[PHP] PDF creation using PHP, based on a PDF template
Hi all!
I'm trying out this script I found in a book I bought. It does not work
though.. The code is below. It looked like an easy solution for what I want
to do.
It takes a template PDF file and replaces description1 with a value,
bedr1 with a value,...
I want to be able to generate an PDF invoice automatically, based on a
template PDF.
I get this error: The file is damaged and could not be repaired.
Except when I comment out the 4 $output = pdf_replace( ) lines.. then it
works.. so something is wrong with the pdf_replace function..
If I open the PDF in Notepad I noticed it got cut off quite in the beginning
of the file..
Does anyone have an idea?
Or does someone know an other way to create PDF's based on a PDF, on the
fly, using PHP??
Thanks!
Mark.
?
set_time_limit( 180 ); // this script can be very slow
function pdf_replace( $pattern, $replacement, $string )
{
$len = strlen( $pattern );
$regexp = '';
for ( $i = 0; $i$len; $i++ )
{
$regexp .= $pattern[$i];
if ($i$len-1)
$regexp .= (\)\-{0,1}[0-9]*\(){0,1};
}
return ereg_replace ( $regexp, $replacement, $string );
}
$description1=PDF creation module;
$bedrag1=240;
$total1=480;
//generate the headers to help a browser choose the correct application
header( Content-Disposition: filename=result.pdf);
header( Content-type: application/pdf );
$date = date( F d, Y );
// open our template file
$filename = template.pdf;
$fp = fopen ( $filename, r );
//read our template into a variable
$output = fread( $fp, filesize( $filename ) );
fclose ( $fp );
// replace the place holders in the template with our data
$output = pdf_replace( description1, $description1, $output );
$output = pdf_replace( bedr1, $bedrag1, $output );
$output = pdf_replace( tot1, $total1, $output );
$output = pdf_replace( mm/dd/, $date, $output );
// send the generated document to the browser
echo $output;

[PHP] PDFlib error 2516
Hello! Tried out this simple script from a tutorial on creating PDF with PHP: ?php $pdf = PDF_new(); PDF_open_file($pdf, testpdf.pdf); PDF_set_info($pdf, Author, Someone); PDF_set_info($pdf, Title, PDF creation with PHP); PDF_set_info($pdf, Creator, Someone); PDF_set_info($pdf, Subject, Creating PDFs); PDF_begin_page($pdf, 595, 842); $arial = PDF_findfont($pdf, Arial, host, 1); PDF_setfont($pdf, $arial, 14); PDF_show_xy($pdf, Pricelist, 40, 780); PDF_end_page($pdf); PDF_close($pdf); ? However got this error: Fatal error: PDFlib error: [2516] PDF_findfont: Metrics data for font 'Arial' not found in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/resilion.be/httpdocs/test/createpdf.php on line 23 Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be? What does the host mean in the example above ($arial = PDF_findfont($pdf, Arial, host, 1); )?

[PHP] mcrypt and PHP to encrypt values to be passed to differend server
Hello!
I'm trying to use mcrypt to encrypt some values (login and password) I have
to pass from one website to another.
I thook this code from the php.net website as an example:
?php
/* Open the cipher */
$td = mcrypt_module_open ('rijndael-256', '', 'ofb', '');
/* Create the IV and determine the keysize length */
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td), MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM);
$ks = mcrypt_enc_get_key_size ($td);
/* Create key */
$key = substr (md5 ('very secret key'), 0, $ks);
/* Intialize encryption */
mcrypt_generic_init ($td, $key, $iv);
/* Encrypt data */
$encrypted = mcrypt_generic ($td, 'This is very important data');
/* Terminate encryption handler */
mcrypt_generic_deinit ($td);
/* Initialize encryption module for decryption */
mcrypt_generic_init ($td, $key, $iv);
/* Decrypt encrypted string */
$decrypted = mdecrypt_generic ($td, $encrypted);
/* Terminate decryption handle and close module */
mcrypt_generic_deinit ($td);
mcrypt_module_close ($td);
/* Show string */
echo trim ($decrypted).\n;
?
I put this in the page starting from:
?php
$adminlogin = $row1[adminlogin];
$adminpw = $row1[adminpw];
// both are queried from a database
$td = mcrypt_module_open ('rijndael-256', '', 'ofb', '');
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td), MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM);
$ks = mcrypt_enc_get_key_size ($td);
$key = substr (md5 ('a key fsfqz'), 0, $ks);
mcrypt_generic_init ($td, $key, $iv);
/* Encrypt data */
$encryptedlogin = mcrypt_generic ($td, $adminlogin);
$encryptedpassw = mcrypt_generic ($td, $adminpw);
mcrypt_generic_deinit ($td);
mcrypt_module_close ($td);
?
a href=destinationpage.php?login=?php echo($encryptedlogin);
?password=?php echo($encryptedpassw); ? target=_blanklink/a
In the destination page (destinationpage.php, on a different server) I have
this:
$td = mcrypt_module_open ('rijndael-256', '', 'ofb', '');
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td),
MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM);
$ks = mcrypt_enc_get_key_size ($td);
$key = substr (md5 ('a key fsfqz'), 0, $ks);
mcrypt_generic_init ($td, $key, $iv);
/* Decrypt encrypted string */
$login = mdecrypt_generic ($td, $login);
$login = trim ($login);
$password = mdecrypt_generic ($td, $password);
$password = trim ($password);
mcrypt_generic_deinit ($td);
mcrypt_module_close ($td);
and then an echo($login - $passwordbr); to check if the values are
correct.
But they are not!!
What am I doing wrong?? Is it because both are on a different server?
I would very much appreciate your help. Or if someone has an other good way
of encrypting values, please let me know!
Thanks!!!
Mark.

[PHP] sending php page by mail
Hi all, Description of my problem: i want to sent a newsletter to a mailgroup. However i also want to be able to see who read the mail at a certain moment and who didn't. Therefor i thought putting the page online, i.e. it's a php page which gets its data from the database. By sending a mail to the client with it's personal emailID, i can track who reads the mail when accessing the php page. That part works fine, but my problem now is that i want the page to be opened directly in the mail, so the receiver of the mail does not have to click on a link to see it.. Someone told me to use this: $msg_body = img src='http://www.domain.com/eletters/letters.php?ID=; . $letterID . emailID= . $sendtoID . '; But all i get, working like this is a broken image in the mail. This is the headers i use sending the mail: $headers .= From: ; $headers .= $mailfrom; $headers .= \nReply-To: ; $headers .= $mailfrom; $headers .= \nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n; Did i forgot something? Is there an other way to do this? Thank you very much for any answer!
