Variables

array $pages = array() (line 124)

Pages collection

var: - array of Zend_Pdf_Page object
todo: implement it as a class, which supports ArrayAccess and Iterator interfaces, to provide incremental parsing and pages tree updating. That will give good performance and memory (PDF size) benefits.

Methods

static getMemoryManager (line 178)

Request used memory manager

access: public

static Zend_Memory_Manager getMemoryManager ()

static load (line 217)

Load PDF document from a file

access: public

static Zend_Pdf load ([string $source = null], [integer $revision = null])

string $source
integer $revision

static parse (line 205)

Create new PDF document from a $source string

access: public

static Zend_Pdf parse ([ &$source = null], [integer $revision = null], string $source)

string $source
integer $revision
&$source

static pdfDate (line 669)

Convert date to PDF format (it's close to ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) defined in ISO/IEC 8824).

todo: Address the following E_STRICT issue: PHP Strict Standards: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ environment variable or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier.
todo: This really isn't the best location for this method. It should probably actually exist as Zend_Pdf_Element_Date or something like that.
access: public

static string pdfDate ([integer $timestamp = null])

integer $timestamp: (optional) If omitted, uses the current time.

static setMemoryManager (line 192)

access: public

static void setMemoryManager ( $memoryManager)

Zend_Memory_Manager $memoryManager

Constructor __construct (line 261)

Creates or loads PDF document.

If $source is null, then it creates a new document.

If $source is a string and $load is false, then it loads document from a binary string.

If $source is a string and $load is true, then it loads document from a file. $revision used to roll back document to specified version (0 - currtent version, 1 - previous version, 2 - ...)

throws: Zend_Pdf_Exception
access: public

integer $revision
$load
