Digg  fdf_create
Create a new FDF document
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
Example 608. Populating a PDF document<?phpCode Examples / Notes » fdf_createsergei
I thought the following might save someone a lot of time. The example fdf snippet above, namely: <?php $outfdf = fdf_create(); fdf_set_value($outfdf, "volume", $volume, 0); fdf_set_file($outfdf, "http:/testfdf/resultlabel.pdf"); fdf_save($outfdf, "outtest.fdf"); fdf_close($outfdf); Header("Content-type: application/vnd.fdf"); $fp = fopen("outtest.fdf", "r"); fpassthru($fp); unlink("outtest.fdf"); ?> will not work (or there's at least a big possibility it won't) in IE (version 6 sure and I suspect lower versions as well) if you have session.auto_start on. Apparently, setting a cookie before feeding the fdf to the browser somehow messes it up. It works fine in Netscape though. I spent days on Google before I found a post somewhere about someone else having the same problem. The solution? Well, I created a separate directory in the web tree and turned session.auto_start off just for that directory like this: <Location /new_directory> php_admin_flag session.auto_start 0 </Location> Hope this was useful to somebody. mlarke
Header("Content-type: application/vnd.fdf"); simply does not work in IE. The easiest method to automatically load the fdf file is to open the 'pdf' file via php. With use of Acrobat document -> page action -> page open -> add -> javascript and paste the following into the pdf file: this.importAnFDF("my_fdf_file.fdf"); This will auto-load the fdf contents Cheers Mike jwadhwani
For fdf_save you need to provide the complete path, such as :fdf_save($outfdf,"c:/inetpub/wwwroot/temp_sites/fdf/outtest.fdf"); and not only outtest.fdf.

<?php $outfdf = fdf_create(); $volume = "test"; fdf_set_value($outfdf, "volume", $volume, 0); fdf_set_file($outfdf, "http://localhost/webapps/volume.pdf"); Header("Content-type: application/vnd.fdf"); fdf_save($outfdf); fdf_close($outfdf); ?> This works for IE 5.5+ It will populate the fields and open the resulting pdf for you, without having to create an fdf file and adding the open script to the pdf... |
