We have a new web site that we are currently developing - [login to view URL]
This page shows a clickable map with a list of properties. As you click from state to state, the site will only show properties within that state.
We have created a print button that will generate a printout of the properties that are currently selected (All or an individual state)
When the print button is clicked an export file is generated - it has a header and footer and a separator between each of the states.
What we are in need of:
Our programmer has tried to create a pdf export for us, but has had difficulty in creating the layout properly. We need a pdf button that will go next to the print button. When the pdf button is clicked - it will generate a pdf file that the visitor can save or print using the adobe reader controls within their browser. The PDF file that is generated must have a header and footer on EVERY page. This is the same header and footer that currently shows when clicking the print button on the page. The problem is that our programmer is only able to place the header at the top of page 1 and the footer at the bottom of the last page.
Again, in summary, We need the site to generate a pdf file that shows whatever properties are currently selected - that has a header and footer on every page. It should have the same layout and fields shown that the current print button has.
The site is created on our own custom CMS using PHP, MySQL and Smarty. Our programmer was using dompdf to try to generate this:
[login to view URL],39,37,38,19,21,22,23,24,35,25,26,27,34,36,28,29,30,32,31,33,40,45,41,43,44,42,46,48,47,49,50,51&print=1
for PDF file (just add &print=1 at the end of the URL from the regular print button that is already on the site.) As you can see, it is not correct - it does not have header and footer on every page and the visitor has no ability to save and print it from an adobe reader toolbar.
We have attached a sample pdf of how the end result should look.

Expert developer is here. I am very much experience with Smarty, PHP, Mysql. I did similar job in many projects. I am ready to start right now. I just need the template for PDF. Please send message to discuss. Thanks :)
I'll be happy to provide you with much better pdf generator, the major problem with this task as I understand is that the header and footer have to be set on every page and the content have to be aligned properly to fit and display like on the html print version. I'll provide you with almost exact layout, the only thing I'll need will be some access to the site/database. Regards
