i'm afraid pdf format will be very slow. so, it's not an option for me.
i'm looking for a method (css or javascript) to set the size or print area
of the page, like 8. 5 x 5.5 inches to print forms, or 3.5 x 2 inches to
print labels, or 7.5 x 3.5 inches to print inventory tags, or any other
size.
So, my question is can we set table size or div tag or any other tag to be
exact 8.5" x 5.5" or 3.5" x 2" or any other size?
I realize this top becomes non-php related, but I hope someone can help me
out.
Thank you so much,
JC

Is there css that is designed specifically for printing? If so do you have a

I have the same problem but use pdf for everything. It is a pain though.
Since there is no fop implementation in php (unless you want to also run
java) I have started writing my own xml -> pdf engine (not to any standard
just one that does what I need). It speeds things up a lot most of time.
Updating the engine takes time though.

With CSS you can tell the printer how to print.

Hi list,
My organization is use a very old DOS language to program and I'm
planning to move the whole system to mysql & php. But I have a problem
during the planning process. Here's the problem:
We print a lot of forms (different size), barcodes, tags, and labels.
Now, if we migrate to mysql & php, is there a way to format (html) so
that we can still print forms, barcodes, tags, and labels all in
different size? Is there any tool out there that can accomplish this?
Thanks,
JC
