How to set the font for the PDF using PHP in windows ?

[santhanalakshmi]

Hi ,


I am trying to Create a PDF File in PHP :

This is the coding which i followed :

<?php
$pdffile=pdf_new();
pdf_open_file($pdffile,"F:\bharat.pdf");
pdf_begin_page($pdffile,595,842);
$fontdir = "C:\WINDOWS\Fonts";
 pdf_set_parameter($$pdffile, "FontOutline", "arialMyName=$fontdir\arial.ttf");
$font1=pdf_findfont($pdffile,arialMyName,"host",0);
pdf_setfont($pdffile,$font1,10);
pdf_show_xy($pdffile,"Keep Trusting God",50,750);
pdf_end_page($pdffile);
pdf_close($pdffile);
?>

But when i am trying to run this program,i am facing an error is :

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PDFlibException' with message 'pdf_set_parameter() expects parameter 1 to be resource, null given' in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\pdf_file.php:44 Stack trace: #0 C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\pdf_file.php(44): pdf_set_parameter() #1 {main} thrown in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\pdf_file.php on line 44


thanks.....

Hey.

You are using two $ chars in the first parameter for the pdf_set_parameter function on line #5. Removing one of them should fix this error.
