also want to convert Markdown or LibreOffice formats, the self-hosted API Gotenberg is worth checking out

I found a project that does exactly that (https://github.com/gotenberg/gotenberg). It’s my best bet for now, but I still need to test GraalVM integration with JS runtimes (and test JS libraries) and the Kotlin compiler targeting Node.

Gotenberg is a Docker-based stateless API for PDF generation from HTML and Markdown files.

Think you mean https://gotenberg.dev ?

We use https://gotenberg.dev/ with handlebars templates.

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.

Not sure if it has all the things you need but we use https://mpdf.github.io/

I'm currently using mPDF for large reports including tables, graphs, and complex formatting.

mPDF (very similar to TCPDF)

Writing a piece of code for a problem that has already being solved, tested and approved by other developers slows down the development of an application by a huge amount of time. For instance, trying to create a functionality that enables PDF files to be downloadable on a website is a waste of time when you have a package like mPDF that does that.

About mPDF https://mpdf.github.io/ "mPDF is a PHP library which generates PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML."

For PHP-based applications I've used mPDF[0], which generates PDFs from HTML without using a browser. I'm sure it can't handle all the CSS bells/whistles that a "modern" website uses, but it's worked well for me.
