I have a hard time to understand how to extend and use sfFPDF. Let say I want to extend the class and add some of the code that can be found here : http://www.fpdf.org/ in the scrips page.
You can now extend sfFPDF easily. To use sfFPDF in your action:
$fpdf = new sfFPDF();
$pdf = $fpdf->getFPDF();
$pdf->AddPage(); $pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',16); $pdf->Cell(40,10,'Hello World!'); $pdf->Output();
then only return the headers in your action:
return sfView::HEADER_ONLY;
You will need to set the content-type to be pdf too.

The different examples rapidly show how to use FPDF. You will find all main features explained.
