There seem to be frustratingly few resources and tools to help with what
seems like a relatively simple and common word processing need.
I want to server-side generate a report from a database, automatically
paginate it and prepare a table of contents ready for printing. I'm
scripting in PHP against a MySQL database. I already generate the
report in HTML/CSS for presentation on a web page where browser printing
leaves much to be desired anyway. Content includes styled text and
images. I don't know ahead of time how much text will be provided by
the database or the sizes of any images which are served by URLs. The
final document can be of the order of 100-200 pages.
Any suggestions or recommendations?
Thanks
Robert Cordingley
