PDF's

[RFH Reseller: Furzetech]

Does anyone know if redfox offer the ability to convert a form to a pdf before it is emailed to the customer?

One of my customers needs a form completed on their website then a non editable version of that form to be emailed to them and the customer, i have seen software about that does this, but wondered if it was an option to that here.

Hi Warren (or anyone!) - is there anything similar to this for PHP?

Thanks

Hi Warren,


Thanks for that - I've used fpdf before (briefly) but I'm now at the stage of needing to open an existing pdf, putting some text over the top of it, then outputting. I'm currently trying FPDI http://fpdi.setasign.de/ as a plugin but for some reason it corrupts the pdf!?

The ASP solution looks superb so might have to learn so ASP!

Thanks

Ed

You may be able to use the ASPPDF ActiveX COM object in PHP using PHPs own COM class:

Hi Warren,

Thanks again for your help, I think I've got fdpi + fpdf to start to work so I'm going to have a play around. The COM option seems a bit complicated for what I'm trying to do.


Cheers
