Generate, read, and merge PDFs in PHP — no GPL, no FPDI

Every PHP project eventually needs a PDF — an invoice, a ticket, a report, a

signed contract. And every time, you hit the same two walls:

• 
  Generating PDFs usually means
  — and FPDI's PDF-parsing add-on is proprietary.

.

Try it

• 
  GitHub: https://github.com/dskripchenko/php-pdf
  


• 
  Packagist: composer require dskripchenko/php-pdf
  


• MIT-licensed, PHP 8.2+, pure PHP.

If your PHP app generates PDFs and you've been paying the mpdf/FPDI licensing tax

— or shelling out to a native binary — this might be worth a look. Feedback and

issues welcome.
