PHP - FPDF Multicell function does not make a new line

Question

I'm trying to make a newline inside a multicell. What I've done is:

$pdf->MultiCell(90,10,'test'.'\n'.'test',1,0,'C',1);

According to the manual the multicell should parse the '\n' character and render a newline but it does not (it prints the two byte string '\n' alongside with the actual text)

Answer 1

Try to use "\n" instead of '\n' (or even PHP_EOL predefined constant). Use double quotes.
