### Additional Installation Options
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to write to PDF, or to include Charts when you write to HTML or PDF, then you will need to install additional libraries:
|
||||
|
||||
#### PDF
|
||||
|
||||
For PDF Generation, you can install any of the following, and then configure PhpSpreadsheet to indicate which library you are going to use:
|
||||
- mpdf/mpdf
|
||||
- dompdf/dompdf
|
||||
- tecnickcom/tcpdf
|
||||
|
||||
and configure PhpSpreadsheet using:
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
// Dompdf, Mpdf or Tcpdf (as appropriate)
|
||||
$className = \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Writer\Pdf\Dompdf::class;
|
||||
IOFactory::registerWriter('Pdf', $className);
|
||||
```
|
||||
or the appropriate PDF Writer wrapper for the library that you have chosen to install.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Chart Export
|
||||
|
||||
For Chart export, we support, which you will also need to install yourself
|
||||
- jpgraph/jpgraph
|
||||
|
||||
and then configure PhpSpreadsheet using:
|
||||
```php
|
||||
Settings::setChartRenderer(\PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Chart\Renderer\JpGraph::class);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can `composer/require` the github version of jpgraph, but this was abandoned at version 4.0; or manually download the latest version that supports PHP 8 and above from [jpgraph.net](https://jpgraph.net/)
|
||||
|
||||
