Answer 1

To save the generated pdf to a file, use output(), e.g.:

$dompdf = new Dompdf();
$dompdf->loadHtml('<h1>hello world</h1>');
$output = $dompdf->output();
file_put_contents('filename.pdf', $output);

Use may use a path too: file_put_contents('/home/website/public_html/aap_path/temp/filename.pdf', $output); – Winstead

Yes, you can also use an absolute path instead of a relative. – Necrophobia
