I need to generate a PDF at the end of filling out a form and then attach it and send it by email. I need a light because I have no idea which tools to use!

After the form post, mount an HTML "body" even (you don’t need to display it. Save it in a variable), and make the PDF lib of your choice convert into a valid PDF.

Personally use the mPDF for this and solves 95% of my problems (I had a recent problem with large tables and still could not heal. Plus, it’s perfect and super flexible).

After that, write the PDF to the server. In the case of MPDF, use:

$mpdf->Output($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/upload/pdf/'.$nomeArquivo.'.pdf', 'F');

After saving, I take the URL I generated there and use the Phpmailer to send the attached file. To attach something with Phpmailer, use:

$mail->AddAttachment($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/upload/pdf/'.$nomeArquivo.'.pdf);
