Hello, I am looking forward to find some help regarding the creation of thumbnails from a modified pdf.
I use Zend_PDF to add some text and images to an existing pdf. The way I use Zend is this: $pdf = Zend_PDF::load(realpath($path)); $page = $pdf->pages[$page]; $font = getFont(); //here I load the Calibri.ttf or Eurostile.ttf e.g. $page->setFont($font, $fontSize); $page->drawText($tmp, $posx, $posY, "UTF-8"); $pdf->save($savePath); After this I use GhostScript to generate thumbnails using the following: gs -dBatch -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -sDEVICE=png16m -r300 -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -sOutputFile=out/pdf_page1_thumbnail.png pdfs/pdf.pdf -c quit The problem is, that in most cases the inserted text is in a different font size or the letters are overlaying each other. The modified pdf documents are good. Here is a link that shows some generated thumbnails: https://printportal.la-well.de/thumbs.php I dont know if I am in the right place here. Please let me know, if you have any hints or solutions to it.
