Adding header and footer with page number in dompdf

Question

I am working with Codeigniter and I successfully implemented dompdf for generating PDF files. Now I have issues on adding a header and footer in generated PDF.

Answer 1

I have also tried to add PHP code into the html but have never got a chance to make it work. here is the complete inline code which I guarantee works:

require_once("dompdf_config.inc.php");
$html ='
        
        
Hello Hello
Hello Hello 2
Hello Hello 3
        
        ';

$dompdf = new DOMPDF();
$dompdf->load_html($html);

$dompdf->render();

$canvas = $dompdf->get_canvas();
$font = Font_Metrics::get_font("helvetica", "bold");
$canvas->page_text(72, 18, "Header: {PAGE_NUM} of {PAGE_COUNT}", $font, 6, array(0,0,0));

$dompdf->stream("my_pdf.pdf", array("Attachment" => 0));
?>
