You can process the form using PHP and you could either save the information in a database or create a PDF... but creating PDF files using PHP isnt going to be particularly easy from what i know... you can read more at http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/PHP/U...mic-pdf-Files/

If you're new to web development, it's too deep a learning curve to get into that right now. One way would be to convert your data to xml, then use xsl stylings (with something called fo) to convert to pdf. Though like cmjvulavala said its really complicated. I wouldn't go down that road unless you are an expert. It would be much easier to use a css stylesheet to output whatever you want into a printable format.
