Is there a way to use the bootstrap to style a html page that will later be converted into a pdf? I'm using the mpdf60 plugin in php, and I only need the style that boostrap offers to use it in exporting a pdf file.

Consider the following code:

    <div class="row"><div class="col-lg-4"></div><div class="col-lg-4">
    <h3>Teste PDF</h3></div><div class="col-lg-4"></div></div>

When I use inside the $ mpdf-> WriteHTML () function, the bootstrap style does not catch, just coming from the html, or any inline css. Using this mpdf60 plugin or any other, is there any way I can use the bootstrap as css?

You can add css files in mpdf to solve this problem, but you should consult the mpdf manual to see if it supports all bootstrap settings: mPdf Supported CSS

include('mpdf.php');
$mpdf= new mPDF();
$stylesheet = file_get_contents('bootstrap.css');
$mpdf->WriteHTML($stylesheet,1);
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html,2);
$mpdf->Output();
exit;
