I want to generate a pdf by using rpdf plugin. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

Google is your friend here... :slight_smile:

What are the gems or plugins will be required for that? Is there any tutorial available for this? Is it possible to create table structure into it? If anyone knows any URL then that will be great.

You need http://ruby-pdf.rubyforge.org/pdf-writer/ as rpdf is dependent on this gem. The documentation here describes very thoroughly how to make PDF's

The only other thing you need is an example of using Rpdf on top of this - e.g. in a view:
