How can i fill data to PDF file on Laravel? - laravel

I am using Laravel and I have pdf file and i need dinamicaly fill there some fields data.
How can i do this without PDF View?

you can't edit a pdf file to fill his fields, what you can do is generate a pdf file and pass the content with the fields already filled, here is a library to do it: https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-dompdf

I found this solution. I can do it by php-pdftk library library.

you cannot edit the pdf files directly , you got to create fields inside the pdf which can be read by the library. You can try this package strongbond/pdf-filler-laravel , i had a similar situation also wanted to add signature into the pdf which lead me to build this library.

Convert xlsx to pdf using Laravel Excel

I'm trying to use Laravel Excel (maatwebsite) to build a simple function to upload an Excel file and convert it to pdf straight away.
I'm looking for something like that (conceptual obviously) :
$file = $request->file('my_excel');
$excel_object = Excel::import($file);
$excel_object->export('/my/storage/path/my_file.pdf');
Can anyone please explain how to achieve or point me to a relevant example ?
thanks a lot

The easiest way would be to use a package like "Html2Pdf". You should make a blade file with your data, render it to HTML and convert it to pdf.

Is it possible to convert vue js chart to pdf in laravel?

I have to generate a page data of my web site in PDF format. I need to export all the dynamic data with line, bar and pie charts. Is it possible to download in pdf format? For reminder, I am using laravel-dompdf to generate a file.
Let me know if you have any solution for this.
Thanks in advance.
I did research on it, we can not directly convert chartjs into pdf but what we can do is we can convert JS chart into image format and append into tag. Then, we can easily convert them into pdf format.
Let me know if anyone need in detail.
Thanks,

Use already uploaded picture in ezpublish Article

In my article datatype, I've an ezimage field which look like that:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/pZGR3.png
I can upload/drag and drop pictures, set a description, it's work fine.
But I can't figured out how to use already uploaded pictures, ma Media Library is full of pictures but I don't know how to use them in my field.. I think and hope there is a way to add this functionality without overriding ezimage datatype.
Do you have any idea ?
If you have Image objects in your Media Library, you should use an Object Relation field in the Content Classes you want to use this object from. You would then be able to browse for images when editing the content.
Multiple images would also work, by using an Object Relation List instead of a single Object Relation.
Which version of eZ are you dealing with here ?

Searchable PDF Files (Image+Text PDF) validation

I am checking if a PDF document is searchable if I can get any text from every single page in a PDF.
But checking every page seems to take forever when I am trying to extract text from a PDF that contains more than 500~2000 pages.
Is it possible for a PDF to contain text for one page but not in the rest?
What I am trying to do here is that, if a first page of PDF contains text, then it is a searchable PDF else not..
Yes, it is very possible for a PDF to contain text on one page but not the rest. You could very well have a 500 page PDF that contains images on the first 499 pages, but contain text on the last page.
Unless you want to open the PDF file yourself and scan it for text/text operations, you will need to use an existing third-party PDF library that allows you to extract text from a PDF.
Also, see Ferruccio's response to a related question, which is to use the IFilter interface, specifically made for search indexing and text extraction.
Try this version of Searcharoo, which lets you search Word and PDF documents.
