POmPDF auto print issue
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm using a php class, mpdf, which generates PDF's very nicely. I'm trying to get the file to automatically print (i.e., open the print dialog) when rendered. I've extended the core functioning with the code below to add javascript to the pdf. The pdf is rendered but without auto-printing. Any help would be great. Thanks!</p> <pre><code> require('mpdf.php'); class PDF_JavaScript extends mPDF { var $javascript; var $n_js; function IncludeJS($script) { $this->javascript=$script; } function _putjavascript() { $this->_newobj(); $this->n_js=$this->n; $this->_out('<<'); $this->_out('/Names [(EmbeddedJS) '.($this->n+1).' 0 R]'); $this->_out('>>'); $this->_out('endobj'); $this->_newobj(); $this->_out('<<'); $this->_out('/S /JavaScript'); $this->_out('/JS '.$this->_textstring($this->javascript)); $this->_out('>>'); $this->_out('endobj'); } function _putresources() { parent::_putresources(); if (!empty($this->javascript)) { $this->_putjavascript(); } } function _putcatalog() { parent::_putcatalog(); if (!empty($this->javascript)) { $this->_out('/Names <</JavaScript '.($this->n_js).' 0 R>>'); } } } class PDF_AutoPrint extends PDF_Javascript { function AutoPrint($dialog=false) { //Embed some JavaScript to show the print dialog or start printing immediately $param=($dialog ? 'true' : 'false'); $script="print($param);"; $this->IncludeJS($script); } } $mpdf = new PDF_AutoPrint('', 'Letter', 0, '', 12.7, 12.7, 14, 12.7, 8, 8); $stylesheet = file_get_contents('eabill.css'); $mpdf->WriteHTML($stylesheet,1); $mpdf->WriteHTML($message,2); $mpdf->AutoPrint(true); $mpdf->Output(); </code></pre>
