 * Hi,
 * I’m web dev, but new in WordPress. In my WP site have posts with many customs
   fields (custom fields with ACF plugin).
    - I want to make a php file to **generate pdf file** with **classic php/pdf 
      library**.
    - And a link in all post pages to get the pdf : [http://www.test.com/getPdfExport.php?postID=1234](http://www.test.com/getPdfExport.php?postID=1234)
 * But where I can put the php code ? In the theme directory ? In the plugin ?
    
   And what can be URL in my post page ?
 * Can someone help me to start ?
    Thanks.

 * You could put it in your theme’s functions.php file, and then call the function
   in your template for single posts so that it echos that URL with a variable that
   will enter the Post ID, but then if you switch Themes you’d lose that, so personally
   I would make it a plugin, if I were you.
