Automatic download of dynamically generated pdf sheets using PHP and FPDF

Question

So my problem is as follows. I have a bunch of articles and every article has a specification sheet.

These sheets are in pdf format and dynamically generated using PHP and the FPDF class. For convenience i would like to automatically generate all articles' (about 200) specification sheets and download them all to a specific file directory.

I tried a solution using PHPs file_get_contents which won't work because the pdf file does not seem to be generated at time of the function call.

I haven't found any suitable solution to this problem so far.

Answer 1

To save files to a folder

require('fpdf.php');

//create a FPDF object
$pdf=new FPDF();

$pdf->Output($dir.$filename,'F');

see this question may help you.
