php mPDF, impossible to set font-family and font-size

问题

Ok after so much time spent reading their documentation, and my tests I decided to consult the SO community for a help.

I use mPDF to generate pdf from HTML. The library works fine, pdf is produced etc.

But I wasn't able to set the font-family and font-size as I want it.

Code I tried:

$mpdf = new mPDF('c', 'A4');
$mpdf->CSSselectMedia='mpdf';
$mpdf->setAutoTopMargin = 'stretch';
$mpdf->setAutoBottomMargin = 'stretch';
$mpdf->setBasePath($url);
$mpdf->SetHeader($url);
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html);
$mpdf->SetFooter($url);
$mpdf->Output($filename.'.pdf', 'I');

In my stylesheet with mpdf media, I have bunch of styles that are dealing with all of the html code. And I also have some rules for the font-family and the font-size ie:

body{
        border: none;
        font-size: 10pt;
        colosr:#000;
        font-family: Times, Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif !important;
    }

But the font settings are not apllied at all.

I also tried the following params on instantiation:

$mpdf = new mPDF('UTF-8', 'A4',9, 'dejavuserif');

But still nothing. I still have sans-serif in the pdf, and also in very big size.

Can someone shed some light on this?

There are two ways with which u can add your font to generated pdf:

1. Setting font to mpdf

Keep your fonts in ttfonts folder in mpdf lib. Then, in config_fonts.php file add your font in array :

$this->fontdata = array( "YourNewFont" => array( 'R' => "YourNewFont.ttf"));

Then set font to the mpdf object using :

$mpdf->SetFont('YourNewFont');

Now, your fornt is set. Using $mpdf->WriteText('My Text'); will add text to pdf with the set font.

2. Use font in Html

Add your font family in a css file using @font-face {}

Then, import that css file like below:

$stylesheet = file_get_contents('MyStyleWithFont.css');

$mpdf->WriteHTML($stylesheet,1);

Now, you can use your font with html. Define font-family for the text in either css file or inline with html. Use $mpdf->WriteHTML(My Text); to print html.

I know i'm late, hope it would be helpful for someone in future. While creating mPDF object set the mod parameter as 'UTF-8' or ' ' instead of 'c'. 'c' will force system to use core fonts only and thus neglect the custom font.

$mpdf = new mPDF('UTF-8','A4')

Note: this is applicable for mPDF v6 and below
