PHP MySQL: Saving PDF to Database

Question

I am generating PDFs with TCPDF, I want to save the generated pdf as blob in a MySQL db. What data should I save to the db? Code for PDF page

Answer 1

Output($name='example_001.pdf', $dest='I')

the values of the $dest string (Destination where to send the document) can be:

I: send the file inline to the browser (default). 
D: send to the browser and force a file download with the name given by name.
F: save to a local server file with the name given by name.
S: return the document as a string (name is ignored).
FI: equivalent to F + I option
FD: equivalent to F + D option
E: return the document as base64 mime multi-part email attachment (RFC 2045)

hope that helps!
