As each database is designed differently there aren't any general code that
will take the database and push it into a pdf, you need to make your own
little script to fetch the data you need.

--- codeless example ---
/* connect to server and select database */
/* query the data you want and then fetch row by row */
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($resource)) {
/* push the data into the pdf */
}
/* eject the pdf, don't forget to send some header() */
--- eof ---
