I have some old magazine articles that members of our club can download. They are already as PDF. What I need is something that writes a footer to these PDF pages. The footer should contain the username and some licensetext.

Can Phoca PDF do this?


Thanks

Hi, you can write the footer data into footer area (there is an editor for it, so you can write it there). You can write there everything you want...

Yes i understand that.

But can I write variables like $me or $today to get the user name written in the footer on the fly when the user download the file?

I want to mark the PDF-file with the user as a form of preventing it to be distributed to others than the approved members.

Hi, no but for the editor there are the same rules as for editors in joomla... you can write some kind of plugin for Phoca PDF (this need to done in PHP code) ... so e.g. you will paste into the editor {phocapdf variable=date} and with help of plugin code you will translate this string into your own value...
