<?php

// Creates an instance of the DOMImplementation class
$imp = new DOMImplementation;

// Creates a DOMDocumentType instance
$dtd = $imp->createDocumentType('graph', '', 'graph.dtd');

// Creates a DOMDocument instance
$dom = $imp->createDocument("", "", $dtd);

// Set other properties
$dom->encoding = 'UTF-8';
$dom->standalone = false;

I had problems to use a DTD from a file. It needed to be resolved relatively and it contained characters that made DomDocument failed to resolve the file.

Encoding and an absolute filename did not help much. So I used the data:// streamwrapper ( http://php.net/manual/en/wrappers.data.php ) as a work-around:

<?php

// relative or absolute filename
$path = '...';

// convert file contents into a filename
$data = file_get_contents($path);
$systemId = 'data://text/plain;base64,'.base64_encode($data);

// ...

// Creates a DOMDocumentType instance
$dtd = $aImp->createDocumentType('qualified name', '', $systemId);

?>

Works like a charm.
