  Description     : PHP class that allows the generation of PDF files

FPDF is a PHP class which allows to generate PDF files with pure PHP,
that is to say without using the PDFlib library.  The advantage is that
PDFlib requires a fee for a commercial usage.  F from FPDF stands for
Free: you may use it for any kind of usage and modify it to suit your
needs.

FPDF has other advantages: high level functions. Here is a list of its
main features:

- Choice of measure unit, page format and margins 
- Page header and footer management 
- Automatic page break 
- Automatic line break and text justification 
- Image support (JPEG and PNG) 
- Colors 
- Links 
- TrueType, Type1 and encoding support 
- Page compression 

FPDF requires no extension (except Zlib to activate compression) and
works with PHP4 and PHP5.
