Hi guy’s
I found this in another issue and it’s run now.

Open this file /application/helpers/mpdf_helper.php and change
$mpdf->WriteHTML((string) $html);
to
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
$mpdf->WriteHTML((string) $html);

You can close this

This actually is just bypassing the real issue.

If you google for

The first result is this:

There is stated that your HTML Document most probably is not formed well and mPDF most probably can not work with some of the use CSS/HTML parts.
This is happening in Line 2229 so pls just double check everything there is working fine
