Answer 1

it works to me, at end my code looks like:

$html =
  ''.
  '
Put your html here, or generate it with your favourite '.
  'templating system.
'.
  '';
function pdf_create($html, $filename='', $stream=TRUE) 
{
    require_once('scripts/vendor/dompdf/dompdf/dompdf_config.inc.php');
    $savein = '';
    $dompdf = new DOMPDF();
    $dompdf->load_html($html);
    $dompdf->render();
    $canvas = $dompdf->get_canvas();
    $font = Font_Metrics::get_font("arial", "normal","12px");

    /*// the same call as in my previous example
    $canvas->page_text(540, 773, "Page {PAGE_NUM} of {PAGE_COUNT}",
                   $font, 6, array(0,0,0));*/

    $pdf = $dompdf->output();      // gets the PDF as a string

    file_put_contents("arquivo.pdf",$pdf);  // save the pdf file on server

    unset($html);
    unset($dompdf); 

}

pdf_create($html);
