FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package simplepdf
SimplePdf
Internal PDF geometry (and therefore ZendPdf as well) uses "points" (1/72 of an inch), with [0, 0] being the bottom left corner of a page. This library, which extends ZendPdf, changes this by using arbitrary units (e.g. inches or centimeters) and going from top-to-bottom, which makes much more sense from a user's persepective. Also, very basic functionality has been added, like text alignment, margins and word wrap.
SimplePdf is PSR-0, PSR-1 and PSR-2 compliant.
Semantic Versioning is used for releases / tags.
Requirements
- PHP 5.3 or newer
- ZendPdf component, which it extends
Installation
The easiest way to install is using Composer / Packagist by adding this to you composer.json file:
Alternatively, you could manually include/autoload the appriate files from the classes/ dir.
Documentation
See the examples/ dir for usage examples. Also, check out the API documentation, generated using ApiGen.
Known Limitations
- The extension is not complete at all; only specific methods (to accommodate my needs) have been overridden to handle custom units + top-to-bottom geometry
- The word-wrap code is still pretty basic; for example, it doesn't do word-breaking or handle certain border cases
- Unfortunately, ZendPdf was kicked out of ZF2, and doesn't seem to be maintained (although it still works fine)
