Generates PDFs on-the-fly from ExpressionEngine templates.
Shine PDF uses the mPDF library to generate PDFs from your (X)HTML and CSS.
In addition to all options that can be passed to the {exp:channel:entries} tag pair, Shine PDF also accepts the following parameters:
{exp:shine_pdf:make
format=“A4”
default_font_size=“11”
default_font=“Helvetica”
margin_left=“15”
margin_right=“15”
margin_top=“16”
margin_bottom=“16”
margin_header=“9”
margin_footer=“9”
orientation=“p”
margin_top_auto=“no”
margin_bottom_auto=“no”
}
Please refer to the docs for complete usage instructions.
NB: This is a large download (~9mb) due to the fact that a slightly edited version of the mPDF Library has been included in the package. Unfortunately, this is unavoidable.

I am trying to generate 700 pdf with this.
And it takes approx 40-45 min to generate all 700 pdf. Is this the genuine time ?
Also I am facing problem that In my evening time PDF generation goes well but during the morning hours it keeps on loading and loading, nothing comes up. Any suggestion?

Perfect add-on, saved loads of time and money in development. Note: having the domain in the image url breaks the image.

Brilliant - thanks for this. Once I worked out how to get it to automatically download the PDF’s (edit headers in mpdf.php) it did exactly what I needed.

It works, but I’m getting some really odd behaviour: any content I put between the main tag pair gets repeated 3 times. In other words, if I have the text “HELLO WORLD” between the tag pair, the generated PDF looks like this:
HELLO WORLDHELLO WORLDHELLO WORLD

This is the only PDF solution that worked for me (didn’t try the paid ones). It works perfectly and it’s very easy to use. The only thing I think it’s missing is something to force download PDFs like other addons have.

Really cool pdf maker but how do you open the pdf in a new window. Tried colorbox inline html but no joy. Any ideas guys?
