pdf-generation

What I am wanting to do is create a PDF ideally from HTML code. I found a class called dompdf but I'm having issues with font and page breaks.

Does anyone know of another script or even a better way in general to generate PDF files?

The reason why I am converting HTML to PDF is because I want someone to use a WYSIWYG editor to create the contents and click save to generate their PDF file...

Any input would be greatly apprecaited
