Configuration

Dompdf allows you to configure a bunch of things on your PDF file. In previous versions we used to accomplish this through environment vars, now you can change this configuration keys on the fly:

Route::get('/pdf/view', function() {
    $html = view('pdfs.example')->render();
    
    $defaultOptions = PDF::getOptions();
    $defaultOptions->setDefaultFont('Courier');
    
    return PDF::setOptions($defaultOptions)->load($html)->download();
});
