Save invoice to a file

[po00oq]

I have created an php file that creates an invoice. The php file opens and creates an invoice number from a text file. I want to save this invoice to a file (HTML or pdf?) inside the invoice directory. the name should be the invoice number...can anyone help me with this. are there any scripts that will allow me to save this as a pdf?

Thanks in Advance

<?PHP

$filename = 'order.txt';
$fp = fopen($filename, "r");
$contents = fread($fp, filesize($filename));
fclose($fp);

$total= $_POST['Price']+$_POST['Price2']+$_POST['Price3'];
echo "<table border='1' width='953' id='table1' height='275'>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td colspan='4'>";
echo "<p align='center'><font size='5' color='#FF0000'>South Bend &amp; Vicinity Electrical JATC<br></font><font size='2'>56365 Peppermint Rd.<br>South Bend, IN&nbsp; 46619<br>tel. [phone]</font></td>";

Here is a pdf class to write pdfs.

Another option is to create a pdf in the format that you want, including input fields (make them read only) and then use the FDFToolkit from adobe to write the data to the PDF....
