PDF Generation

To enable PDF Generation in Exponent, you'll need to install a PDF Generation Engine.  We currently support three different engines:

  • mPDF
  • dompdf
  • WKHTMLtoPDF

To enable the 'Export to PDF' feature, you'll need to install a PDF Generation Engine and turn on the 'Display Printer-Friendly and Export-to-PDF Links' in a module's configuration settings.

mPDF

The mPDF engine is the preferred package which can be downloaded here and installed as an extension (Must be as a Patch) (or use the 'Mod' tab).  Or you may download the package and extract in the root folder.

dompdf

The dompdf package downloaded here and installed as an extension (Must be as a Patch) (or use the 'Mod' tab).  Or you may download the package and extract in the root folder.

WKHTMLtoPDF 

WKHTMLtoPDF locally, and enter the path to the binary and the temp folder in this tab.    WKHTMLtoPDF binaries can be found here.
