CXXI. PDF 函数

简介

The PDF functions in PHP can create PDF files using the PDFlib library which was initially created by Thomas Merz and is now maintained by » PDFlib GmbH.

The documentation in this section is only meant to be an overview of the available functions in the PDFlib library and should not be considered an exhaustive reference. For the full and detailed explanation of each function, consult the PDFlib Reference Manual which is included in all PDFlib packages distributed by PDFlib GmbH. It provides a very good overview of what PDFlib is capable of doing and contains the most up-to-date documentation of all functions.

For a jump start we urge you to take a look at the programming samples which are contained in all PDFlib distribution packages. These samples demonstrate basic text, vector, and graphics output as well as higher-level functions, such as the PDF import facility (PDI).

All of the functions in PDFlib and the PHP module have identical function names and parameters. Unless configured otherwise, all lengths and coordinates are measured in PostScript points. There are generally 72 PostScript points to an inch, but this depends on the output resolution. Please see the PDFlib Reference Manual included in the PDFlib distribution for a more thorough explanation of the coordinate system used.

With version 6, PDFlib offers an object-oriented API for PHP 5 in addition to the function-oriented API for PHP 4. The main difference is the following:

In PHP 4, first a PDF resource has to be retrieved with a function call like

$p = PDF_new().

This PDF resource is used as the first parameter in all further function calls, such as in

PDF_begin_document($p, "", "").

In PHP 5 however, a PDFlib object is created with

$p = new PDFlib().

This object offers all PDFlib API functions as methods, e.g. as with

$p->begin_document("", "").

In addition, exceptions have been introduced in PHP 5 which are supported by PDFlib 6 and later as well.

Please see the examples below for more information.

注意: If you're interested in alternative free PDF generators that do not utilize external PDF libraries, see this related FAQ.

需求

PDFlib Lite is available as open source. However, the PDFlib Lite license allows free use only under certain conditions. PDFlib Lite supports a subset of PDFlib's functionality; please see the PDFlib web site for details. The full version of PDFlib is available for download at » http://www.pdflib.com/products/pdflib-family/, but requires that you purchase a license for commercial use.

Issues with older versions of PDFlib

Any version of PHP 4 after March 9, 2000 does not support versions of PDFlib older than 3.0.

PDFlib 4.0 or greater is supported by PHP 4.3.0 and later.

安装

本 » PECL 扩展未绑定于 PHP 中。安装此 PECL 扩展库的信息可在手册中标题为 PECL 扩展库安装的一章中找到。更多信息如新版本，下载，源文件，维护者信息以及更新日志等可以在这里找到： » http://pecl.php.net/package/pdflib.

To get these functions to work in PHP < 4.3.9, you have to compile PHP with --with-pdflib[=DIR]. DIR is the PDFlib base install directory, defaults to /usr/local.

资源类型

PDF_new() creates a new PDFlib object required by most PDF functions.

Remarks about Deprecated PDFlib Functions

Starting with PHP 4.0.5, the PHP extension for PDFlib is officially supported by PDFlib GmbH. This means that all the functions described in the PDFlib Reference Manual are supported by PHP 4 with exactly the same meaning and the same parameters. However, with PDFlib Version 5.0.4 or higher all parameters have to be specified. For compatibility reasons, this binding for PDFlib still supports most of the deprecated functions, but they should be replaced by their new versions. PDFlib GmbH will not support any problems arising from the use of these deprecated functions. The documentation in this section indicates old functions as "Deprecated" and gives the replacement function to be used instead.

范例

Most of the functions are fairly easy to use. The most difficult part is probably creating your first PDF document. The following example should help to get you started. It is developed for PHP 4 and creates the file hello.pdf with one page. It defines some document info field contents, loads the Helvetica-Bold font and outputs the text "Hello world! (says PHP)".

例1625.Hello World example from PDFlib distribution for PHP 4


<?php

$p = PDF_new();



/* open new PDF file; insert a file name to create the PDF on disk */

if (PDF_begin_document($p, "", "") == 0) {

  die("Error: " . PDF_get_errmsg($p));

}



PDF_set_info($p, "Creator", "hello.php");

PDF_set_info($p, "Author", "Rainer Schaaf");

PDF_set_info($p, "Title", "Hello world (PHP)!");



PDF_begin_page_ext($p, 595, 842, "");



$font = PDF_load_font($p, "Helvetica-Bold", "winansi", "");



PDF_setfont($p, $font, 24.0);

PDF_set_text_pos($p, 50, 700);

PDF_show($p, "Hello world!");

PDF_continue_text($p, "(says PHP)");

PDF_end_page_ext($p, "");



PDF_end_document($p, "");



$buf = PDF_get_buffer($p);

$len = strlen($buf);



header("Content-type: application/pdf");

header("Content-Length: $len");

header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=hello.pdf");

print $buf;



PDF_delete($p);

?>

The following example comes with the PDFlib distribution for PHP 5. It uses the new exception handling and object encapsulation features available in PHP 5. It creates the file hello.pdf with one page. It defines some document info field contents, loads the Helvetica-Bold font and outputs the text "Hello world! (says PHP)".

例1626.Hello World example from PDFlib distribution for PHP 5


<?php



try {

  $p = new PDFlib();



  /* open new PDF file; insert a file name to create the PDF on disk */

  if ($p->begin_document("", "") == 0) {

    die("Error: " . $p->get_errmsg());

  }



  $p->set_info("Creator", "hello.php");

  $p->set_info("Author", "Rainer Schaaf");

  $p->set_info("Title", "Hello world (PHP)!");



  $p->begin_page_ext(595, 842, "");



  $font = $p->load_font("Helvetica-Bold", "winansi", "");



  $p->setfont($font, 24.0);

  $p->set_text_pos(50, 700);

  $p->show("Hello world!");

  $p->continue_text("(says PHP)");

  $p->end_page_ext("");



  $p->end_document("");



  $buf = $p->get_buffer();

  $len = strlen($buf);



  header("Content-type: application/pdf");

  header("Content-Length: $len");

  header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=hello.pdf");

  print $buf;

}

catch (PDFlibException $e) {

  die("PDFlib exception occurred in hello sample:\n" .

  "[" . $e->get_errnum() . "] " . $e->get_apiname() . ": " .

  $e->get_errmsg() . "\n");

}

catch (Exception $e) {

  die($e);

}

$p = 0;
