如何从其他服务器php下载服务器上的pdf文件

Question

I am stuck in a situation where I have to download a pdf file from an absolute path to our server but I am unable to do so. All process working in background and I don't want that front user can see what will happen in background.

Can anyone provide any solution? May be it is so simple but I am stuck.

You can use Copy

$pdf = "http://wwww.somesite.com/something.pdf";
$pdf = str_replace(" ", "%20", $pdf);
$savedpdf = "/rootsomething/savedpdf/saved.pdf";
if(copy($pdf, $savedpdf)){
//The file was copied correctly 
}
