You can integrate the DomPDF with Codeigniter in two easy steps.

1) Download the domPDF library and place it into application/library directory.

2) Create a file name pdf.php file, place following code inside the file and place it into library directory.

ci()->load->view($view, $data, TRUE);

        $this->load_html($html);
    }
}
?>

Now in your Controller file call it as this

defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Welcome extends CI_Controller {
 function my_DOMPDF(){
  $this->load->library('pdf');
  $this->pdf->load_view('common/template');
  $this->pdf->render();
  $this->pdf->stream("welcome.pdf");
 }
}
