Utter nonsense.  GNU/Linux systems have the built-in capability to generate 
PDFs that is used by graphical browsers (like Chromium).  Windows systems 
usually have that capability by installing PDF printer drivers (that often 
come with PDF software, like Adobe Acrobat).

This question does not appear to have anything to do with PHP programming, 
but it might be badly worded.
