Hi, Here is what I have managed untill now:
1. There are some functions/parameters used by FPDI and not included in
3.0.003 version of TCPDF - footerlen parameter and pushaders function. For
now I have just commented them out (don't know what it means for footer
:-)
2. I have set class PDF to extend FPDI class. Probably this is not the
best solution but my programming knowledge is pretty limited so...
a) I have modified tcpdf to have "function TCPDF" instead of __construct
b) in pdfprint.php I have included fpdi.php and set
class Pdf extends FPDI
{
function Pdf($map, $printScale, $orientation, $units, $format,
$pdfSettings, $prefmap=true)
{
//parent::__construct($orientation,$units,$format,true);
$this->TCPDF($orientation,$units,$format,true);
....
....
Then I had the problem getting "cannot access protected property" error
for every PDF class variable. After defining all the variables like:
var $prefmap;
var $pdfSettings;
var $defaultFontType;
var $defaultFontSize;
var $margin;
var $xminM;
var $yminM;
var $xmaxM;
var $ymaxM;
var $topLineDelta;
var $topLineY;
var $botLineY;
var $redFactor;
...the rest for reference map but I don't use it...
...it went fine. Why is that? I don't know..
c) in printpdf.php I added:
$this->setSourceFile('PDFDocument.pdf');
// import page 1
$tplIdx = $this->importPage(1);
// use the imported page and place it at point 10,10 with a width of 100
mm
$this->useTemplate($tplIdx, 10, 10, 100);
and I got map with legend displayed in a predefined PDFDocument.pdf.
Unfortunatelly the text from pdf template is left aligned (centrally
aligned in template pdf), some other template text is also put in a wrong
location (compared to its original location in pdf template), etc. I
suppose some things I have to learn/configure and some are even not
possible...
That's all for now except one little question:
Is the legend text somehow limited in height? I have a legend text that is
pretty long and after wirting to pdf, it gets overlapped by another legend
text. The result is pretty bad:
