+<h1>Minimal example</h1>
+Let's start with the classic example:
+<div class="source">
+<pre><code>&lt;?php
+<span class="kw">require(</span><span class="str">'fpdf.php'</span><span class="kw">);
+
+</span>$pdf <span class="kw">= new </span>FPDF<span class="kw">();
+</span>$pdf<span class="kw">-&gt;</span>AddPage<span class="kw">();
+</span>$pdf<span class="kw">-&gt;</span>SetFont<span class="kw">(</span><span class="str">'Arial'</span><span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'B'</span><span class="kw">,</span>16<span class="kw">);
+</span>$pdf<span class="kw">-&gt;</span>Cell<span class="kw">(</span>40<span class="kw">,</span>10<span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'Hello World!'</span><span class="kw">);
+</span>$pdf<span class="kw">-&gt;</span>Output<span class="kw">();
+</span>?&gt;</code></pre>
+</div>
+<p class='demo'><a href='tuto1.php' target='_blank' class='demo'>[Demo]</a></p>
+After including the library file, we create an FPDF object.
+The <a href='../doc/fpdf.htm'>FPDF()</a> constructor is used here with the default values: pages are in A4 portrait and
+the unit of measure is millimeter. It could have been specified explicitly with:
+<div class="source">
+<pre><code>$pdf <span class="kw">= new </span>FPDF<span class="kw">(</span><span class="str">'P'</span><span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'mm'</span><span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'A4'</span><span class="kw">);
+</span></code></pre>
+</div>
+It's possible to use landscape (<code>L</code>), other page sizes (such as <code>Letter</code> and
+<code>Legal</code>) and units (<code>pt</code>, <code>cm</code>, <code>in</code>).
+<br>
+<br>
+There's no page at the moment, so we have to add one with <a href='../doc/addpage.htm'>AddPage()</a>. The origin
+is at the upper-left corner and the current position is by default set at 1 cm from the
+borders; the margins can be changed with <a href='../doc/setmargins.htm'>SetMargins()</a>.
+<br>
+<br>
+Before we can print text, it's mandatory to select a font with <a href='../doc/setfont.htm'>SetFont()</a>, otherwise the
+document would be invalid. We choose Arial bold 16:
+<div class="source">
+<pre><code>$pdf<span class="kw">-&gt;</span>SetFont<span class="kw">(</span><span class="str">'Arial'</span><span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'B'</span><span class="kw">,</span>16<span class="kw">);
+</span></code></pre>
+</div>
+We could have specified italics with I, underlined with U or a regular font with an empty string
+(or any combination). Note that the font size is given in points, not millimeters (or another user
+unit); it's the only exception. The other standard fonts are Times, Courier, Symbol and ZapfDingbats.
+<br>
+<br>
+We can now print a cell with <a href='../doc/cell.htm'>Cell()</a>. A cell is a rectangular area, possibly framed,
+which contains a line of text. It is output at the current position. We specify its dimensions,
+its text (centered or aligned), if borders should be drawn, and where the current position
+moves after it (to the right, below or to the beginning of the next line). To add a frame, we would do this:
+<div class="source">
+<pre><code>$pdf<span class="kw">-&gt;</span>Cell<span class="kw">(</span>40<span class="kw">,</span>10<span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'Hello World !'</span><span class="kw">,</span>1<span class="kw">);
+</span></code></pre>
+</div>
+To add a new cell next to it with centered text and go to the next line, we would do:
+<div class="source">
+<pre><code>$pdf<span class="kw">-&gt;</span>Cell<span class="kw">(</span>60<span class="kw">,</span>10<span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'Powered by FPDF.'</span><span class="kw">,</span>0<span class="kw">,</span>1<span class="kw">,</span><span class="str">'C'</span><span class="kw">);
+</span></code></pre>
+</div>
+Remark: the line break can also be done with <a href='../doc/ln.htm'>Ln()</a>. This method additionnaly allows to specify
+the height of the break.
+<br>
+<br>
+Finally, the document is closed and sent to the browser with <a href='../doc/output.htm'>Output()</a>. We could have saved
+it to a file by passing the desired file name.
+<br>
+<br>
+<strong>Caution:</strong> in case when the PDF is sent to the browser, nothing else must be output by the
+script, neither before nor after (no HTML, not even a space or a carriage return). If you send something
+before, you will get the error message: "Some data has already been output, can't send PDF file". If you
+send something after, the document might not display.
