html font size not working as expected with mpdf - php

$pdf_html variable are holding html content to add on each pdf pages. The problem is the inline font size not working. If i change it to any large font size number nothing working rather taking a default font size always. please check the below codes.
Is there anything wrong on my html deceleration? any suggestion?
Note: I have to write each html tag as absolute position which is defined on stylesheet but not inline.
$defaultConfig = (new \Mpdf\Config\ConfigVariables())->getDefaults();
$defaultFontConfig = (new \Mpdf\Config\FontVariables())->getDefaults();
$storage_path = storage_path();
$stylesheet = file_get_contents($storage_path.'/fonts/style_pdf_custom.css');
$mpdf = new \Mpdf\Mpdf([
'dpi' => 144,
'tempDir' => $storage_path . '/app/public/documents/completed/pages',
'fontDir' => array_merge($defaultConfig['fontDir'], [
$storage_path . '/fonts'
]),
'fontdata' => $defaultFontConfig['fontdata'] + [
'greatvibes' => [
'R' => 'GreatVibes-Regular.ttf',
],
'montezregular' => [
'R' => 'Montez-Regular.ttf',
],
'sacramentoregular' => [
'R' => 'Sacramento-Regular.ttf',
]]
]);
$mpdf->WriteHTML($stylesheet,1);
foreach($available_documents as $key => $doc){
$pages = $this->appRepo->getDocumentPages($doc->id, $doc->envelope_id);
$sourceFilename = $doc->filename_system_generated;
$mpdf->SetSourceFile($storage_path . "/app/public/documents/" . $sourceFilename);
foreach($pages as $k => $page){
$elements = json_decode($page->elements);
$mpdf->AddPage();
$importedPage = $mpdf->importPage($page->page_no);
$mpdf->useTemplate($importedPage, ['adjustPageSize' => true]);
$pdf_html = '<div class="common-block" style="width:203px; left:158px;top:243px;height:28px;justify-content: left;color:black;font-size:22px;font-weight: bold; "> Mr. Admin</div><div class="common-block" style="width:247px; left:739px;top:365px;height:40px;justify-content: left;color:black;font-size:24px; ">Checking Font Size</div>';
$mpdf->WriteHTML($pdf_html, \Mpdf\HTMLParserMode::HTML_BODY);
}
}
$tempname = time().$filename;
$mpdf->Output($storage_path. "/app/public/documents/temp/" . $tempname, "F");

After doing research last couple of days i can figure out the problem why the font size not working properly inside a div with absolute position.
When your html content have absolute position and you have set a fixed height, width then what ever font-size you set it will not exceed the div and mpdf auto adjust the font-size but while on relative position any font-size always works as it define.
So finally i have adjust the div width and height then i found the actual font-size changes are working well on a div with position:absolute

Google Unicode Fonts not rendered properly in mpdf for PHP

I'm trying to use Baloo2 Google Font in mpdf to render Hindi Language.
I'm using the Latest Version.
The PDF is being Rendered but the complex scripts are not being rendered properly.
I'm trying to render the following,
चातुर्यकला त्रिवेदी But it is rendered asचातुर् यकला त् रविदी
Although when inspected in browser, the rendering is proper in inspect source code. but not displayed properly in the PDF.
The Code in my file is
$html = ' आवेदक का नाम : चातुर्यकला त्रिवेदी';
$filename = 'demofile' . time() . '.pdf';
$mpdf = new \Mpdf\Mpdf([
'mode' => 'utf-8',
'default_font' => 'baloo',
]);
$mpdf->debug = true;
$mpdf->WriteHTML("p, td {font-family: baloo; color: transparent; white-space: pre; cursor: text; transform-origin: 0% 0%;}", 1);
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html);
$mpdf->Output($filename, 'D');
I've also copied the fonts in the ttfonts directory and also made changes to the fontVariables.php files as follows
'fontdata' => [
"baloo" => [
'R' => "BalooRegular.ttf",
'useOTL' => 0xFF,
'useKashida' => 75,

$this->response->withType('application/pdf');
}
inside my template the configuration is this way, also apply the function mb_internal_encoding ('UTF-8'); to reset the enconding but still the error continues
$pdf = new TCPDF('L',PDF_UNIT,PDF_PAGE_FORMAT,TRUE,'UTF-8',FALSE);
$pdf->SetCreator(PDF_CREATOR);

// build my pdf
// finalization of my pdf
mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8');
$pdf->Output('Diplomas-DO.pdf', 'D');
header('Content-Type: application/pdf; charset=utf-8');
please help I go several days with the problem thanks.
I recently made a pdf with TCPDF and had the same problem. It looks like you're building your PDF with the TCPDF engine directly.
This error happens when CakePHP throws an error before the PDF output can begin... for example, it could be a "Trying to get a property of a non-object in...." error or something like that. You should be able to see the specific error message info below the htmlspecialchars() warnings.
I suggest checking to make sure your pdf is working correctly first... instead of your //build my pdf code, make a simple line like
$pdf->setXY(13, 13);
$pdf->Write(5, 'Test Hello');
If that works, then your configuration is working and the error is likely in your variables somewhere, so start building your pdf piece by piece, testing as you go.
I'll also add that I also chose to use the TCPDF engine directly, so I didn't use the CakePDF plugin (which works great but didn't meet my needs for this particular problem). I can provide more info on this if needed.
EDIT:
I'll provide some info on how I used TCPDF directly in my project without CakePDF in case you or anyone finds it helpful.
First, I wanted to use TCPDF engine directly for a few reasons:
Precise control of headers and footers
Able to use the text scaling, FIT CELL functions of TCPDF
more precise absolute positioning of elements
avoid CSS.
So I installed TCPDF directly with composer
composer require tecnickcom/tcpdf
Added this to app/vendor/cakephp-plugins.php
'Tecnickcom/Tcpdf' => $baseDir . '/vendor/tecnickcom/tcpdf/'
Then in app/config/bootstrap.php
Plugin::load('Tecnickcom/Tcpdf', ['bootstrap' => true]);
Then in app/config/routes.php
Router::extensions(['pdf']);
Then in app/src/controller/mycontroller.php, I created the method outputpdf. In that method, I set all the data collections to be used in the pdf, then
$this->viewBuilder()->template('mypdf');
Then in app/src/template/mycontroller/pdf/ i created the mypdf.php. This file contains only this code:
header("Content-type:application/pdf");
$this->layout = 'mypdf';
Then in app/src/template/layout/pdf/ I created the file mypdf.php. In this file I built my PDF with the data from the controller.
header("Content-type:application/pdf");
// Extend the TCPDF class to create custom Header and Footer
class MYPDF extends TCPDF {
//And build the header and footer in here
}
$pdf = new MYPDF(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, true, 'UTF-8', false);
//And make all the body content here
$pdf->Output('mypdf.pdf', 'I');
One downside with this approach is with foreign language fonts, you need to add and use the fonts you need in the app/vendor/tecnickcom/tcpdf/fonts folder, and those are all that are available for your pdf.
Please feel free to critique or advise on improvements to this approach.
I found the error is with the images that I use inside the pdf, one of them I use as the background of the pdf and another one is like a small image.
$pdf = new TCPDF('L',PDF_UNIT,PDF_PAGE_FORMAT,TRUE,'UTF-8',FALSE);
$pdf->SetCreator(PDF_CREATOR);
$pdf->setPrintHeader(false);
$pdf->setPrintFooter(false);
$pdf->SetAutoPageBreak(TRUE, PDF_MARGIN_BOTTOM);

$pdf->writeHTMLCell(300,0,0,155,'<div style="text-align:center">'.$html_logo_bussines.'<div>',0,0,0,true,'C',true);
$pdf->lastPage();
}
the error continues, the error stops showing when I comment the line where the
$pdf->writeHTMLCell(300,0,0,155,'<div style="text-align:center">'.$html_logo_bussines.'<div>',0,0,0,true,'C',true);
I do not know what I'm doing wrong I read the documentation and this function if you accept the img tag.
Can you debug your $imglogo variable to see if the file path is correct?
Or, try displaying the image with the $pdf->Image() function?
Note that TCPDF has a configuration option in vendor\tecnickcom\tcpdf\config\tcpdf_config.php:
define ('K_PATH_IMAGES', 'C:\\windowsfolder\\htdocs\\app\\webroot\\img\\');
So you can call the image in the PDF via:
$image_file = K_PATH_IMAGES.'imagefile.jpg';
See if that works...

TCPDF - custom page size is outputting wrong size/cropped pdf

Hiyas,
I'm trying to print to an older duplex printer, and paper size is about letter-size wide, but only a half letter-size tall, so I'm trying to define a custom page output like so. I've tried many things, but this is where I'm at right now, probably not all necessary, but nothing seems to be working.
$width = '300';
$height = '150';
$pageLayout = array($width, $height); // or array($height, $width)
$pdf = new TCPDF('P', 'mm', $pageLayout, true, 'UTF-8', false);
// set array for viewer preferences
$preferences = array(
'FitWindow' => false,
'NonFullScreenPageMode' => 'UseNone', // UseNone, UseOutlines, UseThumbs, UseOC
'ViewArea' => 'MediaBox', // CropBox, BleedBox, TrimBox, ArtBox
'ViewClip' => 'MediaBox', // CropBox, BleedBox, TrimBox, ArtBox
'PrintArea' => 'MediaBox', // CropBox, BleedBox, TrimBox, ArtBox
'PrintClip' => 'MediaBox', // CropBox, BleedBox, TrimBox, ArtBox
'PrintScaling' => 'AppDefault', // None, AppDefault
'Duplex' => 'DuplexFlipLongEdge', // Simplex, DuplexFlipShortEdge, DuplexFlipLongEdge
'PickTrayByPDFSize' => false
);
$pdf->setViewerPreferences($preferences);
$pdf->AddPage('P', $pageLayout, false, false);
But the output of this is:
Anytime I try to change the height, it seems to affect the width. If I change the width, it still affects the width, and other sizes just don't come out as you would expect.
Anyone have a suggestion, or know if I'm doing something wrong?

I want to set header and footer in PDF using mpdf

I have generated a PDF using mpdf library in CodeIgniter. I want to attach header image and footer image with proper margin, I have created one code but header and footer get overlapped.
//controller
$this->load->library('m_pdf');
$param = '"","A4","","",0,0,100,0,6,3,"L"';
$pdf = $this->m_pdf->load($param);
// $pdf->useOddEven = true;
$pdf->SetHTMLHeader('<img src="' . base_url() . 'custom/Hederinvoice.jpg"/>');
$pdf->SetHTMLFooter('<img src="' . base_url() . 'custom/footarinvoice.jpg"/>');
$wm = base_url() . 'custom/Watermark.jpg';
$pdf->SetWatermarkImage($wm);
$pdf->showWatermarkImage = true;
$data['main_content'] = 'dwnld';
$this->load->view('template', $data);
$html = $this->load->view('template_pdf', $data, true);
$this->load->view('template_pdf', $data, true);
$pdf->WriteHTML($html);
$pdf->page = 0;
$pdf->state = 0;
$pdf->Output($pdfFilePath, "D");
$pdf->SetHTMLHeader('<img src="' . base_url() . 'custom/Hederinvoice.jpg"/>');
$pdf->SetHTMLFooter('<img src="' . base_url() . 'custom/footarinvoice.jpg"/>');
$wm = base_url() . 'custom/Watermark.png';
$data['main_content'] = 'dwnld';
//$this->load->view('template', $data);
$html = $this->load->view('template_pdf', $data, true);
$this->load->view('template_pdf', $data, true);
$pdf->AddPage('', // L - landscape, P - portrait
'', '', '', '',
5, // margin_left
5, // margin right
60, // margin top
30, // margin bottom
0, // margin header
0); // margin footer
$pdf->WriteHTML($html);
$pdf->Output($pdfFilePath, "D");
Addpage for to creating page in mpdf and pass parameters of margin top,bottom then we get proper output
You can set custom HTMl Header for first page and Other page as below:
Just add the below snippet above all html content. You can add Inline CSS for it using tags above al html
<htmlpageheader name="firstpage" style="display:none">
<div style="text-align:center"><img src="'.'logo.png"/></div>
</htmlpageheader><sethtmlpageheader name="firstpage" value="on" show-this-page="1" />
<htmlpageheader name="otherpages" style="display:none">
<div style="text-align:center">{PAGENO}</div>
</htmlpageheader><sethtmlpageheader name="otherpages" value="off" />';
Or can use https://mpdf.github.io/headers-footers/headers-footers.html as refrence to use HTML header function
To Set footer one can use:
// Footer Configuration for all pages, can be changed for odd and even pages accordingly
$oddEvenConfiguration =
[
'L' => [ // L for Left part of the header
'content' => 'Your Content',
'font-size' => 10,
'font-family' => 'sans-serif',
'color'=>'#000000'
],
'C' => [ // C for Center part of the header
'content' => '',
],
'R' => [
'content' => '{PAGENO}',
],
'line' => 0, // That's the relevant parameter to remove line style in footer
];
$headerFooterConfiguration = [
'odd' => $oddEvenConfiguration,
'even' => $oddEvenConfiguration
];

Yii HTML2PDF (ePdf) Impossible de charger l'image /images/big-logo.png

Im using Yii framework, and Im using EYiiPdf extension.
I have to view an image in Pdf output file but I got this Error:
ERREUR n°6 : Impossible de charger l'image /images/big-logo.png
in
/protected/vendor/html2pdf/html2pdf.class.php(1319)
this is mu code :
in controller:
$html2pdf = Yii::app()->ePdf->HTML2PDF();
$html2pdf->WriteHTML($this->renderPartial('index', true));
$html2pdf->Output();
and this the image tag in view
<img src="/images/big-logo.png" alt="logo" style="width: 190px; height: 70px">
the image folder and image exist.
this is my folder structure
images
js
css
protected
--->controoler
--->views
--------->pdf
------------->index.php
and the same image tag with same image path working in any other view file but if use the HTML2PDF it return that error
Thank
I solved my problem by:
in html2pdf.class.php file at line 5602. by adding the server Document Root to image source.
protected function _tag_open_IMG($param)
{
$src = str_replace('&', '&', $param['src']);
$documentRoot = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']; // get server document root
$src = $documentRoot. '/' . $src; //aapend server document root to the image soure
$this->parsingCss->save();
$this->parsingCss->value['width'] = 0;
$this->parsingCss->value['height'] = 0;
$this->parsingCss->value['border'] = array('type' => 'none', 'width' => 0, 'color' => array(0, 0, 0));
$this->parsingCss->value['background'] = array('color' => null, 'image' => null, 'position' => null, 'repeat' => null);
$this->parsingCss->analyse('img', $param);
$this->parsingCss->setPosition();
$this->parsingCss->fontSet();
$res = $this->_drawImage($src, isset($param['sub_li']));
if (!$res) return $res;
$this->parsingCss->load();
$this->parsingCss->fontSet();
$this->_maxE++;
return true;
}
In this case html2pdf.class.php just take the image path instead of url, actually you dont need to change the library code, just need...
<img src="<?=Yii::getPathOfAlias('webroot').'/images/big-logo.png'?>">
for background image...
<div style="background-image: url(<?=Yii::getPathOfAlias('webroot').'/images/big-logo.png'?>)">
...
</div>
