 PDF API Client
================

[](#pdf-api-client)

 Working with PDF files in PHP can be a significant challenge. It requires not only the integration of multiple technologies but also the ability to configure the server. To address this, we have developed our own PDF server that handles the most critical operations seamlessly.

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

Install with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org)

```
composer require owly-digital/pdf-api-client
```

Retrieve Token
--------------

[](#retrieve-token)

You can retrieve token by contacting us at

Initialization
--------------

[](#initialization)

```
use Owly\PdfApiClient\PdfApiClient;

$client = new PdfApiClient('token');
```

Endpoints
---------

[](#endpoints)

List of available endpoints will change over time. You can also suggest new features by [creating issue](https://github.com/owly-digital/pdf-api-client/issues).

### Merge

[](#merge)

```
$pdfFiles = [
  'path/to/1.pdf',
  'path/to/2.pdf',
];

$mergedPdfFile = $client->mergePdfFiles($pdfFiles);

file_put_contents('merged.pdf', $mergedPdfFile);
```

### Convert

[](#convert)

Convert PDF files (also with multiple pages) into various formats.

**Parameters:**

- Formats: `jpg`, `png`, `webp` (default `jpg`)
- Quality: *(detected automatically when omited)*
    - `jpg`: 0 - 100 (default `85`)
    - `png`: 0 - 9 (default `9`)
    - `webp`: (default `80`)
- Resolution (in pixels per inch) (default `600` - suitable for printing)

#### Example

[](#example)

```
$pdfFiles = [
  'path/to/1.pdf',
  'path/to/2.pdf',
];

// Basic conversion with automatically detected quality and printable resolution
$convertedFiles = $client->convertPdfFiles($pdfFiles, 'jpg');

// With custom quality and resolution
$convertedFiles = $client->convertPdfFiles($pdfFiles, 'jpg', 50, 300);

// Conversion to webp with custom resolution (default quality)
$convertedFiles = $client->convertPdfFiles($pdfFiles, 'webp', null, 300);

foreach ($convertedFiles as $name => $file) {
	file_put_contents('/path/' . $name, base64_decode($file));
}
```

#### PDF with multiple pages

[](#pdf-with-multiple-pages)

When PDF with multiple pages passed, to each page is added suffix with page number.

```
Input:
awesomePdfFile.pdf (3 pages)

Output:
awesomePdfFile_0.jpg
awesomePdfFile_1.jpg
awesomePdfFile_2.jpg

```

### HTML to PDF

[](#html-to-pdf)

#### Basic conversion

[](#basic-conversion)

```
$html = "Look At Me, I'm PDF now!";

// $pdf can be directly forwarded for download
$pdf = $client->convertHtmlToPdf($html);

// or with custom filename
$pdf = $client->convertHtmlToPdf($html, 'awesomePdfFile.pdf');
```

#### Advanced conversion

[](#advanced-conversion)

You can customize conversion with [DevTools Protocol Options](https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/tot/Page/#method-printToPDF)

```
// Show footer with page numbers
$options = [
	'displayHeaderFooter' => true,
	'headerTemplate' => '',
	'footerTemplate' => 'Page:  / '
];
$pdf = $client->convertHtmlToPdf($html, null, $options);
```
