Hi,
I have a client that wants to be able to print certificates (pdf's) for their
clients. What I do is retrieving a query resultset.
Then i use cfdocument:
<cfdocument
format="PDF"
pageType="A4"
margintop="0"
marginbottom="0"
marginright="0"
marginleft="0"
unit="cm"
backgroundvisible="no"
overwrite="no"
fontembed="yes"
scale="100">
Then within a cfoutput tag I have html to position the dynamic content from
myQueryResultset along with static content (texts and images). I use styles to
position divs.
I use an htmlvalidator to validate my html and it validated ok.
This works fine when my query resultset contains 1 row: I get 1 pdf with all
content in the correct position.
But when myQueryResultset contains multiple rows I get multiple pdfs but the
layout of the pdfs gets messed up:
The first pdf is empty, on subsequesnt pdfs the position of the divs is changed
and also their relative position changed.
Excerpt of the stylesheet I use:
<style type="text/css">
body{
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
..Ondergetekenden {
position: absolute;
top: 114mm;
left: 30mm;
font-size: 13pt;
}
..Cursist {
position: absolute;
top: 131mm;
left: 30mm;
font-size: 26pt;
font-weight: bold;
}
..Geboren {
position: absolute;
width: 20 cm;
top: 153 mm;
left: 30 mm;
font-size: 13pt;
}
Some other things:
HTML validates OK;
Including the styles in a style block or including it as an external style
sheet makes no difference.
Do I have to use tables instead of divs? Do I have to use inches to position
divs instead of mm? Inline styles? Also specify bottom attribute in the styles?
I hope someone can point me in the right direction to render pdfs correctly.
Thanks,
Marc
