    PDF Generation With PHP - Heaven Is A Place On Earth


    (Page 7 of 8 )

    You can set document information with the pdf_set_info_*() family of functions; this information identifies the document creator, title and content. The following example demonstrates:
    <?php
    // create handle for new PDF document
    $pdf = pdf_new();
    // open a file
    pdf_open_file($pdf, "philosophy.pdf");
    // start a new page (A4)
    pdf_begin_page($pdf, 595, 842);
    // set document information
    pdf_set_info_author($pdf, "William Shakespeare");
    pdf_set_info_creator($pdf, "William Shakespeare");
    pdf_set_info_title($pdf, "Hamlet"); pdf_set_info_subject($pdf, "Act IScene 5"); 
    pdf_set_info_keywords($pdf, "Horatio Hamlet philosophy");
    // get and use a font object
    $arial = pdf_findfont($pdf, "Arial", "host", 1); 
    pdf_setfont($pdf,$arial, 10);
    // print text
    pdf_show_xy($pdf, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,",50, 750);
    pdf_show_xy($pdf, "than are dreamt of in your philosophy", 50,730);
    // end page
    pdf_end_page($pdf);
    // close and save file
    pdf_close($pdf);
    ?>
    And now, when you view the dynamically-generated PDF file in Acrobat Reader, you'll see this information in the Document Properties window.
