i am using TTF embadding in pro edition to include arabic support , any way how can i make my html to pdf converter work based on the fonts that are provided by the html , i need to get this in my head because i have used the steps you specify for the TTF embadding and its not working .

pd4ml.useTTF(“java:fonts”, true);
//pd4ml.useTTF(“/windows/fonts”, true);
pd4ml.setPermissions(“empty”, PD4ML.AllowCopy, false);
pd4ml.setPermissions(“empty”, PD4ML.AllowModify, false);
pd4ml.setHtmlWidth(userSpaceWidth);
pd4ml.setPageSize(format);
pd4ml.adjustHtmlWidth();

pd4ml.render(url, fos);

Hi,

I’m currently working with PD4ML (3.5.1 Pro) for Java.
Here is my issue:

I have a class with CSS properties about background:

.ui-widget-header{<br /> background: url(http://php.dsi.intra.foncia.net/devche/mantis-log/resources/foncia/images/ui-bg_gloss-wave_45_4779c0_500x100.jpg) 50% 50% repeat-x;<br /> }

When I try to render a HTML content into a PDF file, the background image doesn’t appear.
With the debug mode, I can see that the file is sucessfully reached:

image not yet in cache: http://php.dsi.intra.foncia.net/devche/mantis-log/resources/foncia/images/ui-bg_gloss-wave_45_4779c0_500x100.jpg<br /> not yet in cache: http://php.dsi.intra.foncia.net/devche/mantis-log/resources/foncia/images/ui-bg_gloss-wave_45_4779c0_500x100.jpg<br /> image size: 4037

I’ve tried with the last eval version (3.7.1) but the result is the same.
Do I have miss something in my process?

Any help would be appreciate.

It is not possible for limit footer appearance scope to the last page only.

Try to define a footnote at the end of the document, instead of a footer.
footnote text

#28463

You may request the number after pd4ml.render() call:

System.out.println(“pages: ” + (Long)pd4ml.getLastRenderInfo(PD4Constants.PD4ML_TOTAL_PAGES));

#28465

HTML does not provide fonts. It only refers to fonts, present on a client PC (where a client browser has physical access to the fonts).

In order to add fonts to a PDF document, PD4ML needs an access to font files (to parse the TTFs, extract used glyphs and embed the extracted subset to PDF document).

JVM may use fonts in Java applications, but it offers no access to physical font files. In order to workaround the restriction, you need to accept TTF embedding “complexities”.

First I would recommend to use the standard font dir.
pd4ml.useTTF(“/windows/fonts”, true);
But before you need to index existing fonts with the command line call:
java -jar pd4ml.jar -configure.fonts /windows/fonts

After it works you may create a JAR file with selected fonts. But first make sure the above works.

Also if you want to define document access permissions, you should call setPermissions() method only once:

pd4ml.setPermissions(“empty”, PD4ML.AllowCopy | PD4ML.AllowModify, false);

#28462

The forthcoming version is intended to resolve the issue.

#28466

thank you
so if i do as you say any html tag that contains a font attribute with specific font will be interrepted with the appropriate font that i have just embadded and no need to add any additional code i just need say
pd4ml.usttf(“windows:fonts”,true);

thank you

Pd4ML does support CSS selectors like “.tableclass td”.

Is this always true with the last version?
Do you have a reason to not include this feature in PD4ML?

Thanks a lot for you answers.

#27471

We had no reason not to include it, so PD4ML does support the feature.

So it seems to be the same problem that the first post of this topic.
My CSS definition is the following:

.ui-datatable .ui-datatable-data-empty td {
border-color:inherit;
border-width: 1px;
border-style: solid;
padding:4px 10px 4px 10px;
}

It seems to be OK with PD4ML but it doesn’t work.
If I put the class directly in the HTML element, it works.

Do you have any idea about this issue?
Thanks.
Clemiou

#27473

Could you please also publish an HTML snippet, you want to apply the CSS to.

Also, to make sure the CSS selector does not work, try to temporarily add any obvious CSS property, like “color: red”.

#28467

You need to pass either a directory name of the font dir
pd4ml.useTTF(“/windows/fonts”,true);
or refer to a resource, available via the classloader (distinguished by “java:” prefix)
pd4ml.useTTF(“java:fonts”,true);

In both cases pd4fonts.properties file has to be generated in advance with
java -jar pd4ml.jar -configure.fonts …
call.
