PHP Wrapper for callas pdfChip
==============================

[](#php-wrapper-for-callas-pdfchip)

A PHP wrapper class for [callas pdfChip](https://www.callassoftware.com/en/products/pdfchip).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

This library is installed via [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/). To install, use `composer require pointybeard/pdfchip` or add `"pointybeard/pdfchip": "^1.0"` to your `composer.json` file.

And run composer to update your dependencies:

```
$ curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
$ php composer.phar update

```

### Using the Mock Executable

[](#using-the-mock-executable)

If the system you are running code on does not have pdfChip installed or it cannot be activiated, use the mock command `bin/pdfchip` instead. It emulates `--help`, `--status`, and processing input html.

To do this, make `bin/pdfchip` executable and place it in your system path (e.g. symlinking to `/usr/local/bin`).

Now, the pdfchip library will call this mock executable instead. Note you will always get the same pdf output regardless of input.

### Requirements

[](#requirements)

This library requires pdfChip and PHP 7.4 or later.
