# FPDF

`FPDF([string orientation [, string unit [, mixed size]]])`

## Description

This is the class constructor. It allows to set up the page size, the orientation and the unit of measure used in all methods (except for font sizes).

## Parameters

`orientation`
  Default page orientation. Possible values are (case insensitive):
  - `P` or `Portrait`
  - `L` or `Landscape`
  Default value is `P`.
`unit`
  User unit. Possible values are:
  - `pt`: point
  - `mm`: millimeter
  - `cm`: centimeter
  - `in`: inch
  A point equals 1/72 of inch, that is to say about 0.35 mm (an inch being 2.54 cm). This is a very common unit in typography; font sizes are expressed in that unit.
  Default value is `mm`.
`size`
  The size used for pages. It can be either one of the following values (case insensitive):
  - `A3`
  - `A4`
  - `A5`
  - `Letter`
  - `Legal`
  or an array containing the width and the height (expressed in the unit given by `unit`).
  Default value is `A4`.

## Example

Example with a custom 100x150 mm page size:

    $pdf = new FPDF('P','mm',array(100,150));
