@fm - This article has been superseded by my newer article, as I realised there were some flaws in this one. Have a read of that one and you will see I have taken into account page breaks in a more comprehensive manner.

there is an error, when text data are printed at end of page, frames are printed at next page. you need to put

if ($pdf->GetPage()!=$startPage) $pdf->SetPage($startPage);
before
$pdf->SetXY($startX,$startY);

and

$startPage=$pdf->GetPage();
after
$startY = $pdf->GetY();

In response to jmmontero,

“How can I print the same headers on each page using TCPDF?”

Simply define the header parameters:
$pdf->SetHeaderData(PDF_HEADER_LOGO, PDF_HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH, PDF_HEADER_TITLE, PDF_HEADER_STRING);

Set the font:
$pdf->setHeaderFont(Array(PDF_FONT_NAME_MAIN, ”, PDF_FONT_SIZE_MAIN));

Set the margin:
$pdf->SetHeaderMargin(PDF_MARGIN_HEADER);

Then call AddPage() and add your page data.

Excellent and Smart solution!! I took your approach and it worked for me!.

By the way, if you don’t mind I would like to ask you, How can I print the same headers on each page using TCPDF? Your answer will be greatly appreciated.

I appreciate your help.

It seems that there must be a way to maybe extend the class and rewrite the MultiCell function so that borders get painted on every screen. I am trying to create a single/multi-page invoice, and having the borders painted only on some pages is not acceptable.

Wow, yes that is an issue with this method. A quick and dirty answer would be to utilise the max height ($maxh) parameter of multicell. That is a bit brutal however and is not a proper solution. I will have a look at this over the weekend and see what I can come up with, I suspect it affects my implementation too..
