title: Weekly PDF generation using PHP and Highcharts
body: <p>My project uses Highcharts to generate all sorts of charts that are later used on dashboards and as the basis for various performance reports to the managers. A while ago the managers decided they want a big (probably, 50 or more pages) report generated weekly as a PDF document, and it has to include several charts that they are so used to by now. </p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if it is possible to generate such a report (some images, text, tables, plus charts) automatically using PHP, for example, as a cron task that would start every Sunday midnight. I have never created PDFs using PHP, so I would be really grateful if someone could advise me on where to start. </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>What are the best classes for PDF generation using PHP that would include ability to insert images, text, tables, etc.?</li>
  <li>How can I insert a Highcharts graph in the PDF that I am generating?</li>
  <li>How should I approach generating a large PDF document (50+ pages)?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thank you for your time!</p>
