Methods

__construct()

__construct(  $orientation = 'P',   $unit = 'mm',   $format = 'A4',   $unicode = true,   $encoding = 'UTF-8',   $diskcache = false,   $pdfa = false) 

This is the class constructor.

It allows to set up the page format, the orientation and the measure unit used in all the methods (except for the font sizes).

IMPORTANT: Please note that this method sets the mb_internal_encoding to ASCII, so if you are using the mbstring module functions with TCPDF you need to correctly set/unset the mb_internal_encoding when needed.

Parameters

$orientation

(string) page orientation. Possible values are (case insensitive):

  • P or Portrait (default)
  • L or Landscape
  • '' (empty string) for automatic orientation

$unit

(string) User measure unit. Possible values are:

  • pt: point
  • mm: millimeter (default)
  • cm: centimeter
  • in: inch

A point equals 1/72 of inch, that is to say about 0.35 mm (an inch being 2.54 cm). This is a very common unit in typography; font sizes are expressed in that unit.

$format

(mixed) The format used for pages. It can be either: one of the string values specified at getPageSizeFromFormat() or an array of parameters specified at setPageFormat().

$unicode

(boolean) TRUE means that the input text is unicode (default = true)

$encoding

(string) Charset encoding (used only when converting back html entities); default is UTF-8.

$diskcache

(boolean) DEPRECATED FEATURE

$pdfa

(boolean) If TRUE set the document to PDF/A mode.

__destruct()

__destruct() 

Default destructor.

setPageUnit()

setPageUnit(  $unit) 

Set the units of measure for the document.

Parameters

$unit

(string) User measure unit. Possible values are:

  • pt: point
  • mm: millimeter (default)
  • cm: centimeter
  • in: inch

A point equals 1/72 of inch, that is to say about 0.35 mm (an inch being 2.54 cm). This is a very common unit in typography; font sizes are expressed in that unit.

setPageOrientation()

(boolean) Boolean indicating if auto-page-break mode should be on or off.

$bottommargin

(float) bottom margin of the page.

setSpacesRE()

setSpacesRE(  $re = '/[^\S\xa0]/')

Non-Unicode or missing PCRE unicode support: "/[^\S\xa0]/"
Unicode and PCRE unicode support: "/(?!\xa0)[\s\p{Z}]/u"
Unicode and PCRE unicode support in Chinese mode: "/(?!\xa0)[\s\p{Z}\p{Lo}]/u"
if PCRE unicode support is turned ON ("\P" is the negate class of "\p"):
     \s     : any whitespace character
     \p{Z}  : any separator
     \p{Lo} : Unicode letter or ideograph that does not have lowercase and uppercase variants. Is used to chunk chinese words.

AddFont()

AddFont(  $family,   $style = '',   $fontfile = '',   $subset = 'default') : array

Imports a TrueType, Type1, core, or CID0 font and makes it available.

It is necessary to generate a font definition file first (read /fonts/utils/README.TXT). The definition file (and the font file itself when embedding) must be present either in the current directory or in the one indicated by K_PATH_FONTS if the constant is defined. If it could not be found, the error "Could not include font definition file" is generated.

Parameters

$family

(string) Font family. The name can be chosen arbitrarily. If it is a standard family name, it will override the corresponding font.

$style

(string) Font style. Possible values are (case insensitive):

  • empty string: regular (default)
  • B: bold
  • I: italic
  • BI or IB: bold italic

$fontfile

(string) The font definition file. By default, the name is built from the family and style, in lower case with no spaces.

$subset

(mixed) if true embedd only a subset of the font (stores only the information related to the used characters); if false embedd full font; if 'default' uses the default value set using setFontSubsetting(). This option is valid only for TrueTypeUnicode fonts. If you want to enable users to change the document, set this parameter to false. If you subset the font, the person who receives your PDF would need to have your same font in order to make changes to your PDF. The file size of the PDF would also be smaller because you are embedding only part of a font.

Returns

array —

containing the font data, or false in case of error.

SetFont()

SetFont(  $family,   $style = '',   $size = null,   $fontfile = '',   $subset = 'default',   $out = true) 

Sets the font used to print character strings.

The font can be either a standard one or a font added via the AddFont() method. Standard fonts use Windows encoding cp1252 (Western Europe). The method can be called before the first page is created and the font is retained from page to page. If you just wish to change the current font size, it is simpler to call SetFontSize(). Note: for the standard fonts, the font metric files must be accessible. There are three possibilities for this:

  • They are in the current directory (the one where the running script lies)
  • They are in one of the directories defined by the include_path parameter
  • They are in the directory defined by the K_PATH_FONTS constant

Parameters

$family

(string) Family font. It can be either a name defined by AddFont() or one of the standard Type1 families (case insensitive):

  • times (Times-Roman)
  • timesb (Times-Bold)
  • timesi (Times-Italic)
  • timesbi (Times-BoldItalic)
  • helvetica (Helvetica)
  • helveticab (Helvetica-Bold)
  • helveticai (Helvetica-Oblique)
  • helveticabi (Helvetica-BoldOblique)
  • courier (Courier)
  • courierb (Courier-Bold)
  • courieri (Courier-Oblique)
  • courierbi (Courier-BoldOblique)
  • symbol (Symbol)
  • zapfdingbats (ZapfDingbats)
It is also possible to pass an empty string. In that case, the current family is retained.

$style

(string) Font style. Possible values are (case insensitive):

  • empty string: regular
  • B: bold
  • I: italic
  • U: underline
  • D: line through
  • O: overline
or any combination. The default value is regular. Bold and italic styles do not apply to Symbol and ZapfDingbats basic fonts or other fonts when not defined.

$size

(float) Font size in points. The default value is the current size. If no size has been specified since the beginning of the document, the value taken is 12

$fontfile

(string) The font definition file. By default, the name is built from the family and style, in lower case with no spaces.

$subset

(mixed) if true embedd only a subset of the font (stores only the information related to the used characters); if false embedd full font; if 'default' uses the default value set using setFontSubsetting(). This option is valid only for TrueTypeUnicode fonts. If you want to enable users to change the document, set this parameter to false. If you subset the font, the person who receives your PDF would need to have your same font in order to make changes to your PDF. The file size of the PDF would also be smaller because you are embedding only part of a font.

This can cause a PHP time-out in some cases, especially if the document contains images or fonts.

Parameters

  • extract : Extract text and graphics (in support of accessibility to users with disabilities or for other purposes);
  • assemble : Assemble the document (insert, rotate, or delete pages and create bookmarks or thumbnail images), even if 'modify' is not set;
  • print-high : Print the document to a representation from which a faithful digital copy of the PDF content could be generated. When this is not set, printing is limited to a low-level representation of the appearance, possibly of degraded quality.
  • owner : (inverted logic - only for public-key) when set permits change of encryption and enables all other permissions.
