About mPDF
mPDF is a PHP class which generates PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML. It is based on FPDF and HTML2FPDF, with a number of enhancements.

Usage
The PDF creation is initialised by the mpdf action, so a page can be downloaded as a PDF file directly from a link such as: http://www.foo.bar/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=mpdf

A more generic way of creating the link is to use the "fullurl" parser function and the FULLPAGENAMEE built in variable as in the following example. [ download this page as a PDF file] This link can then be added to a template which can be transcluded into any page for downloading as a PDF file.

Raw HTML output
You can download the file as a single HTML document by setting format=html in the query-string. Example: http://www.foo.bar/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=mpdf&format=html
