Dear Karthik
Thanks, I am able to convert the xml to pdf as per your suggestion. But I am download the generated pdf file.
My code as shown below.
$buf=pdf_get_buffer($pdf);
$len=strlen($buf);
header("Content-type: application/pdf");
header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=foo.pdf");
header("Content-Length: $len");
print $buf;  

Any suggestions please
