Question

I trying to add DOM PDF library to my codeigniter application

1.Download dompdf and copy the dompdf folder to libraries folder.

2.Create file named Dompdf.php in libraries folder

In my controller

public function pdf_test()
   {
       $this->load->library('Dompdf');
       $this->Dompdf->loadHtml('hello world');
       $this->pdf->render();
       $this->pdf->stream("welcome.pdf");
   }

Dompdf.php

<?php defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');

    {
        return get_instance();
    }
    /**

    public function load_view($view, $data = array())
    {
