Phoca Forum

Having Phoca PDF v3.0.0 running in a Joomla 3.2.3 site.
Need to generate PDF 's with a background wich covers the pages, like the example in the latest TCPDF version (version 6.0.2, example 51).
Assuming that this is also possible in the version tcpdf (v-5.9.205) wich is installed with Phoca PDF v3.0.0, how can I do this and in wich script do I have to insert this?

Is it also possible to install the latest TCPDF version in the Phoca component ?

Hi,

- I didn't test the background image feature, so you need to test it
- latest - yes, you can update it, but sometimes it happens, that something is in conflict, so you need to be ready for possible conflicts.

Thanks Jan, can you tell me wich Phoca script I should change to implement the feature?
B.T.W : I have tried just to replace the tcpdf directory in ./assets with the latest version, but that did result in a server error, so I think it's not as easy as I thought

Hi, I think you need to somehow customize directly the tcpdf library

That's odd. The tcpdf lib already supports a way to display backgrounds. It only has to be served from the Phoca PDF module.
I'm now so far that it displays the first page with a background, but the following pages does not, so I think it has something to do with the pagination.

Hi, added to feature request list.

Thanks Jan, but I already solved it.

Ok
