PDF_findfont

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.5, PECL pdflib >= 1.0.0)

PDF_findfontPrepare font for later use [deprecated]

Description

int PDF_findfont ( resource $p , string $fontname , string $encoding , int $embed )

Search for a font and prepare it for later use with PDF_setfont(). The metrics will be loaded, and if embed is nonzero, the font file will be checked, but not yet used. encoding is one of builtin, macroman, winansi, host, a user-defined encoding name or the name of a CMap. Parameter embed is optional before PHP 4.3.5 or with PDFlib less than 5.

This function is deprecated since PDFlib version 5, use PDF_load_font() instead.

For using pdf_findfont with pdf_setfont it's a good idea to copy your fonts to a separate directory, i.e. /usr/local/fonts. You should also copy the upr file which comes with PDFlib to this directory. The example code above did not work here until I put a

pdf_set_parameter($pdf, "resourcefile", "/usr/local/fonts/pdflib.upr");

before the line with pdf_findfont().

Try this:

<?php

//Create & Open PDF-Object
$pdf pdf_new();
pdf_open_file($pdf);
pdf_set_info($pdf"Author","Bob Nijman");
pdf_begin_page($pdf300300);

$font pdf_findfont($pdf"Times New Roman""host"1);
if (
$font) {
   
pdf_setfont($pdf$font30);
}

$string "Hello Berlin-Mitte!";

$width pdf_stringwidth($pdf$string);
pdf_set_text_pos($pdf, (300-$width)/2200);
pdf_show($pdf$string);


//close it up
pdf_end_page($pdf);
pdf_close($pdf);
$data pdf_get_buffer($pdf);
header('Content-type: application/pdf');
header('Content-disposition: inline; filename=myTest.pdf');
header('Content-length: ' strlen($data));
echo 
$data;

?>

A note on fonts...

 Everyone should take a look at the PDFlib manual, section 3.3.5 on TrueType fonts and such. In order to not have to embed fonts and have the font metrics file available use one of the 14 internal PDFlib fonts (case sensitive) : 

Courier, Courier-Bold, Courier-Oblique, Courier-BoldOblique,
Helvetica, Helvetica-Bold, Helvetica-Oblique, Helvetica-BoldOblique,
Times-Roman, Times-Bold, Times-Italic, Times-BoldItalic,
Symbol, ZapfDingbats

Note that "Times New Roman" isn't in there (Times-Roman is, however). All is explained in the PDFlib manual so if you're having trouble with the above example, please check it out.

try this nice *nix shell code to generate the FontAFM section of your UPR files:

   for i in *.afm
   do
           sep=`echo -e "\r"`
           file=`cat $i | grep FontName | cut -b 10-`
           file=${file//$sep/}
           echo "$file=$i" 
   done

it gererates something like this:

   Courier-Oblique=Courier-Oblique.afm
   Courier=Courier.afm
   Helvetica-Bold=Helvetica-Bold.afm
   etc.

probably usefull if you add fonts now and then...
dont be shy to mail me if you find this usefull!

If you get the following error, 

"PDFlib error: [2518] PDF_findfont: No file specified with outline data for font ..."

you might try the following:

1. Take care the environment variable PDFLIBRESOURCE is correctly set. 
   
   You can set it like this: putenv("PDFLIBRESOURCE=C:\phpdev\php\pdf-related\pdflib.upr");
   
2. Take care the resource variabele used by PDFLib is correctly set.

   You can set it like this: pdf_set_parameter($pdf, "resourcefile", "C:\phpdev\php\pdf-related\pdflib.upr");
   
3. Take care the resource file and fonts can be found by adjusting your local include path.

   You can set it like this: ini_set('include_path', 'C:/phpdev/php/pdf-related');
   
4. Take care the paths in the PDFLIB resource file are correct

   Open pdflib.upr in a text editor and modify the path entry (read the comments):
   
   Example: /C:/phpdev/php/pdf-related
   
5. Leave the optional parameter 'embed' out:

   Like this:

   if ($font = pdf_findfont($pdf, "Helvetica", "host", 0))
     pdf_setfont($pdf, $font, 12);
     
   Or this:
   
   if ($font = pdf_findfont($pdf, "Helvetica", "host"))
     pdf_setfont($pdf, $font, 12);

I hope this could be of help to you...
