Karol,
You're more than welcome to submit a patch.
We have a large body of work in-progress including typesetting and more
image format handling. A major upgrade to add improved memory handling was
just completed.
There's lots of progress, and building a pdf implementation from the ground
up is no small peice of work. As with all things framework, modify the code,
submit a patch; if it's good, it will be accepted.
Less complaining, more contributing
Kevin

Subject: [fw-general] The state of Zend_Pdf
Hi everyone,
I decided to use ZF for a reporting system that generates PDF documents.
It's really great piece of code in general but IMHO there should be some
notice in documentation about the state of the Pdf module.
It's missing a lot of features, I believe it's lagging behind the rest of
the Framework.
I already implemented some of my own stuff to draw tables, align text etc.
But now I missing functionality to draw URLs and there's more.
Also Zend_Pdf_Page::rawWrite() is missing implementation. So there's no
way
to code around it without modifying the class.
I know there are plans to implement those things, but IMHO there should be
a
warning in the manual to keep people aware about stuff they'll won't be
able
to do with Zend_Pdf, so they can review it more thoroughly before starting
a
project.
Is there any timeline to make this module more usable?
Do you look for contributors to help with it?
Cheers
Karol
