Tue, 03/18/2008 - 19:58 — john

the new graphic component allows you to use smarty templates to output to pdfs or images.

config.php:

//only necessary if you are creating images
define_once('graphic_image_fontfile', '/path/to/font.ttf');

includes.php:
$zoop->addComponent('graphic');

zone_default.php:
function pagePrintTest($p, $z)
{
        $gui = &new SmartPdf();
        //$gui = &new SmartImage(array('width' => 600, 'height' => 400));
        $gui->assign('test', 'Hi this is something');
        $gui->display('test.tpl');
}

test.tpl:
<p style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #006699">
    This is a chart
</p>
<p>
    {$test}
</p>
<table>
  <tr>
    <td>
      item 1
    </td>
    <td>
      item2
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
