I am working on a system for a college which caters for their exams and printing of their certificates in Cakephp 2.1. I have a template of the certificate which i want to adopt as the skeleton where variables like name and grade will be printed on per student. Is it possible to use such a template in cakephp? If yes how? If no, is there any other way i can go about it?
I've used the TCPDF library and CakePHP before, with decent results in a very similar thing - producing PDF certificates.
You can create a html template for the certificate and then use this CakePDF plugin to generate pdfs from it.
