Question posted in 
I am facing a problem that bootstrap is not working in mpdf.
Is there anyway to solve this issue?
I need all the information in one page just like i did it in preview.
This is the html code:
This is the preview link something like this:
https://elisa.com.my/pdf/test/index1.html
<!DOCTYPE html>

This is the php code where I generate my pdf using MPDF.
The output in the preview was totally not same:https://elisa.com.my/pdf/test/index.php
<?php
include('mpdf60/mpdf.php');
$html = file_get_contents('https://elisa.com.my/pdf/test/index1.html');
$mpdf=new mPDF();
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html);
$mpdf->SetDisplayMode('default');
$mpdf->Output();
?>
Is there any way to achieve make it one page and generate a clone in the preview? I did before using jsPDF but I don’t want it to be in an image

mPDF does not support Bootstrap styles entirely. An option would be some alternative such as headless-chrome based wkhtmltopdf.
According to the mPDF developers on the below github issue, bootstrap is not supported due to the way that it implements the device sizing and also the print overrides.
However there are some workarounds mentioned in the issues:
