Laravel TCPDF

, _(*1)

A simple Laravel 5 service provider with some basic configuration for including the TCPDF library, _(*2)

Installation

The Laravel TCPDF service provider can be installed via composer by requiring the xaoc/laravel-tcpdf package in your project's composer.json. (The installation may take a while, because the package requires TCPDF. Sadly its .git folder is very heavy), _(*3)

{
    "require": {
        "xaoc/laravel-tcpdf": "dev-master"
    }
}

Next, add the service provider to app/config/app.php., _(*4)

'providers' => [
    //..
    'Xaoc\LaravelTcpdf\LaravelTcpdfServiceProvider',
]

That's it! You're good to go., _(*5)

Here is a little example:, _(*6)

PDF::SetTitle('Hello World');

PDF::AddPage();

PDF::Write(0, 'Hello World');

PDF::Output('hello_world.pdf');

For a list of all available function take a look at the TCPDF Documentation, _(*7)

Configuration

Laravel-TCPDF comes with some basic configuration. If you want to override the defaults, you can publish the config, like so:, _(*8)

php artisan vendor:publish

Now access app/config/laravel-tcpdf.phpto customize., _(*9)

Extend/Overwrite

Extending or overwriting Laravel TCPDF is easy. Simply extend \Xaoc\LaravelTcpdf\LaravelTcpdf with your own class., _(*10)

Custom Fonts

To add custom fonts set the fonts_directory in the config, relative to the public path. For example 'fonts/'., _(*11)

To use a custom font you have to convert a font for TCPDF. Copy your custom font(s) to your fonts path, in our case public/fonts/. In your terminal do this:, _(*12)

vendor/xaoc/laravel-tcpdf/vendor/tecnick.com/tcpdf/tools/tcpdf_addfont.php -i public/fonts/yourfont.ttf -o public/fonts

This uses a little tool provided by TCPDF to convert fonts for TCPDF. The -i flag is for the input fonts (comma-separated list) and the -o flag is for the output directory. Read here all about TCPDF fonts and how to convert them the new way., _(*13)
