This is my code for generating pdf using FPDF in php. I want to display the semester, bill month and the billyear in the PDF file. I dont want to display the values in the table.
I want to display at the top of the page. How can i do this? Any suggestion? Thanks in advance. Cheers.

Why dont you use the standard "header()" extend function of FPDF ? http://fpdf.org/en/doc/header.htm
Add this to your code between line $Y_Table_Position = 46
and line $pdf->Cell(15,50,'Anna University Hostels');
, It will display "Semester,Month,Year" color gray in the right top of your page (change Semester,Month,Year with their real values).
//Fields Name position
$Y_Fields_Name_position = 40;
//Table position, under Fields Name
$Y_Table_Position = 46;
// ABOVE IS YOUR ORIGINAL CODE, ADD The FOLOWING LINES
$pdf->SetXY(160,0);
$pdf->SetFont('Times','B',6);
$pdf->SetTextColor('139','140','142');
$pdf->Cell(5,15,'Semester,Month,Year',0,0,'L');
$pdf->SetTextColor('0','0','0');
$pdf->SetXY(16,8);
// CONTINUE WITH ORIGINAL CODE
$pdf->Cell(15,50,'Anna University Hostels');
//First create each Field Name
//Gray color filling each Field Name box
$pdf->SetFillColor(232,232,232);
As you see I go to X=160, Y=0 and create a new Cell with the desired text, custom font and color, after that, I change the color to black (beacause my default font color is white) and go to X=16,Y=8 so your "Anna University Hostels" is printed in the same position. After that you're table will be printed as before.
Hope I understad your question, and this is what you're looking for. (if not leave a comment :) )
