This is a working code for generating multiple pdf
<?php
$pdf = new Pdf('P', 'mm', 'A4', true, 'UTF-8', false);
$pdf->SetTitle('Invoice');
$pdf->SetHeaderMargin(10);
$pdf->SetTopMargin(10);
$pdf->setFooterMargin(10);
$pdf->SetAutoPageBreak(true);
$pdf->SetAuthor('Invoice');
$pdf->SetDisplayMode('real', 'default');
$pdf->setPrintHeader(false);
$pdf->setPrintFooter(false);
foreach($invoice as $row){
$body='HTML
XXXXXXX
XXXXXXX
XXXXXXX
foreach($invoicedata as $rowdata){
XXXXXXX
}
Table';}
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->writeHTML($body, true, false, true, false, '');
$pdf->lastPage();
//$pdf->Write(5, $tnc);
}
$pdf->Output('InvoceOutput'.'\.pdf', 'I' );
?>
What is the code generated
Multiple PDF with different data.
Current Problem
When in INVOICEID consist of INVOICEDATA (Invoice data consist of
multiple row of data but might have same InvoiceID) so that when the
pdf is generated , it generated 4 DIFFERENT PDF page with 1 row of "INVOICE
DATA" each
Example:
InvoiceID 1 consist of 4 InvoiceDataID TCPDF will generate : 4X PDF page
with 4X different InvoiceData
What i want:
When have 4 InvoiceDataID in 1 InvoiceDataID wanted it to generate 1
PDF ONLY with 4 InvoiceData

good evening ! I need your help, I am trying to generate several PDFs with the TCPDF, I have been able to create a PDF one by one by passing the ID of the database to the function, but what I need is for it to automatically create several PDFs for each ID that it brings from the database, how can I achieve this?
Controller:
public function reportpdf($id){
ob_start();
$allowance= $this->allowance_m->get_allowance_byid($id);
$this->load->library('tcpdf');
$pdf = new
TCPDF('P','mm','A4',true,'UTF-8',false);
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->setXY(12,40);
$txt_pembuka = 'Allowance Report';
//$pdf->SetFontSize(16);
$pdf->SetFont('times', 'B', 16, '', 'false');
$pdf->MultiCell(0, 5, $txt_pembuka, 0, 'C', 0, 2, '', '', true);
$pdf->setXY(20,$pdf->getY()+7);
$pdf->SetFont('times', '', 12, '', 'false');
$pdf->cell(35,5,"Nama");
$pdf->cell(0,5,": ".$allowance->tarjeta);
$pdf->setXY(20,$pdf->getY()+7);
$pdf->cell(35,5,"Periode");
$periode = strtotime($allowance->monto);
$formatperiode = date('F Y',$periode);
$pdf->cell(0,5,": ".$formatperiode);
$pdf->setXY(20,$pdf->getY()+7);
$pdf->cell(35,5,"Uang Makan");
$pdf->cell(0,5,": Rp.".$allowance->nombre);
$pdf->Output();
ob_end_flush();
}
Model:
public function get_allowance_byid($id)
{
$db6 = $this->load->database('db6', TRUE);
$sql = "SELECT * FROM registros WHERE tarjeta='".$id."'";
return $db6->query($sql)->row();
}
If you want to create "several PDFs for each ID" it is recommended to first save the created PDF files in a local folder on your server before making them available to your user instead of prompting the created PDF directly in the browser as in your example. It is not practical to send multiple PDFs at once to the browser.
Add a path and a filename to the Output Method to save the PDF, preferably with an ID so you can find it again:
$pdf->Output('allowance_report_'.$id.'.pdf');
Documentation: https://tcpdf.org/docs/srcdoc/TCPDF/classes-TCPDF/#method_Output
In your case, you can either create multiple PDFs inside the method reportpdf() or make a new method for each file.
If you choose to do it inside your current method you can do something like:
public function reportpdf($id){
$allowance= $this->allowance_m->get_allowance_byid($id);
$this->load->library('tcpdf');
//CREATE YOUR FIRST PDF....
$pdf = new
TCPDF('P','mm','A4',true,'UTF-8',false);
$pdf->AddPage();
... ETC ...
// SAVE THE FIRST PDF BY PROVIDING A PATH AND A FILENAME
$pdf->Output('folder/allowance_report_'.$id.'.pdf');
//CREATE YOUR SECOND PDF....
$pdf = new
TCPDF('P','mm','A4',true,'UTF-8',false);
$pdf->AddPage();
... ETC ...
// SAVE THE SECOND PDF BY PROVIDING A PATH AND A FILENAME
$pdf->Output('folder/another_report_'.$id.'.pdf');
}
If you then want to send the PDFs to the browser I suggest you create a zip file containing all the created PDFs and prompt it through the browser.
i use to print pdf a paper smaller than A4 , i need to customize the paper size in my pdf code , how can i do it ?
$pdf = new TCPDF('L', 'mm', array(210,250), true, 'UTF-8', false);
I am using TCDPF to generate barcode in invoice. Thus, when I download invoice by clicking "View Invoice" from Orders page, it should download with a barcode generated. At the moment, I am just testing a random number.
In HTMLTemplateInvoice.php, I added the following codes:
// Random number for testing
$barcodeobj = new TCPDFBarcode('1234567890123', 'C39');
// Assign to template
// All other unnecessary variables not displayed
'barcode' => base64_encode($barcodeobj->getBarcodePNG(1, 30, array(255,255,255))),
);
For testing purpose, I added the following codes in invoice.addresses.tab.tpl
<img src="data:image/png;base64,{$barcode}>">
The barcode is displayed. Unfortunately, it is dislaying as a page and it is not generated in the invoice. The invoice will not download too.
I am using Prestashop 1.7.4.2 and upgraded to PHP 7.2.
I've tried this code
$barcodeobj = new TCPDFBarcode("123456789123", 'C39');
$Barcode = $barcodeobj->getBarcodePngData(2, 40, array(0,0,0));
and then i created a new pdf :
$Barcode_pdf = new TCPDF('P', 'mm', 'A5', true, 'UTF-8', false);
$Barcode_pdf->SetMargins(7, 10.4, 8);
$Barcode_pdf->setImageScale(0.5);
$Barcode_pdf->AddPage();
$Barcode_pdf->Image('#'.$Barcode,'10','20','60' );
$Barcode_pdf->Output('Barcode.pdf', 'I')
you can attach it to email if you want but change the output type to 'S':
$Barcode_attachment = array();
$Barcode_attachment['content'] = $Barcode_pdf->Output('Barcode.pdf', 'S');
$Barcode_attachment['name'] = 'Barcode.pdf'; // getting pdf file name
$Barcode_attachment['invoice']['mime'] = 'application/pdf';
$Barcode_attachment['mime'] = 'application/pdf';
and then just add $Barcode_attachment to your email .
I have blank id card's with following size:
For Europe printing is 85mmx55mm. So i made a background image using Google power point as mm to pixel:
But when i put it in the TCPDF then the image is not fitted exactly on the 85mmx55mm:
My code for TCPDF was as following:
$pdf = new TCPDF('L', 'mm', array(55,85));
$pdf->setPrintHeader(false);
$pdf->setPrintFooter(false);
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->SetAutoPageBreak(FALSE, 1);
// image in pixel: 319 × 207
$pdf->Image('background_image.jpg', 0, 0);
What am i doing wrong? Why the background_image.jpg is larger then array(55,85)?
I am using TCPDF library to write a custom size label with background image and multiple text blocks on it.
The user when sees the preview on screen of the PDF it should show in horizontal, but for printing, I need the full page rotated -90 degrees.
How can I just rotate the whole page for printing version without having to move anything?
Basically:
In my case I've already had to use a new document format for the special sizes my document required.
So I've duplicated that format, created one for Landscape and one for Portrait.
Then based on the $preview variable, if previewing I'm rendering the normal landscape document, but if not previewing, I'm using the Portrait format and orientation and also starting the transformation and rotating everything on page.
Hope this helps someone I've found no other "quick" way to accomplish this kind of full-page rotation.
<?php
// #1 get the preview attribute from
// the form that was submitted from the user
$preview= isset($_POST['preview'])?(int)$_POST['preview']:0;
// load TCPDF for CodeIgniter as a library
$this->load->library('Pdf');
// #2 set default orientation and format
$orientation='L';
$format='MAKE-L';
// #3 if not previewing, switch orientation and format to portrait
if (!$preview) {
$orientation='P';
$format='MAKE-P';
}
// create new pdf object
// (same as doing new TCPDF(), it is just the CodeIgniter wrapper)
$pdf = new Pdf($orientation, 'mm', $format, true, 'UTF-8', false);
// remove default header/footer
$pdf->setPrintHeader(false);
$pdf->setPrintFooter(false);
$pdf->SetMargins(0, 0, 0);
$pdf->AddPage($orientation, $format);
// #4 if not previewing, start transformation
// and rotate everything before inserting any content
if (!$preview) {
// Start Transformation
$pdf->StartTransform();
// Rotate counter-clockwise centered by (x,y)
$pdf->Rotate(-90, 70, 70); // <-- TODO: test this very well because 70 and 70 was just guessing, there is no math behind that so not sure if it will work always
}
// put your content here,
// for example set font and add a text
$pdf->SetFont('times', '', 7, '', true);
$pdf->writeHTMLCell(0, 0, 25.4, 2, 'lot number', 0, 1, 0, true, '', true);
/// end content
// #5 if not in preview mode, finish the transformation
if (!$preview) {
// Stop Transformation
$pdf->StopTransform();
}
$pdf->Output('example.pdf', 'I');
/**
* Last but very important note:
* I have added my formats in tcpdf/includes/tcpdf_static.php file.
* >> MAKE-L for Landscape
* >> MAKE-P for Portrait
*/
public static $page_formats = array(
// Make
'MAKE-L' => array( 396.850, 425.196), // = ( h 140 x w 150 ) mm
// Make
'MAKE-P' => array( 425.196, 396.850 ), // = ( h 140 x w 150 ) mm
// .. rest of formats here ../
);
The setPageFormat() method should do the job. You also can pass the parameter to the $format parameter of AddPage():
$pdf->AddPage($orientation, ['format' => $format, 'Rotate' => -90]);
