If you want to generate PDF documents using PHP there is TCPPDF class.TCPPDF is an Open source PHP class for generating PDF documents.Beauty of this PHP Class is that it does not required any library for this purpose.
It is object oriented and provides nice documentation regarding how to use .
There are separate folder named “examples ” which guides the user.
Another important feature is the ability to generate various bar code.

Visit this link for more information TCPPDF. TCPPDF Documentation is the link for documentation.Though there are other alternatives like  FPDF,and  pdf factory,  but i would recommend TCPPDF for ease of use and support it provides.
