[PHP] Re: PDF printing under windows.
Dave Lists [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm generating PDFs under windows using PDFlib and all is easy. What I am
wondering though, and google reveals nothing usefull, can I print the PDF
to a network printer from windows? I'm presuming to print the file I would
ahve to use COM and open it under Acrobat? Anyone done this before and
have any pointers? I'm printing out invoices and what to automate the
task.
I print PDF files using the following code (which prints them to the default
printer):
SHELLEXECUTEINFO sei;
ZeroMemory(sei, sizeof(SHELLEXECUTEINFO));
sei.cbSize = sizeof(SHELLEXECUTEINFO);
sei.fMask = SEE_MASK_FLAG_NO_UI | SEE_MASK_NOCLOSEPROCESS;
sei.lpVerb = _T(print);
sei.lpFile = pFile;// - complete path to file to print
sei.hwnd = CDLBUtils::g_Data.m_hWnd;
sei.nShow = SW_HIDE;
if (ShellExecuteEx(sei) sei.hInstApp (HINSTANCE)32) {
// ok
} else {
// failed
}
Note1: You can change the default printer before calling this.
Note2: Acrobat will launch, and may stay running even after the printing
process has finished

Hello,

I have searched the manual and google, everything that comes up refers
to generating pdfs on the fly, not working with an already made pdf.
Thanks in Advance,
Jason Motes
If you study the structure of pdf in a text editor, you'll notice that it
is quite readable. If you go to the end of a document, prefferably a small
one, you will see the trailer. Here is al list of all bytepositions of the
objects the pdf document contains. These objects can be images, text, page
descriptions, page groups and so on. There can also be a reference to the
properties of the document wich can contain creator, author, title etc. It
is easy to read the objects, but to change them can prove rather
difficult, as you will need to update the trailer informaition with new
byteposition for all objects that comes after the properties (hard to
explain), unless you keep the new info the same length.
But as you only need to extract the title you can do this with a simple
regexp.
while(filelistingstuff) {
$document = file_get_contents($pdf);
if(preg_match(/\/Title\s\((.*?)\)/i,$document,$match)) {
$title = $match[1];
} else {
$title = $filename;
}
}
Hope this helps.

RE: [PHP] Re: PDF from PHP generated HTML, possible?
Many thanks to all (especially Brad) for your input on this.
Although I have not got as far as producing PDFs I have managed to implement
output buffering and saving of generated pages under a hashed name, and of
course retrieving it instead of doing all the queries again. I've trimmed
slightly the code below as I do some trimming of the session contents before
hashing. I also have to work out how to handle some functionality that uses
session data, so will probably generate a 'hashed' csv file along with the
html file.
For those that are interested (if only to comment on my coding skills !!)
what I have done is:
( It may not be pretty but it seems to work )
page1.php
-
?php
session_start();
include(includes/staticHtml.inc.php);
if ($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])
$to_hash = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
else
$to_hash = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$static = new static_html($to_hash);
if ($static-status == 'new') // Did not exist
{
ob_start(); // Start output buffering
}else{
echo $static-html;
exit();
}
... query processing etc ...
$str = ob_get_contents();
$static-save_html($str);
ob_flush();
?
staticHtml.inc.php
--
?php
class static_html {
var $status;
var $html;
var $hash;
var $static_path;
var $path;
function static_html($fullUrl) {
$this-$static_path = ../static/;
$ssn = implode('_',$_SESSION);
$this-hash = md5($fullUrl.$ssn);
$this-path = $this-$static_path.$this-hash.'.htm';
$this-find_html();
}
function find_html() {
if (file_exists($this-path))
{
$this-html = file_get_contents($this-path);
$this-status = 'old';
}else{
$this-status = 'new';
}
}
function save_html($str) {
if ($this-find_html() == 'old')
{
// replace static page??
}else{
$fp = fopen($this-path,'w');
$sts = fwrite($fp,$str);
fclose($fp);
}
}
}

write to this file.
http://server/app/static/mdg4789gnvh095n.html
Yep. I would check for the file (or whatever mechanism you use to
store the cache) instead of the URL. You could write a class or a few
functions that could do this check for you based on the hash.
If PDF of page requested:
Send the current URL (http://server/app/static/mdg4789gnvh095n.html)
through
pdf-o-matic or similar.
You might consider creating the pdf version at the same time you
create the html. I depends on how your app works. Can you request a
pdf before you reque
Is that about right?
Yep. I think you've got it.

extension=php_pdf.dll had actived;
now i obtained a simple script from the net, and tried to test it , but it
return alot of errors!
Here is the testing script :
?php
dl(php_pdf.dll);
This is not needed because you already have load the extension in your
php.ini when used 'extension=php_pdf.dll'
$ext = 'pdf';
if(!extension_loaded($ext)){
// windowsstyle = php_gd[2].dll
// unix = gd.so
dl((strIstr(PHP_OS, 'win')) ? 'php_'.$ext.($ext == 'gd2' )? 2: ''.'.dll' :
$ext.'.so');
}
might be a solution. But keep in mind that dl() cant use when safe_mode is
on and when running a threaded webserver and mod_php under windows.

Here is the PDF script I'm testing out: ?php $pdf = pdf_new(); pdf_open_file($pdf, test.pdf); pdf_set_info($pdf, Author, Uwe Steinmann); //line 4 pdf_set_info($pdf, Title, Test for PHP wrapper of PDFlib 2.0); pdf_set_info($pdf, Creator, See Author); pdf_set_info($pdf, Subject, Testing); pdf_begin_page($pdf, 595, 842); pdf_add_outline($pdf, Page 5); $font = pdf_findfont($pdf, Times New Roman, winansi, 1); pdf_setfont($pdf, $font, 10); pdf_set_value($pdf, textrendering, 1); pdf_show_xy($pdf, Times Roman outlined, 50, 750); pdf_moveto($pdf, 50, 740); pdf_lineto($pdf, 530, 740); pdf_stroke($pdf); pdf_end_page($pdf); pdf_close($pdf); pdf_delete($pdf); echo A HREF=getitem.phpfinished/A; ? Anyone encounter such a thing and have a possible solution for this? thanks -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Re: PDF Creation
I'm trying to use PDFreportsLite in Windows.
in the /src folder, there is a rep.php example.
But when i run the rep.php script, nothing apears, only the white page and
the window done status.
In the PDFReportsLite.php, i set:
$MM_PDFReportsLite_HOSTNAME = 127.0.0.1;
$MM_PDFReportsLite_DBTYPE = mysql;
$MM_PDFReportsLite_DATABASE = pdfreportslite;
$MM_PDFReportsLite_USERNAME = root;
$MM_PDFReportsLite_PASSWORD = root;
In the Yaps.inc.php, i set:
if (!defined('YTMP_DIR')) define('YTMP_DIR',./tmp);
// Complete GhostScript filename
if (!defined('YGS_DIR')) define('YGS_DIR',./gs);
Can you help me?

Hello,
You should also look at http://www.interakt.ro/products/PDFreportsLite/
It allows you to avoid using the API and concentrate on the reports

send me a simple script that creates a PDF doc. I would like it to open

with an image placement as well that would be great. I can figure it out

Jason, I had trouble with PDFLib too, and I turned to this site for help! I found this much easier to implement and the webmaster will give you lots of help!! http://ros.co.nz/pdf/ This does not use PDFLib. Jason Morehouse [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hi all, I've got a pretty detailed PDF that I need to dynamically re-create with PHP / pdflib. Before I sit around for endless hours inputing x, y, fonts and line coordinates, is there *any* tool that can help automate this? Basically, the miracle I'm looking for would take a PDF file, and export it to PHP code that can reproduce it -- or something along that line.

[PHP] Re: PDF print page creation...
If the problem is just the web address, etc., in the bottom of the page, that can be turned off. In NN, File/Page Setup and uncheck the boxes in the header and footer In IE, File/Page Setup and remove the stuff in the header and footer fields. Lauri Vain wrote: Hello, A client requested a script to create a page to print out the list of clients that are subscribed to a chosen service. This list will be printed and then faxed to an outer source because that's how the second company that oursources the service requests it. The present script creates a HTML page with an image, text and a few tables. The problem with the HTML page is that the browser prints the web address of the script to the lower left corner of the sheet (and also things like Page 1 from 1). The PDF is meant to eliminate it all. How complex would it be to code this script to generate the PDF file. How much time would it take to make a PDF creator based on existing script that gets the data out of the database? Remember, the PDF would have to contain tables and a logo as well (image). The text has to be positioned and aligned as requested by the client. So my questions: 1. How hard would it be to create such a script? 2. How much time would it take? (any common pitfalls that could make coding time longer?) 3. What are the best classes/wrappers out there to handle the job? 4. Or would it be better to get a HTML to PDF converter (do such things exist and do they do a good job?) Thanks in advance!

I'm not 100% sure, but try adding one more header: Header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\ . $filename. \); Ville Mattila wrote: Hello world, I've made a little script which simply returns a pdf file through it (script file called dl.php in the chart-directory): ? $file_size = filesize($filepath); Header(Content-Type: application/pdf); Header(Content-Length: .$file_size); readfile($filepath); ? This script works fine when there is Acrobat Reader Browser -plug-in installed to users' box so that the PDF File appears into the IE's or Netscapes' normal window. But if and when user wants to save the pdf file (which should be allowed), some problem appear. In the case that user right-clicks the link to this script and selects Save the file as...

I suppose that same phenomenon appears when there is no Acrobat plug-in installed and browser doesn't find corresponding action for application/pdf -mime type - it begins to download file. Any suggestions how user can download the file via that script as the file will be saved as pdf-file? Thanks and cheers, - Ville .
