[PHP] PDFlib Page Dimensions and Word Wrap

2003-10-08 Thread Roger Spears
Hello,

I have read the http://us4.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php and am unable 
to find a solution for what I'm trying to do.  I've also tried googling 
for what I'm trying to do.  No luck there either.  I've also downloaded 
the PDFlib docs but no luck there.

When using PDFlib you specify page dimensions.  Why then, does it not 
automatically wrap words/texts/sentences to the next line?  Is there 
something I'm missing to have PDFlib automatically do this?  No matter 
the amount of text in the variable I'm trying to print in the pdf, it 
just runs off the right side of the pdf document.

Thanks,
Roger

You might want to refer to the  API documentation at:
  http://www.pdflib.com/

It seems that the pdflib documentation on the php site needs some
work :)

Tried that.  Unless I overlooked something, the PDFlib.com docs were of 
no help.

Thanks,

I don't there are any such automatic niceties in the raw PDFlib. In any case 
if you want something that's easier to use try

  google  php pdf class
