1. Introduction MPDF is a powerful PHP library that generates PDF files from HTML content. It uses the Unicode and HTML rendering engine to convert HTML with CSS styles into a PDF document. The "MPDF download" process refers to generating and forcing a PDF file to be downloaded by the user's browser rather than displayed or saved on the server.
