TCPDF Multiple Footers - php

Question

I am using TCPDF to generate PDF documents. The problem I have is that I am trying to add a different footer per page. Apparently, TCPDF provides a solution only for a single footer.
Each footer contains only basic html code without any styling.
Any ideas?

Answer 1

You can turn of the default footer like this:
$pdf->SetPrintFooter(false);
create your own one like this:
$footer = 'yau man footer stuff';
and then create your own footer function:
public function _footer($input) {
$text = $input;
$pdf->setY(-15); // or whatever location your footer should be displayed.
$pdf->Cell ( // or another method like Write(), WriteHTML() ..
$width = 0, // width of the cell, not the input
$height = 0, // height of the cell..
$x,
$y,
$text = '', // your input.
$border = 0,
$ln = 0,
$fill = false,
$reseth = true,
$align = '',
$autopadding = true
);
}
by calling $pdf->_footer($footer); you create your own footer

Answer 2

You can create custom Header and Footer by exporting TCPDF in class and you use that class anywhere!
class MYPDF extends TCPDF {
//Page header
public function Header() {
//Header code
}
// Page footer
public function Footer() {
//Footer code
//you have $this->PageNo() where you can add conditional UI
}
}
And you can use this class as
$o_pdf = new MyPDF([all params TCPDF requires]);
I hope this will help you! Happy coading!!!
