tables: problem with font-size, spacing & img

naveen — Tue, 27 Sep 2016 13:28:33 -0000

HTML2PDF works quite good and is superior to many other classes when it comes to tables. However, there's still a few annoying bugs (or maybe i'm just doing something wrong?)
- inside a it will not alter the font-width. i tried using <H2> tags (that made even the text after the closing tag bold), , <div style= etc., but nothing worked. The example on the website (with the table) doesn't show any differences in size either, so maybe this is a known bug?
- images will align to the left of a cell. i can't get it to the center. I've tried a workaround with extra cells, but unfortunately the extra cells beared another bug. They just wouldn't stick to the width i set for them. My solution was to push the image with some text that had the same color as the background.
- the spacing between 2 table-rows is quite big. i couldn't find anything to change that
apart from all that, it works quite nice :-)

html2pdf does not interpret a table within another table cel

Anonymous — Wed, 20 May 2009 15:35:27 -0000

html2pdf doesn't recognize a table embedded inside another table cell. It shows up as if that particular table cell which had another table completely empty. For example.
<table >
<tr><td> 
<table><tr><td>hello</td></tr></table>
</tr></td>
</table>

Header not getting Printer.

Anonymous — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 22:38:54 -0000

I have a helper class say pdfHelper as below

class pdfHelper extends HTML@PDF{

function Header(){
//some code
}

function Footer(){
// some code
}
}

When the footer is working properly the header is not working when i call the WriteHTML() function where the html goes over one page.

I guess the function Header in HTML2PDF should consider the printing of user headers like images other than table headers when the table goes over one page.

Thank you.

FPDF error: GIF parser: unable to open file

I can't seem to figure out the problem here, there's no additional details on this error...

Notice: Undefined index: wrapper in /home/share/www/tmp/html

You should try working to error_reporting(E_ALL);

You should check that variables are set using isset() before you use them.

elseif (isset($attr['ID']) && isset($this->CSS[$attr['ID']])) $properties = $this->CSS[$attr['ID']];

Also, unrelated... a few lines above you see this...

if( isset($attr['ALIGN']) and $attr['ALIGN'] != '' )

That can be written like this:

if (isset($attr['ALIGN']) && !empty($attr['ALIGN']))

Warning: file_get_contents(http://www.hm2k.com/wp-content/th

Warning: file_get_contents(http://www.hm2k.com/wp-content/themes/hm2k/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen,print) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in /home/share/www/tmp/html2fpdf/html2fpdf.php on line 2211

I found that the regex on line 2182 was incorrect...

FIND
$regexp = '/<link rel="stylesheet".*?href="(.+?)"\\s*?\/?>/si';

REPLACE WITH
$regexp = '/<link rel=[\'"]stylesheet[\'"].*?href=[\'"](.+?)[\'"]/si';

It doesn't need to be so strict... just an opening and closing " will do...

I gave it an option of using " or ', as sometimes people use '...

You shouldn't really use regex to parse HTML anyway, but never mind...

Link tag regex incorrect (Fix included)

Keilaron — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 20:41:08 -0000

Using version 3.0.2beta.

This tag gets the following error:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="wizard/wizard.css" type="text/css" />

[29-Feb-2008 15:16:46] PHP Warning: file_get_contents(wizard/wizard.css" type="text/css) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: Invalid argument in .../html2fpdf.php on line 2211

This is due to the regex on line 2182 being incorrect. Instead of:
$regexp = '/<link rel="stylesheet".*?href="(.+?)"\\s*?\/?>/si';
It should be:
$regexp = '/<link rel="stylesheet".*?href="([^"]+?)"\\s*?\/?>/si';
What is changed is that instead of being ".+?" it is changed to "[^"]+?", meaning everything but ".

Image() Bug Found - I have the solution

Anonymous — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 02:05:38 -0000

Most calls to the Image() function use the following code to see if the given source path is an actual file:

$f_exists = @fopen($srcpath,"rb");
if (!$f_exists) //Show 'image not found' icon instead

This is a slow & antiquated method of checking to see if a file exists, and it's causing errors within HTML2PDF.

Simple Solution, use if_file() instead:

if (!is_file($srcpath)) //Show 'image not found' icon instead

Unable to read microsoft office word generated GIF images

Bug generating tables bigger than one page in Landscape Mode

Anonymous — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 16:51:56 -0000

Since several months now (in fact since the beginning) I experiene a bug while trying to generate a table that is bigger than one page in landscape mode.

Though it works in portrait mode, in lanscape mode, my table displays correctly for the first several rows and then, when it needs to start a new page for the next rows, it displays only one cell by page (at the bottom of the page) before adding a new page, which leads to have for example 35 pages instead of 2.

Any of you have ever experienced that or have any solution ?

Thanks by the way, the class is great.
