    Hey, all–

    Any ideas on how to have an PHP application form, upon submit, write to a PDF file or a Text file that is automatically downloaded that the user can print out? Another option would be to output the text onto the Thank You page and have them print it manually, but if they close the page without printing it, then it’s gone.

    Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions or alternate solutions? I’ve looked briefly into FPDF, but at first glance, that seems to just output text that you designate in the FPDF code. Not sure…

    Thanks!
