TCPDI
=====

[](#tcpdi)

Composer ready [TCPDI](https://github.com/pauln/tcpdi).

PDF importer for [TCPDF](http://www.tcpdf.org/), based on [FPDI](http://www.setasign.de/products/pdf-php-solutions/fpdi/). Requires [pauln/tcpdi\_parser](https://github.com/pauln/tcpdi_parser) and [FPDF\_TPL](http://www.setasign.de/products/pdf-php-solutions/fpdi/downloads/)which are included in the repository.

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

[](#installation)

Link package in composer.json, e.g.

```
composer require propa/tcpdi
```

Usage
-----

[](#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.

```
// 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; $i importPage($i);
    $pdf->AddPage();
    $pdf->useTemplate($tplidx);
}

// 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->setSourceFile('/path/to/file-to-import.pdf');

// Import the bleed box (default is crop box) for page 1.
$tplidx = $pdf->importPage(1, '/BleedBox');
$size = $pdf->getTemplatesize($tplidx);
$orientation = ($size['w'] > $size['h']) ? 'L' : 'P';

$pdf->AddPage($orientation);

// Set page boxes from imported page 1.
$pdf->setPageFormatFromTemplatePage(1, $orientation);

// Import the content for page 1.
$pdf->useTemplate($tplidx);

// Import the annotations for page 1.
$pdf->importAnnotations(1);
```
