TCPDI

PDF importer for TCPDF, based on FPDI. Requires pauln/tcpdi_parser and fdpf_tpl.

Installation

Add tcpdi.php to the directory containing TCPDF, along with pauln/tcpdi_parser and fdpf_tpl.

Note that only the standalone version of fpdf_tpl is supported (v1.2.3); the version bundled with FPDI 1.5 is not currently compatible.

Usage

Usage is essentially the same as FPDI, except importing TCPDI rather than FPDI. It also has a "setSourceData()" function which accepts raw PDF data, for cases where the file does not reside on disk or is not readable by TCPDI.

// Include the main TCPDF library and TCPDI.
require_once('lib/tcpdf/tcpdf.php');
require_once('lib/tcpdf/tcpdi.php');

// Create new PDF document.
$pdf = new TCPDI(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, true, 'UTF-8', false);

// Add a page from a PDF by file path.
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->setSourceFile('/path/to/file-to-import.pdf');
$idx = $pdf->importPage(1);
$pdf->useTemplate($idx);

$pdfdata = file_get_contents('/path/to/other-file.pdf'); // Simulate only having raw data available.
$pagecount = $pdf->setSourceData($pdfdata); 
for ($i = 1; $i <= $pagecount; $i++) { 
    $tplidx = $pdf->importPage($i);
    $pdf->AddPage();
    $pdf->useTemplate($tplidx); 
}
