fpdf

Complicated question with a (hopefully) simple answer. I'm looking into FPDF to export a web-page to a PDF. The web-page has been formatted for Print media, but since print media can be kind of iffy with CSS/HTML rendered object, I was hoping exporting to a PDF and then printing would make for less of a design headache. I've scrounged through the FPDF website and I'm not seeing a function for the one thing I was hoping to see. Some kind of include() function. I see a bunch of lines about formatting content, which I'm hoping means Am I over thinking this? Can I simply use include() after the

How to set UTF-8 encoding in php library named FPDI? Here's library: https://www.setasign.com/products/fpdi/manual/ The code: $pdf = new Fpdi(); $pdf->AddPage(); $pdf->setSourceFile('PdfDocument.pdf'); $tplIdx = $pdf->importPage(1); $pdf->useTemplate($tplIdx, 10, 10, 100); $pdf->SetFont('Helvetica'); $pdf->SetTextColor(255, 0, 0); $pdf->SetXY(30, 30); $pdf->Write(0, 'Zażółcić gęślą jaźń'); $pdf->Output(); [SOLUTION] FIRST: I had to add new font with proper letters $pdf->AddFont('DejaVu','','DejaVuSansCondensed.php'); $pdf->SetFont('DejaVu', '', 10, '', false); SECOND: In regard to FPDF library

I am trying to add an existing PDF (created otherwise) to a PDF created with FPDF using FPDI. It seems to work find for most PDFs, but I get the following error: FPDF error: Unable to find xref table. After some testing, I figured out that if I use a PDF version of 1.4 or lower (Acrobat v5 or lower) it seems to work. Looking at the file it seems to be because of a different PDF format. Is there a work around or solution to this? I have probably 10 000+ PDFs uploaded by users, some of the new working, some of them not. It's also annoying that FPDI just dies instead of causing some kind of error

Right now when I use a cell with text, it all stays on one line. I know I could use the write function, but I want to be able to specify the height and width. This is what I have now, but as I said the text does not wrap to stay in the dimensions: $pdf->Cell( 200, 40, $reportSubtitle, 1, 1 ); Ed. Text Wrap: The MultiCell is used for print text with multiple lines. It has the same atributes of Cell except for ln and link . $pdf->MultiCell( 200, 40, $reportSubtitle, 1); Line Height: What multiCell does is to spread the given text into multiple cells, this means that the second parameter defines

I've googled around and found this question very common but I can't seem to find a proper and direct answer. I'm using FPDF and I want to generate tables using MultiCell() since I need the line break property of it. Tried Cell() but it can't read the line break. $col1="PILOT REMARKS\n\n"; $pdf->MultiCell(189, 10, $col1, 1, 1); $col2="Pilot's Name and Signature\n".$name; $pdf->MultiCell(63, 10, $col2, 1); $pdf->Ln(0); $col3="Date Prepared\n".$date; $pdf->MultiCell(63, 10, $col3, 1); But I can't generate it properly 'cause MultiCell() stacks the result. How can I achieve having MultiCell()

I have a web form that users can fill out and that content fills up a PDF with FPDF and PHP. When a user enters a word with an apostrophe, a slash appears before it on the PDF. Similarly, special characters like trademark symbols are encoded wrong. The FPDF FAQs say to use: $str = utf8_decode($str); But I'm just not sure how to apply that to the whole PDF. I'm trying to think about it as if it was an HTML page but that isn't helping. Any ideas? Figured this out by doing the following (pagesubtitle is the name of the text field in the form): $reportSubtitle = stripslashes($_POST['pagesubtitle']
