Re: [WebERP-developers] Replace addJpegFromFile() [from R&OS pdf.php] with Image() [from tcpdf.php]

Hi Gilberto,

About the linked script: It is a follow of my previous email. It is an
example to show that we are trying to do when using the native TCPDF
functions directly instead of includes/class.pdf.php. Obviously, it will
simplify code and make it more efficient, fast, and readable (but we are
going to not have class.pdf.php as a wrapper class). But the important is
that the resources saved will be invested in new functionalities (and to
move to a new form editor). We are trying to merge all customised versions
in one code and do customisation in a XML file. Some of those new options
are:

+ There are 3 turn on/off images with a modifiable opacity; image format
supported with our old TCPDF version: GD, GD2, GD2PART, GIF, JPEG, PNG,
BMP, XBM, XPM.
+ There are 5 turn on/off rectangles with round-able corners, fill-able
with colour, on/off borders.
+ There are 7 turn on/off lines with modifiable dot pattern.
+ There is a turn on/off text.

Those options are shown in the linked code. Today, the customisation in
quotation should be done inside the script as a pure hard-code. If you
compare current quotation with the quotation generated by this linked
script, you will see some differences:
+ more images (one as a transparent watermark);
+ rectangles filled with colour, with some rounded corners (not all
corners) and without border;
+ new lines with different dot patterns;
+ a new text as imprint.

To hide the above new elements, just modify from <display>yes</display> to
<display>no</display> in the XML file. I am working to include all
customisations (that I know) as options within the XML file.

If you use this liked script, remember to delete line 113 of
PDFQuotation.php when restoring. WARNING: do NOT use Form_Designer because
coordinates are from top-left to top-left . I think new Form_Designer
should be from top-left to top-left, responsible and with new elements.

Please, tel me know all your comments about this.

Best regards, Rafael.
