1. What's exactly the license of FPDF? Are there any usage restrictions?

+FPDF is Freeware (it is stated at the beginning of the source file). There is no usage +restriction. You may embed it freely in your application (commercial or not), with or +without modification. You may redistribute it, too. +

2. When I try to create a PDF, a lot of weird characters show on the screen. Why?

+These "weird" characters are in fact the actual content of your PDF. This behaviour is a bug of +IE. When it first receives an HTML page, then a PDF from the same URL, it displays it directly +without launching Acrobat. This happens frequently during the development stage: on the least +script error, an HTML page is sent, and after correction, the PDF arrives. +
+To solve the problem, simply quit and restart IE. You can also go to another URL and come +back. +
+To avoid this kind of inconvenience during the development, you can generate the PDF directly +to a file and open it through the explorer. +

3. I try to generate a PDF and IE displays a blank page. What happens?

+First of all, check that you send nothing to the browser after the PDF (not even a space or a +carriage return). You can put an exit statement just after the call to the Output() method to +be sure. +
+If it still doesn't work, it means you're a victim of the "blank page syndrome". IE used in +conjunction with the Acrobat plug-in suffers from numerous bugs, in all versions. You should +test your application with as many IE versions as possible (at least if you're on the Internet). +The problem occurs mostly with the POST method, so it is strongly advised to avoid it (all the +more that it causes other problems, see the next question). The GET works better but may fail +when the URL becomes too long: don't use a query string with more than 45 characters. However, a +tip exists to exceed this limit: end the URL with .pdf, which tricks IE. If you use a form, you +can add a hidden field at the last position: +
+
+
+ +<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="ext" VALUE=".pdf"> + +

+The usage of PHP sessions also often causes trouble (avoid using HTTP headers preventing caching). +See question 5 for a workaround. +
+
+To avoid all these problems in a reliable manner, two main techniques exist: +
+
+- Disable the plug-in and use Acrobat as a helper application. To do this, launch Acrobat; in +the File menu, Preferences, General, uncheck the option "Web Browser Integration" (for Acrobat +5: Edit, Preferences, Options, "Display PDF in Browser"). Then, the next time you load a PDF in +IE, it displays the dialog box "Open it" or "Save it to disk". Uncheck the option "Always ask +before opening this type of file" and choose Open. From now on, PDF files will open +automatically in an external Acrobat window. +
+The drawback of the method is that you need to alter the client configuration, which you can do +in an intranet environment but not for the Internet. +
+
+- Use a redirection technique. It consists in generating the PDF in a temporary file on the +server and redirect the client on it (by using JavaScript, not the Location HTTP header which +also causes trouble). For instance, at the end of the script, you can put the following: +
+
+
+ +//Determine a temporary file name in the current directory
+$file=basename(tempnam(getcwd(),'tmp'));
+//Save PDF to file
+$pdf->Output($file);
+//JavaScript redirection
+echo "<HTML><SCRIPT>document.location='getpdf.php?f=$file';</SCRIPT></HTML>"; +
+

+Then create the getpdf.php file with this: +
+
+
+ +<?php
+$f=$HTTP_GET_VARS['f'];
+//Check file (don't skip it!)
+if(substr($f,0,3)!='tmp' or strpos($f,'/') or strpos($f,'\\'))
+    die('Incorrect file name');
+if(!file_exists($f))
+    die('File does not exist');
+//Handle special IE request if needed
+if($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_USER_AGENT']=='contype')
+{
+    Header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
+    exit;
+}
+//Output PDF
+Header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
+Header('Content-Length: '.filesize($f));
+readfile($f);
+//Remove file
+unlink($f);
+exit;
+?> +
+

+This method works in most cases but IE6 can still experience trouble. The "ultimate" method +consists in redirecting directly to the temporary file. The file name must therefore end with .pdf: +
+
+
+ +//Determine a temporary file name in the current directory
+$file=basename(tempnam(getcwd(),'tmp'));
+rename($file,$file.'.pdf');
+$file.='.pdf';
+//Save PDF to file
+$pdf->Output($file);
+//JavaScript redirection
+echo "<HTML><SCRIPT>document.location='$file';</SCRIPT></HTML>"; +
+

+This method turns the dynamic PDF into a static one and avoids all troubles. But you have to do +some cleaning in order to delete the temporary files. For instance: +
+
+
+ +function CleanFiles($dir)
+{
+    //Delete temporary files
+    $t=time();
+    $h=opendir($dir);
+    while($file=readdir($h))
+    {
+        if(substr($file,0,3)=='tmp' and substr($file,-4)=='.pdf')
+        {
+            $path=$dir.'/'.$file;
+            if($t-filemtime($path)>3600)
+                @unlink($path);
+        }
+    }
+    closedir($h);
+} +
+

+This function deletes all files of the form tmp*.pdf older than an hour in the specified +directory. You may call it where you want, for instance in the script which generates the PDF. +
+
+Remark: it is necessary to open the PDF in a new window, as you can't go backwards due to the +redirection. +

4. I send parameters using the POST method and the values don't appear in the PDF.

+It's a problem affecting some versions of IE (especially the first 5.5). See the previous +question for the ways to work around it. +

5. When I use a PHP session, IE doesn't display my PDF any more but asks me to download it.

+It's a problem affecting some versions of IE. To work around it, add the following line before +session_start(): +
+
+
+ +session_cache_limiter('private'); + +

+or do a redirection as explained in question 3. +

6. When I'm on SSL, IE can't open the PDF.

+The problem may be fixed by adding this line:
+
+
+ +Header('Pragma: public'); + +

+ +

7. When I execute a script I get the message "FPDF error: Don't alter the locale before including class file".

+When the decimal separator is configured as a comma before including a file, there is a +bug in some PHP versions and decimal +numbers get truncated. Therefore you shouldn't make a call to setlocale() before including the class. +On Unix, you shouldn't set the LC_ALL environment variable neither, for it is equivalent to a +setlocale() call. +

8. I try to put a PNG and Acrobat says "There was an error processing a page. A drawing error occurred".

+Acrobat 5 has a bug and is unable to display transparent monochrome images (i.e. with 1 bit per +pixel). Remove transparency or save your image in 16 colors (4 bits per pixel) or more. +

9. I encounter the following error when I try to generate a PDF: Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at script.php:X)

+You must send nothing to the browser except the PDF itself: no HTML, no space, no carriage return, +neither before nor after. The script outputs something at line X. +

10. I try to display a variable in the Header method but nothing prints.

+You have to use the global keyword, for instance: +
+
+
+ +function Header()
+{
+    global $title;
+
+    $this->SetFont('Arial','B',15);
+    $this->Cell(0,10,$title,1,1,'C');
+} +
+

+ +

11. I defined the Header and Footer methods in my PDF class but nothing appears.

+You have to create an object from the PDF class, not FPDF:
+
+
+ +$pdf=new PDF(); + +

+ +

12. I can't make line breaks work. I put \n in the string printed by MultiCell but it doesn't work.

+You have to enclose your string with double quotes, not single ones. +

13. I try to put the euro symbol but it doesn't work.

+The standard fonts have the euro character at position 128. You can define a constant like this +for convenience: +
+
+
+ +define('EURO',chr(128)); + +

+Note: Acrobat 4 or higher is required to display euro. +

14. I draw a frame with very precise dimensions, but when printed I notice some differences.

+To respect dimensions, you have to uncheck the option "Fit to page" in the print dialog box. +

15. I'd like to use the whole surface of the page, but when printed I always have some margins. How can I get rid of them?

+All printers have physical margins (different depending on the model), it is therefore impossible +to remove them and print on the totality of the paper. +

16. What's the limit of the file sizes I can generate with FPDF?

+There is no particular limit. There are some constraints however: +
+
+- The maximum memory size allocated to PHP scripts defaults to 8MB. For very big documents, +especially with images, this limit may be reached (the file being built into memory). The +parameter is configured in the php.ini file. +
+
+- The maximum execution time allocated defaults to 30 seconds. This limit can of course be easily +reached. It is configured in php.ini and may be altered dynamically with set_time_limit(). +
+
+- Browsers generally have a 5 minute time-out. If you send the PDF directly to the browser and +reach the limit, it will be lost. It is therefore advised for very big documents to +generate them in a file, and to send some data to the browser from time to time (for instance +page 1, page 2... with flush() to force the output). When the document is finished, you can send +a redirection on it with JavaScript or create a link. +
+Remark: even when the browser goes in time-out, the script may continue to run on the server. +

17. Can I modify a PDF with FPDF?

+No. +

18. I'd like to make a search engine in PHP and index PDF files. Can I do it with FPDF?

+No. But a GPL C utility does exist, pdftotext, which is able to extract the textual content from +a PDF. It is provided with the Xpdf package:
+
+http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/ +

19. Can I convert an HTML page to PDF with FPDF?

+No. But a GPL C utility does exist, htmldoc, which allows to do it and gives good results:
+
+http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc/ +

20. Can I concatenate PDF files with FPDF?

+No. But a free C utility exists to perform this task:

+You have to create an object from the PDF class, not FPDF:
+
+
+ +$pdf=new PDF(); + +

+ +

12. I can't make line breaks work. I put \n in the string printed by MultiCell but it doesn't work.

+You have to enclose your string with double quotes, not single ones. +

13. I try to put the euro symbol but it doesn't work.

+The standard fonts have the euro character at position 128. You can define a constant like this +for convenience: +
+
+
+ +define('EURO',chr(128)); + +

+Note: Acrobat 4 or higher is required to display euro. +

14. I draw a frame with very precise dimensions, but when printed I notice some differences.

+To respect dimensions, you have to uncheck the option "Fit to page" in the print dialog box. +

15. I'd like to use the whole surface of the page, but when printed I always have some margins. How can I get rid of them?

+All printers have physical margins (different depending on the model), it is therefore impossible +to remove them and print on the totality of the paper. +

16. What's the limit of the file sizes I can generate with FPDF?

+There is no particular limit. There are some constraints however: +
+
+- The maximum memory size allocated to PHP scripts defaults to 8MB. For very big documents, +especially with images, this limit may be reached (the file being built into memory). The +parameter is configured in the php.ini file. +
+
+- The maximum execution time allocated defaults to 30 seconds. This limit can of course be easily +reached. It is configured in php.ini and may be altered dynamically with set_time_limit(). +
+
+- Browsers generally have a 5 minute time-out. If you send the PDF directly to the browser and +reach the limit, it will be lost. It is therefore advised for very big documents to +generate them in a file, and to send some data to the browser from time to time (for instance +page 1, page 2... with flush() to force the output). When the document is finished, you can send +a redirection on it with JavaScript or create a link. +
+Remark: even when the browser goes in time-out, the script may continue to run on the server. +

17. Can I modify a PDF with FPDF?

+No. +

18. I'd like to make a search engine in PHP and index PDF files. Can I do it with FPDF?

+No. But a GPL C utility does exist, pdftotext, which is able to extract the textual content from +a PDF. It is provided with the Xpdf package:
+
+http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/ +

19. Can I convert an HTML page to PDF with FPDF?

+No. But a GPL C utility does exist, htmldoc, which allows to do it and gives good results:
+
+http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc/ +

20. Can I concatenate PDF files with FPDF?

+No. But a free C utility exists to perform this task:
