I'm using codeigniter in my system and mpdf 6.1 to generate pdf. I get an error in chrome 'Failed to load PDF document' every time when I open new tab to preview. What's wrong with that? My code in html to print:



include_once APPPATH . 'third_party/mPDF/mpdf.php';

$title= 'customer';
$html .= '<html>';
$html .= '<body>';
$html .= '<table>';
$html .= '</table>';
$html .= '</body>';
$html .= '</html>';
$mpdf = new mPDF('c', 'A4', '', '', 10, 10, 55, 20, 10, 10);
$mpdf->SetProtection(array('print'));
$mpdf->SetDisplayMode('fullpage');
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html);
$mpdf->setTitle($title);
$mpdf->Output(url_title($title.'.pdf'), 'i');


Thank you :)

  • mPDF is a bit tricky... if you need to generate a PDF from an HTML doc, you'll have a much easier ride with dompdf. That said, the problem seems to be that your $html variable is being overwritten on each statement (each statement says $html = 'something' instead of appending/concatenating each statement to the previous ones ($html .= 'something' ... notice the period). Additionally, if you're using codeigniter, it's much more advisable to load a view in the variable ($html = $this->load->view('viewname', true); and then pass that to mpdf)
