Make user download pdf instead of saving to a location
- by chupinette
Hello!I was trying out the following code which actually saves the pdf file to C:/xampp/
I want to create a link so that when the user clicks on it. It prompts it to save the pdf file.
<?php
// create handle for new PDF document
$pdf = pdf_new();
// open a file
pdf_open_file($pdf, "try1.pdf");
// start a new page (A4)
pdf_begin_page($pdf, 595, 842);
pdf_set_parameter($pdf, 'FontOutline',
'Arial=c:\windows\fonts\arial.ttf');
// get and use a font object
$font = pdf_findfont($pdf, "Arial", "host", 1);
pdf_setfont($pdf, $font, 10);
// print text
pdf_show_xy($pdf, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,", 50, 750);
pdf_show_xy($pdf, "than are dreamt of in your philosophy", 50, 730);
// add an image under the text
//$image = pdf_open_image_file($pdf, "jpeg", "shakespeare.jpg"); pdf_place_image($pdf, $image, 50, 650, 0.25);
// end page
pdf_end_page($pdf);
// close and save file
pdf_close($pdf);
?>
