AcceptPageBreak
boolean AcceptPageBreak()
Description
Whenever a page break condition is met, the method is called, and the break is issued or not depending on the returned value. The default implementation returns a value according to the mode selected by SetAutoPageBreak().This method is called automatically and should not be called directly by the application.
Example
The method is overriden in an inherited class in order to obtain a 3 column layout:class PDF extends FPDF
{
var $col = 0;
function SetCol($col)
{
// Move position to a column
$this->col = $col;
$x = 10+$col*65;
$this->SetLeftMargin($x);
$this->SetX($x);
}
function AcceptPageBreak()
{
if($this->col<2 column="" go="" next="" this-="" to="">SetCol($this->col+1);
$this->SetY(10);
return false;
}
else
{
// Go back to first column and issue page break
$this->SetCol(0);
return true;
}
}
}
$pdf = new PDF();
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->SetFont('Arial','',12);
for($i=1;$i<=300;$i++)
$pdf->Cell(0,5,"Line $i",0,1);
$pdf->Output();2>
AddFont
AddFont(string family [, string style [, string file]])
Description
Imports a TrueType, OpenType or Type1 font and makes it available. It is necessary to generate a font definition file first with the MakeFont utility.The definition file (and the font file itself when embedding) must be present in the font directory. If it is not found, the error "Could not include font definition file" is raised.
Parameters
family
- Font family. The name can be chosen arbitrarily. If it is a standard family name, it will override the corresponding font.
style
- Font style. Possible values are (case insensitive):
- empty string: regular
B
: boldI
: italicBI
orIB
: bold italic
file
- The font definition file.
By default, the name is built from the family and style, in lower case with no space.
Example
$pdf->AddFont('Comic','I');
$pdf->AddFont('Comic','I','comici.php');
AddLink
int AddLink()
Description
Creates a new internal link and returns its identifier. An internal link is a clickable area which directs to another place within the document.The identifier can then be passed to Cell(), Write(), Image() or Link(). The destination is defined with SetLink().
AddPage
AddPage([string orientation [, mixed size]])
Description
Adds a new page to the document. If a page is already present, the Footer() method is called first to output the footer. Then the page is added, the current position set to the top-left corner according to the left and top margins, and Header() is called to display the header.The font which was set before calling is automatically restored. There is no need to call SetFont() again if you want to continue with the same font. The same is true for colors and line width.
The origin of the coordinate system is at the top-left corner and increasing ordinates go downwards.
Parameters
orientation
- Page orientation. Possible values are (case insensitive):
P
orPortrait
L
orLandscape
size
- Page size. It can be either one of the following values (case insensitive):
A3
A4
A5
Letter
Legal

- The alias. Default value:
{nb}
.
Example
class PDF extends FPDF
{
function Footer()
{
// Go to 1.5 cm from bottom
$this->SetY(-15);
// Select Arial italic 8
$this->SetFont('Arial','I',8);
// Print current and total page numbers
$this->Cell(0,10,'Page '.$this->PageNo().'/{nb}',0,0,'C');
}
}
$pdf = new PDF();
$pdf->AliasNbPages();
Cell
Cell(float w [, float h [, string txt [, mixed border [, int ln [, string align [, boolean fill [, mixed link]]]]]]])
Description
Prints a cell (rectangular area) with optional borders, background color and character string. The upper-left corner of the cell corresponds to the current position. The text can be aligned or centered. After the call, the current position moves to the right or to the next line. It is possible to put a link on the text.If automatic page breaking is enabled and the cell goes beyond the limit, a page break is done before outputting.
Parameters
w
- Cell width. If
0
, the cell extends up to the right margin. h
- Cell height. Default value:
0
. txt
- String to print. Default value: empty string.
border
- Indicates if borders must be drawn around the cell. The value can be either a number:
0
: no border1
: frame
L
: leftT
: topR
: rightB
: bottom
0
. ln
- Indicates where the current position should go after the call. Possible values are:
0
: to the right1
: to the beginning of the next line2
: below
1
is equivalent to putting0
and calling Ln() just after. Default value:0
. align
- Allows to center or align the text. Possible values are:
L
or empty string: left align (default value)C
: centerR
: right align
fill
- Indicates if the cell background must be painted (
true
) or transparent (false
). Default value:false
. link
- URL or identifier returned by AddLink().
Example
// Set font
$pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',16);
// Move to 8 cm to the right
$pdf->Cell(80);
// Centered text in a framed 20*10 mm cell and line break
$pdf->Cell(20,10,'Title',1,1,'C');
Close
Close()
Description
Terminates the PDF document. It is not necessary to call this method explicitly because Output() does it automatically.If the document contains no page, AddPage() is called to prevent from getting an invalid document.
Error
Error(string msg)
Description
This method is automatically called in case of fatal error; it simply outputs the message and halts the execution. An inherited class may override it to customize the error handling but should always halt the script, or the resulting document would probably be invalid.Footer
Footer()
Description
This method is used to render the page footer. It is automatically called by AddPage() and Close() and should not be called directly by the application. The implementation in FPDF is empty, so you have to subclass it and override the method if you want a specific processing.Example
class PDF extends FPDF
{
function Footer()
{
// Go to 1.5 cm from bottom
$this->SetY(-15);
// Select Arial italic 8
$this->SetFont('Arial','I',8);
// Print centered page number
$this->Cell(0,10,'Page '.$this->PageNo(),0,0,'C');
}
}

function Header()
{

- no explicit dimension, in which case the image is put at 96 dpi
For JPEGs, all flavors are allowed:
- gray scales
- true colors (24 bits)
- CMYK (32 bits)

- Width of the image in the page. There are three cases:
- If the value is positive, it represents the width in user unit
- If the value is negative, the absolute value represents the horizontal resolution in dpi
- If the value is not specified or equal to zero, it is automatically calculated
