generating pdfs in php

Hi

I need some help creating pdfs in php. I have been having nothing but trouble. I have used tdpdf5 and it loses the table of contents. I have tried dompdf but the output looks different in the pdf than the html.

Can anyone advise of a reliable tool for making pdfs? I didnt think it would be this difficult.

Is tcpdf6 worth trying. I cant find any examples or tutorials and it seems to different than tcpdf5.

Thanks in advance

Haven't used it myself, but TCPDF gets high marks from experts here at EE:

There are plenty of examples at the site:

When i passed the pdf output from tcpdf through a pdf validator it got loads of errors but that was version 5.
I dont really understand what the cells are tcpdf 6, I have been experimenting with mpdf but i have heard good things about tcpdf. Can i just ignore the cells as they are what put me off in the first place.

Thanks
