MY PHP CODE
public function getPdfToAllEmpReport(){
//header("Content-type:application/pdf");
$user_id = Auth::user()->get()->id;
$company_id = Auth::user()->get()->company_id;
$input = Input::all();
if(!isset($input) && empty($input)){
$input = array();
}
// Company based Userlist
$userData = CompanyUser::getCompanyUserList()->toArray();
$userRewardsData = $this->getUsersRewards($userData,$input);
$company = CompanyMaster::getCompanyDetails()->toArray();
$search_string = "";
if(!empty($company) && !empty($userRewardsData)){
PDF::SetTitle($company['company_name']." - All Employee Report");
PDF::SetHeaderMargin(5);
PDF::SetFooterMargin(10);
PDF::SetFont('','',10);

MY OUTPUT
I was facing the same issue and engineering solution for this problem ended up as a combination of magic constants and usage of addPage if my calculation showed that we should do a manual page break:
$top_margin = 82;
[...]
if ($pdf->getY() > (300 /* A4 height */ - $top_margin + 40 /* another magic constant */)) {
$pdf->addPage();
}
After writing each row. In your case, you would probably need to adjust the constants, but this solved my problems.
It looks like a bug, that the library is willing to write behind the end of the page region. I don't think, we can get this fixed, because author already moved to development of a new PDF library tc-lib-pdf.
