1Installation
2============
3 * Download the .zip file and unzip it
4 * Create a folder e.g. /mpdf on your server
5 * Upload all of the files to the server, maintaining the folders as they are
6 * Ensure that you have write permissions set (CHMOD 6xx or 7xx) for the following folders:
7 /ttfontdata/ - used to cache font data; improves performance a lot
8 /tmp/ - used for some images and ProgressBar
9 /graph_cache/ - if you are using JpGraph in conjunction with mPDF
10
11To test the installation, point your browser to the basic example file : [path_to_mpdf_folder]/mpdf/examples/example_basic.php
12
13If you wish to define a different folder for temporary files rather than /tmp/ see the note on 'Folder for temporary files' in
14 the section on Installation & Setup in the manual (http://mpdf1.com/manual/).
15
16If you have problems, please read the section on troubleshooting in the manual.

19Fonts
20=====
21I will refer to font names in 2 ways:
22"CSS font-family name" - mPDF is designed primarily to read HTML and CSS. This is the name used in CSS e.g.
23 <p style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS';">
24
25"mPDF font-family name" - the name used internally to process fonts. This could be anything you like,
26 but by default mPDF will convert CSS font-family names by removing any spaces and changing
27 to lowercase. Reading the name above, mPDF will look for a "mPDF font-family name" of
28 'trebuchetms'.
29
30The configurable values referred to below are set in the config_fonts.php file
31
32When parsing HTML/CSS, mPDF will read the CSS font-family name (e.g. 'Trebuchet MS') and convert
33by removing any spaces and changing to lowercase, to look for a mPDF font-family name (trebuchetms).
34
35Next it will look for a translation (if set) e.g.:
36$this->fonttrans = array(
37 'trebuchetms' => 'trebuchet'
38)
39
40Now the mPDF font-family name to be used is 'trebuchet'
41
42If you wish to make this font available, you need to specify the Truetype .ttf font files for each variant.
43These should be defined in the array:
44$this->fontdata = array(
45 "trebuchet" => array(
46 'R' => "trebuc.ttf",
47 'B' => "trebucbd.ttf",
48 'I' => "trebucit.ttf",
49 'BI' => "trebucbi.ttf",
50 )
51)
52
53This is the array which determines whether a font is available to mPDF. Each font-family must have a
54Regular ['R'] file defined - the others (bold, italic, bold-italic) are optional.
55
56mPDF will try to load the font-file. If you have defined _MPDF_SYSTEM_TTFONTS at the top of the
57config_fonts.php file, it will first look for the font-file there. This is useful if you are running
58mPDF on a computer which already has a folder with TTF fonts in (e.g. on Windows)
59
60If the font-file is not there, or _MPDF_SYSTEM_TTFONTS is not defined, mPDF will look in the folder
61/[your_path_to_mpdf]/ttfonts/
62
63Note that the font-file names are case-sensitive and can contain capitals.
64
65If the folder /ttfontdata/ is writeable (CHMOD 644 or 755), mPDF will save files there which it can
66re-use next time it accesses a particular font. This will significantly improve processing time
67and is strongly recommended.
68
69mPDF should be able to read most TrueType Unicode font files with a .ttf extension
70Truetype fonts with .ttf extension that are OpenType also work OK.
71TrueType collections (.ttc) will also work if they contain TrueType Unicode fonts.
72
73
74Character substitution
75----------------------
76Most people will have access to a Pan-Unicode font with most Unicode characters in it such as
77Arial Unicode MS. Set $this->backupSubsFont = array('arialunicodems'); at the top of the config_fonts.php file
78to use this font when substituting any characters not found in the specific font being used.
79
80Example:
81You can set $mpdf->useSubstitutions = true; at runtime
82or $this->useSubstitutions = true; in the config.php file
83
84<p style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'">This text contains a Thai character &#3617; which does not exist
85in the Comic Sans MS font file</p>
86
87When useSubstitutions is true, mPDF will try to find substitutions for any missing characters:
881) firstly looks if the character is available in the inbuilt Symbols or ZapfDingbats fonts;
892) [If defined] looks in each of the the font(s) set by $this->backupSubsFont array
90
91NB There is an increase in processing time when using substitutions, and even more so if
92a backupSubsFont is defined.
93
94Controlling mPDF mode
95=====================
96The first parameter of new mPDF('') works as follows:
97new mPDF('c') - forces mPDF to only use the built-in [c]ore Adobe fonts (Helvetica, Times etc)
98
99new mPDF('') - default - font subsetting behaviour is determined by the configurable variables
100 $this->maxTTFFilesize and $this->percentSubset (see below)
101 Default values are set so that: 1) very large font files are always subset
102 2) Fonts are embedded as subsets if < 30% of the characters are used
103
104new mPDF('..-x') - used together with a language or language/country code, this will cause
105 mPDF to use only in-built core fonts (Helvetica, Times) if the language specified is appropiate;
106 otherwise it will force subsetting (equivalent to using "")
107 e.g. new mPDF('de-x') or new mPDF('pt-BR-x') will use in-built core fonts
108 and new mPDF('ru-x') will use subsets of any available TrueType fonts
109 The languages that use core fonts are defined in config_cp.php (using the value $coreSuitable).
110
111new mPDF('..+aCJK') new mPDF('+aCJK')
112new mPDF('..-aCJK') new mPDF('-aCJK')
113 - used optionally together with a language or language/country code, +aCJK will force mPDF
114 to use the Adobe non-embedded CJK fonts when a passage is marked with e.g. "lang: ja"
115 This can be used at runtime to override the value set for $mpdf->useAdobeCJK in config.php
116 Use in conjunction with settings in config_cp.php
117
118For backwards compatibility, new mPDF('-s') and new mPDF('s') will force subsetting by
119 setting $this->percentSubset=100 (see below)
120 new mPDF('utf-8-s') and new mPDF('ar-s') are also recognised
121
122Language/Country (ll-cc)
123------------------------
124You can use a language code ('en') or language/country code ('en-GB') to control which
125mode/fonts are used. The behaviour is set up in config_cp.php file.
126The default settings show some of the things you can do:
127new mPDF('de') - as German is a Western European langauge, it is suitable to use the Adobe core fonts.
128 Using 'de' alone will do nothing, but if you use ('de-x'), this will use core fonts.
129new mPDF('th') - many fonts do not contain the characters necessary for Thai script. The value $unifonts
130 defines a restricted list of fonts available for mPDF to use.
131
132NB <html dir="rtl"> or <body dir="rtl"> are supported.
133
134
135
136Configuration variables changed
137===============================
138Configuration variables are documented in the on-line manual (http://mpdf1.com/manual/).
139
140
141Font folders
142============
143If you wish to define your own font file folders (perhaps to share),
144you can define the 2 constants in your script before including the mpdf.php script e.g.:
145
146define('_MPDF_TTFONTPATH','your_path/ttfonts/');
147define('_MPDF_TTFONTDATAPATH','your_path/ttfontdata/'); // should be writeable
