[WebERP-developers] SelectProduct.php. Decimal places for the gross profit.

[Rafael C. <raf...@gm...>]

Hi all,

In SelectProduct.php, we had the decimal places of gross profit fixed to
ONE decimal. I changed to the number of decimal places for the default
currency.

My goal: We want to have 2 decimals for the gross profit, or to change it
at will.

Tim wrote me that in Uganda where there are about 4500 shillings to the
pound, it makes sense to have currency figure with zero decimal places but
they want to see the gross profit percentage with some decimal places.

So, to fix this, we can:
1. Reverse change: That is, to use "1" instead of
"$_SESSION['CompanyRecord']['decimalplaces']" (as previous version).
2. If enough people are interested in change at will the quantity of
decimal places for the gross profit, to add a parameter to set-up this.

Let me know if you are interested on (2). Otherwise I will work on (1).

Best regards, Rafael.

[WebERP-developers] Statement of cash flows.

[Rafael C. <raf...@gm...>]

Hi,

Any of you have worked to show a statement of cash flows of the company for
a range of periods entered ?

I am looking for a general purpose script to generate a statement of cash
flows.

Jonathan Kiranga has developed that module in another application, that ran
on vfp FoxPro but not in webERP.

In this moment, I have two groups of requirements very different:
* Accounting people: They want periods in months (at end-of-month, by group
of months) like other statements in webERP (statement of financial
position, and statement of comprehensive income), and a net use and
generation (each account shown as cash-in or a cash-out).
* Treasury and Audit people: They want periods in days (at end-of-day, by
group of days) and a separated use and generation (for each account, the
cash generated and the cash used in different lines).

I will appreciate any info, comment or help about this topic.

Best regards, Rafael.

Re: [WebERP-developers] Statement of changes in equity.

[Rafael C. <raf...@gm...>]

Hi Jonathan,

Thank you for you answer.

I am working on both:
* "The statement of changes in equity, often referred to as statement of
retained earnings, details the change in owners' equity over an accounting
period by presenting the movement in reserves comprising the shareholders'
equity. The purpose of the statement of changes in equity is to show the
changes in a company's retained earnings during the period being
reported."
* "The statement of cash flows, also known as cash flow statement, reports
how changes in balance sheet accounts and income affect cash and cash
equivalents, and breaks the analysis down to operating, investing and
financing activities. The purpose of the statement of cash flows is to show
whether the company generated and used cash during the period being
reported."

( I enclosed the draft text from div class="page_help_text" of scripts;
help appreciated! ).

In this moment, the script for the statement of changes in equity seems to
have less requirements than the script for statement of cash
flows.Therefore, I decided to work on it first.

Some time ago I do not work in FoxPro, but any help is appreciated.

Best regards, Rafael.

[WebERP-developers] Print label repeatedly and More than one TAX for a Purchase Order

[baliboss <it...@ba...>]

Dear Phil, Tim and webERP user,

I want to ask, 

1. Can I print bar code repeatedly just for one item code without click
Button "Print Labels" again and again ?

2. How to define TAX for a Purchase Order more than one and total of it be
created as standard costing for this item 

but this TAX not to supplier?

example : Price of Item *FB101 1000 USD* and contain TAX like the following
line,
- Bea Masuk 5 %
- PPN           10 %
- Cukai         10 %
- pph              2,5%
--------------------------+
(details TAX pay as TAX not pay to suppliers)

Even I also got this float accuracy problem when I solve my accounts queries!
I am going to clear my doubt from Professor  Aloke Ghosh
<https://www.linkedin.com/pub/al-aloke-ghosh-ph-d/7/75a/9ba>  , as I heard
he clear everything in detail as no one can forget that in future. I wish he

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Andrew G. <aga...@re...>]

This fixed my issue:

Replace

$c=$s[$I};

with



$c=mb_substr($s, $i, 1, 'UTF-8');



Thanks so MUCH!

Hi Andrew:

Yes, AddTextWrap() is a nightmare. Besides the bugs I mentioned, there are other things that can create problems:

- $s{$i} and $s[$i] are not multi-byte safe. It is better to use: mb_substr($s, $i, 1, 'UTF-8'), with encoding included.

- Instead of $nb=mb_strlen($s), it is better to use $nb=mb_strlen($s, 'UTF-8'), with encoding included.

- Depending on PHP version, mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8') does not work as expected. Also other multi-byte functions (mb_substr, mb_strlen) do not work properly. See (as example): http://php.net/ChangeLog-5.php version 5.4.8 release notes.

I suggest you --if you want to keep this AddTextWrap()-- to replace all functions with multi-byte safe functions and to update php version (get late fixes to mb functions).

Best regards, Rafael.


2015-02-17 12:54 GMT-06:00 Andrew Galuski <aga...@re...<mailto:aga...@re...>>:
My problem is actually that the variable $nb is set to mb_strlen($s);.  Since the  ® character is counted as 1 by mb_strlen nb ends up being 1 less than the actual string length. So when I iterate while $i<$nb I always end up with a break if I have a multibyte character in the string (even though it is short enough to fit).

If I change to $nb=iconv_strlen($s); then $nb is equal to the actual string length and I fit on 1 line (but I no longer get the extra line after.  I do get the extra line after if no multi-byte characters are in the string.

I think I have been on this too long.

Hi Andrew,

Sorry, just I read you messages.

Yes, as I said in previous messages, this new AddTextWrap fixes the extra blank line bug. But if any user like this extra blank line bug, there is lot of work adding a extra line to reports.

About the problem with your text:

I think the text does not wrap because it is using a non-breaking space character instead of a white space character.

A possible fix:

$nbsp = html_entity_decode('&nbsp;', ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');// Converts non-breaking space HTML entity to their applicable character.
$text = str_replace($nbsp,' ',$text);

Best regards, Rafael.

2015-02-13 13:53 GMT-06:00 Rafael Chacón <raf...@gm...<mailto:raf...@gm...>>:
Hi,

I enclose a uptdate to new addTextWrap.

Changes:
1. Sets encoding 'UTF-8' in all multi-byte functions.
2. Adds the replace of '\n' text with a line feed character. This is to fix the possible introduction of a '\n' text instead of a line feed character.
3. Adds the delete of '\r' text. This is to fix the possible introduction of a '\r' text instead of a carriage return character.
4. Replaces hard hypen with soft hyphen as possible break position.
5. Privileges the use of mb_substr() instead of $text{$i} (deprecated? not multi-byte safe?) and $text[$i] (not multi-byte safe?).
6. Uses "greater than or equal to" comparison instead of "greater than" to cover the possibility of exact matches to exit for() loop.
7. Uses "less than or equal to" comparison instead of "less than" to cover the possibility of exact matches to exit for() loop.
8. Excludes the break character from the returned string.
9. Improves documentation and formatting.

Best regards, Rafael.

Actually.
My issue seems to be with special characters.  Any help is appreciated.  I can’t seem to figure out why.
This Doesn’t Wrap on the invoice
TEST trademark ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

This does wrap (Much Shorter but Trademark sign inside of it). I don’t want it to wrap.
TEST ® ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

I can make 1 modification that fixes it but I am unsure why it is needed and again not sure of what else it will affect.
Original code line 293 ‘while($i<$nb)’
This code fixes it ‘while($i<=$nb)’

where
‘$nb=mb_strlen($s);’

Ideas?

Hi Andrew,

I enclose my new AddTextWrap. Inside ~/includes/class.pdf.php, replace AddTextWrap lines (80-169) with lines 3-66 of the included file.

Comments:
* I'm testing with last version of Nicola Asuni's TCPDF.
* It is possible to replace line 56 ("$textwidth += $this->GetStringWidth($c);") with two lines. Those two lines makes the function a little faster in some cases ($text width near the cell width), but slower in other cases ($text width far from the cell width).

Best regards, Rafael.

If you can send me your update I will test it in my environment for all my forms.

Hi Vitaly,

Thank you for writing.

About "$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));": This line returns an array of strings, each of which is a substring of $myrow2['narrative'] formed by splitting it on boundaries formed by the characters Carriage_Return ("\r") and Line_Feed ("\n"). It only works for msWindows (Unix-like and Mac OS-10 use Line_Feed;  Mac OS up to version 9 uses Carriage_Return).

The problem in PrintCustTransPortrait.php (and other reports) is caused by two bugs in AddTextWarp():

1. Line 108: "$s = trim($s).' ';" (extra blank character -> the extra white line).
2. Lines from 106 to 164: (the logic of the code -> splitting in the last white_space of a segment smaller that the cell width).

My purpose in asking if someone "has problem with this function (last line line-feeded before the end) ?" is know who else experiences that problem.

I have a new AddTextWrap that fixes both bugs. It is faster and produces PDF files with a slightly smaller size, but --obviously-- it not produce the extra blank line in segments smaller than cell width. Many users like this (no extra blank line) but there are some users who ask me to re-do this extra blank line.

I would like other people tests this new AddTextWrap. Although this extra blank line is a bug, I am not comfortable with the idea of a potential change in actual reports.

Best regards, Rafael.

Rafael,

The addTextWrap() does not split the line like that. It is done by this function
$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));

in PrintCustTransPortrait.php

HI Phil,

Thank you for your answer.

Topic 1: From R&OS -> FPDF -> TCPDF. For future pdf development, I think it will be better to directly use TCPDF: (a) Y-coordinate= instead of calculating as from page-bottom to cell-bottom and the script class.pdf.php translates to page-top to cell-top to use tcpdf.php, we can directly use page-top to cell-top and TCPDF; (b) TCPDF has interesting functions (writeHTML, writeHTMLCell, etc.) to write code html (a screen report) into a pdf.

Topic 2: tcpdf 6.2.6 has new fonts and others.They may be helpful to give more options to reports.

Topic 3: With PrintCustTransPortrait.php (and other reports) I have unexpected breaks (see enclose) and prints lines with whitespace. The problems are inside AddTextWarp().

Yes originally used R & OS pdf library.
Moved to Oliver Plathey FPDF http://www.fpdf.org/
The class.pdf.php was created to allow the transition to FPDF
 ... then to TCPDF which was a development of FPDF which allowed utf-8 pdfs - using CID fonts rather than embedding a large monster font file into each pdf - so a small 10k report becomes 2 Meg. This was not considered acceptable.

1. webERP begun using PHP Pdf creation - R&OS (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdf-php/). Then, webERP moved to TCPDF (http://www.tcpdf.org/). Javier de Lorenzo-Cáceres wrote ~/includes/class.pdf.php to use TCPDF with "PHP_Pdf_creation_-_R&OS syntax" (old code). Is it right?

2. Someone has updated the ~/includes/tcpdf folder with TCPDF version 6.2.6 ?

3. Someone has replaced the function AddTextWarp() or has problem with this function (last line line-feeded before the end) ?

Re: [WebERP-developers] RMA

[Phil D. <ph...@lo...>]

Hi Exson,

I am thinking the best solution for this is to add freight - as a 
service item -  to the RMA - so it can be recovered in the credit note 
required from the supplier. I don't think it is appropriate to revalue 
the stock including this freight cost as it is an expense and 
recoverable (hopefully) from the supplier.

*Hi, Phil,*

           Thank you for your efforts.

           I have a question about relative topic. How should we handle the
related shipment charge? For instance, we have allocated shipment charge to
items shipped, the if we return those items to suppliers, do we need to
adjust cost of this part?

           Thanks and best regards!

           Exson

[WebERP-developers] RMA

[Phil D. <ph...@lo...>]

There are two parts to RMA - when we are returning goods to a 
supplier/vendor .... and the other side is when customers return goods 
to us :-(

I started on a spec for the former at

http://www.weberp.org/wiki/ReturnMerchandiseAuthorisation

appreciate any input - please add your 2c.

Thanks

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Phil D. <ph...@lo...>]

This sounds a nice contribution - probably we should expand on this. I 
think Tim's rationale makes good sense.

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Vitaly S. <vsh...@so...>]

Hi all,

Here some continuation on the printing adventures.
Tim suggested that some/most reports do not need to be rendered in PDF, 
but could be printed off the screen using Print button in the browser. 
To do that the layout of the page needs to be adjusted using a separate 
CSS file.
I have done a little research and created print.css file with the rules 
that apply only when the page is sent to the printer. It is done by 
specifying media="print" for the stylesheet.
The print.css hides the menus, header and the footer. In addition, 
anything that does not need to be printed, can be marked as class="noprint".

I modified the Balance Sheet, Income Statement and the Trial Balance to 
show how it is done.
The changes are in the trunk.

Hope you like it.

Vitaly


Hi,

Sorry by the delay, I was busy with an urgent invoice problem.

Tim: Thank you, very much, for the info about print stylesheets.
Vitaly: Thank you, very much, for the link.

Sounds interesting: write one code (report), generate to multiple media 
(outputs).
Also, no character encoding problems (using HTML entities instead) and 
can include rich format (HTML formatting tags).

I am thinking in:
(1) Make the code for all reports so that they are generated by a 
"screen" stylesheet to render the page in the browser window;
(2) In all reports include a button to print using a "print" stylesheet 
to render the page for a printer; and
(3) Create a print stylesheet "print.css";
(4) Re-create a Form Designer to modify the the main cascading style 
sheet (CSS for screen).

I agree that quotations and invoices are special cases. I need to 
generate PDFs to be sent by email. In this case, if no way, I prefer to 
use TCPDF (including generate barcodes).

Best regards, Rafael.

    There is some guides on Internet on how to set up the print css. For
    example this one.
    http://www.webcredible.com/blog-reports/css/print-stylesheet.shtml

    I will try it here to see what I will get.

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Rafael C. <raf...@gm...>]

Hi Andrew:

Yes, AddTextWrap() is a nightmare. Besides the bugs I mentioned, there are
other things that can create problems:

- $s{$i} and $s[$i] are not multi-byte safe. It is better to use:
mb_substr($s, $i, 1, 'UTF-8'), with encoding included.

- Instead of $nb=mb_strlen($s), it is better to use $nb=mb_strlen($s,
'UTF-8'), with encoding included.

- Depending on PHP version, mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8') does not work as
expected. Also other multi-byte functions (mb_substr, mb_strlen) do not
work properly. See (as example): http://php.net/ChangeLog-5.php version
5.4.8 release notes.

I suggest you --if you want to keep this AddTextWrap()-- to replace all
functions with multi-byte safe functions and to update php version (get
late fixes to mb functions).

Best regards, Rafael.

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Andrew G. <aga...@re...>]

My problem is actually that the variable $nb is set to mb_strlen($s);.  Since the  ® character is counted as 1 by mb_strlen nb ends up being 1 less than the actual string length. So when I iterate while $i<$nb I always end up with a break if I have a multibyte character in the string (even though it is short enough to fit).

If I change to $nb=iconv_strlen($s); then $nb is equal to the actual string length and I fit on 1 line (but I no longer get the extra line after.  I do get the extra line after if no multi-byte characters are in the string.

I think I have been on this too long.

Hi Andrew,

Sorry, just I read you messages.

Yes, as I said in previous messages, this new AddTextWrap fixes the extra blank line bug. But if any user like this extra blank line bug, there is lot of work adding a extra line to reports.

About the problem with your text:

I think the text does not wrap because it is using a non-breaking space character instead of a white space character.

A possible fix:

$nbsp = html_entity_decode('&nbsp;', ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');// Converts non-breaking space HTML entity to their applicable character.
$text = str_replace($nbsp,' ',$text);

Best regards, Rafael.

Hi,

I enclose a uptdate to new addTextWrap.

Changes:
1. Sets encoding 'UTF-8' in all multi-byte functions.
2. Adds the replace of '\n' text with a line feed character. This is to fix the possible introduction of a '\n' text instead of a line feed character.
3. Adds the delete of '\r' text. This is to fix the possible introduction of a '\r' text instead of a carriage return character.
4. Replaces hard hypen with soft hyphen as possible break position.
5. Privileges the use of mb_substr() instead of $text{$i} (deprecated? not multi-byte safe?) and $text[$i] (not multi-byte safe?).
6. Uses "greater than or equal to" comparison instead of "greater than" to cover the possibility of exact matches to exit for() loop.
7. Uses "less than or equal to" comparison instead of "less than" to cover the possibility of exact matches to exit for() loop.
8. Excludes the break character from the returned string.
9. Improves documentation and formatting.

Best regards, Rafael.

Actually.
My issue seems to be with special characters.  Any help is appreciated.  I can’t seem to figure out why.
This Doesn’t Wrap on the invoice
TEST trademark ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

This does wrap (Much Shorter but Trademark sign inside of it). I don’t want it to wrap.
TEST ® ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

I can make 1 modification that fixes it but I am unsure why it is needed and again not sure of what else it will affect.
Original code line 293 ‘while($i<$nb)’
This code fixes it ‘while($i<=$nb)’

where
‘$nb=mb_strlen($s);’

Ideas?

The missing spaces would make me have to alter too many forms I believe but it is nice work.
I think locally I can fix my issue with another small change.

Hi Andrew,

I enclose my new AddTextWrap. Inside ~/includes/class.pdf.php, replace AddTextWrap lines (80-169) with lines 3-66 of the included file.

Comments:
* I'm testing with last version of Nicola Asuni's TCPDF.
* It is possible to replace line 56 ("$textwidth += $this->GetStringWidth($c);") with two lines. Those two lines makes the function a little faster in some cases ($text width near the cell width), but slower in other cases ($text width far from the cell width).

Best regards, Rafael.

I am trouble shooting the same problem today where it wraps text smaller than the width‎. The added $s = trim($s).' ';" causes an issue for me. Or you can change a do while loop from < to <= $nb and it appears to fix same issue. My worry was testing all existing forms. If you can send me your update I will test it in my environment for all my forms.

Hi Vitaly,

Thank you for writing.

About "$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));": This line returns an array of strings, each of which is a substring of $myrow2['narrative'] formed by splitting it on boundaries formed by the characters Carriage_Return ("\r") and Line_Feed ("\n"). It only works for msWindows (Unix-like and Mac OS-10 use Line_Feed;  Mac OS up to version 9 uses Carriage_Return).

The problem in PrintCustTransPortrait.php (and other reports) is caused by two bugs in AddTextWarp():

1. Line 108: "$s = trim($s).' ';" (extra blank character -> the extra white line).
2. Lines from 106 to 164: (the logic of the code -> splitting in the last white_space of a segment smaller that the cell width).

My purpose in asking if someone "has problem with this function (last line line-feeded before the end) ?" is know who else experiences that problem.

I have a new AddTextWrap that fixes both bugs. It is faster and produces PDF files with a slightly smaller size, but --obviously-- it not produce the extra blank line in segments smaller than cell width. Many users like this (no extra blank line) but there are some users who ask me to re-do this extra blank line.

I would like other people tests this new AddTextWrap. Although this extra blank line is a bug, I am not comfortable with the idea of a potential change in actual reports.

Best regards, Rafael.

2015-02-11 8:25 GMT-06:00 Vitaly Shevkunov <vsh...@so...<mailto:vsh...@so...>>:
Rafael,

The addTextWrap() does not split the line like that. It is done by this function
$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));

in PrintCustTransPortrait.php

HI Phil,

Thank you for your answer.

Topic 1: From R&OS -> FPDF -> TCPDF. For future pdf development, I think it will be better to directly use TCPDF: (a) Y-coordinate= instead of calculating as from page-bottom to cell-bottom and the script class.pdf.php translates to page-top to cell-top to use tcpdf.php, we can directly use page-top to cell-top and TCPDF; (b) TCPDF has interesting functions (writeHTML, writeHTMLCell, etc.) to write code html (a screen report) into a pdf.

Topic 2: tcpdf 6.2.6 has new fonts and others.They may be helpful to give more options to reports.

Topic 3: With PrintCustTransPortrait.php (and other reports) I have unexpected breaks (see enclose) and prints lines with whitespace. The problems are inside AddTextWarp().

Re: [WebERP-developers] For Consideration Added qrcode for part labeling.

[gilberto d. s. a. <gs...@gm...>]

Today i have make tests on label.php on weberp.org and downloaded and
install new environment with weberp 4.12.2. Im my testes labels.php nor
PDFPrintLabel.php have worked.

Anyone already used on production this functions with sucess? inside this
or old versions of weberp?

Standard procedures and forms to labels have 3 columns for labels on a
roll. (rolo em portugues) or a4 / letter layout.

How could we increment alternatives for weberp users print barcode, qrcode?

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Rafael C. <raf...@gm...>]

Hi Vitaly,

I am happy that this code helps you.

About putting the $fill parameter back: I think it is possible, but we need
help. I explain myself:
* In ~/includes/class.pdf.php, in function AddTextWrap(), there are two
additional parameters: $border and $fill. $border is "translated" to 'LTRB'
and sets two variables: $b and $b2; but $border and $b2 are not used to
produce any output. Also $fill do not produce any output (only is mentioned
in the argument list).
* In R&OS there are two other parameters: $angle and $test. Those
parameters have no relation with $border and $fill. We just copy for
compatibility.
* R&OS deletes addTextWrap() in version 0.12.2 and recommends to "use
addText instead". The version we have has a little documentation ($test =
"need to store the initial text state, as this will change during the width
calculation but will need to be re-set before printing, so that the chars
work out right").

We are assuming that $border and $fill were included in
~/includes/class.pdf.php with the same purpose they have in
~/includes/tcpdf/tcpdf.php. For compatibility purposes, We leave $angle and
$test as they are in original R&OS's AddTextWrap() function. We add $border
and $fill as they are in original Nicola Asuni's TCPDF library. I enclose
this update.

Here, the direct use of Nicola Asuni's TCPDF library is preferred. I agree
with that those functions have more features and the scripts will be
faster, but I am not sure about implications of this for users (e.g. fixing
the extra blank line bug).

Best regards, Rafael.

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Vitaly S. <vsh...@so...>]

Hi Rafael,

I applied your updated function to my code and started testing. So far I 
like it very much. I does everything that I expected that function to do 
in the first place. I found some problems in some of my forms, but not 
too many. All of them due to my hacking, trying to get that function to 
do what it was not doing before.
The only change I would make is to put the $fill parameter back. It is a 
very useful feature for me.

Thank you very much

Vitaly

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Rafael C. <raf...@gm...>]

Hi Andrew,

Sorry, just I read you messages.

Yes, as I said in previous messages, this new AddTextWrap fixes the extra
blank line bug. But if any user like this extra blank line bug, there is
lot of work adding a extra line to reports.

About the problem with your text:

I think the text does not wrap because it is using a non-breaking space
character instead of a white space character.

A possible fix:

$nbsp = html_entity_decode(' ', ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');// Converts
non-breaking space HTML entity to their applicable character.
$text = str_replace($nbsp,' ',$text);

Best regards, Rafael.

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Andrew G. <aga...@re...>]

Thank you.  I was hoping to be able to fix my existing version although if I pointed out a small issue with your new version you were able to fix I think that is good too.
I will try the new version again however if blank spaces are gone I will not be able to use it, too much places to go add extra lines back in for readability.

Hi,

I enclose a uptdate to new addTextWrap.

Changes:
1. Sets encoding 'UTF-8' in all multi-byte functions.
2. Adds the replace of '\n' text with a line feed character. This is to fix the possible introduction of a '\n' text instead of a line feed character.
3. Adds the delete of '\r' text. This is to fix the possible introduction of a '\r' text instead of a carriage return character.
4. Replaces hard hypen with soft hyphen as possible break position.
5. Privileges the use of mb_substr() instead of $text{$i} (deprecated? not multi-byte safe?) and $text[$i] (not multi-byte safe?).
6. Uses "greater than or equal to" comparison instead of "greater than" to cover the possibility of exact matches to exit for() loop.
7. Uses "less than or equal to" comparison instead of "less than" to cover the possibility of exact matches to exit for() loop.
8. Excludes the break character from the returned string.
9. Improves documentation and formatting.

Best regards, Rafael.

Actually.
My issue seems to be with special characters.  Any help is appreciated.  I can’t seem to figure out why.
This Doesn’t Wrap on the invoice
TEST trademark ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

This does wrap (Much Shorter but Trademark sign inside of it). I don’t want it to wrap.
TEST ® ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

I can make 1 modification that fixes it but I am unsure why it is needed and again not sure of what else it will affect.
Original code line 293 ‘while($i<$nb)’
This code fixes it ‘while($i<=$nb)’

where
‘$nb=mb_strlen($s);’

Ideas?

Hi Andrew,

I enclose my new AddTextWrap. Inside ~/includes/class.pdf.php, replace AddTextWrap lines (80-169) with lines 3-66 of the included file.

Comments:
* I'm testing with last version of Nicola Asuni's TCPDF.
* It is possible to replace line 56 ("$textwidth += $this->GetStringWidth($c);") with two lines. Those two lines makes the function a little faster in some cases ($text width near the cell width), but slower in other cases ($text width far from the cell width).

Best regards, Rafael.

I am trouble shooting the same problem today where it wraps text smaller than the width‎. The added $s = trim($s).' ';" causes an issue for me. Or you can change a do while loop from < to <= $nb and it appears to fix same issue. My worry was testing all existing forms. If you can send me your update I will test it in my environment for all my forms.

Hi Vitaly,

Thank you for writing.

About "$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));": This line returns an array of strings, each of which is a substring of $myrow2['narrative'] formed by splitting it on boundaries formed by the characters Carriage_Return ("\r") and Line_Feed ("\n"). It only works for msWindows (Unix-like and Mac OS-10 use Line_Feed;  Mac OS up to version 9 uses Carriage_Return).

The problem in PrintCustTransPortrait.php (and other reports) is caused by two bugs in AddTextWarp():

1. Line 108: "$s = trim($s).' ';" (extra blank character -> the extra white line).
2. Lines from 106 to 164: (the logic of the code -> splitting in the last white_space of a segment smaller that the cell width).

My purpose in asking if someone "has problem with this function (last line line-feeded before the end) ?" is know who else experiences that problem.

I have a new AddTextWrap that fixes both bugs. It is faster and produces PDF files with a slightly smaller size, but --obviously-- it not produce the extra blank line in segments smaller than cell width. Many users like this (no extra blank line) but there are some users who ask me to re-do this extra blank line.

I would like other people tests this new AddTextWrap. Although this extra blank line is a bug, I am not comfortable with the idea of a potential change in actual reports.

Best regards, Rafael.

Rafael,

The addTextWrap() does not split the line like that. It is done by this function
$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));

in PrintCustTransPortrait.php

Topic 2: tcpdf 6.2.6 has new fonts and others.They may be helpful to give more options to reports.

Re: [WebERP-developers] PDF generator in webERP.

[Andrew G. <aga...@re...>]

Actually.
My issue seems to be with special characters.  Any help is appreciated.  I can’t seem to figure out why.
This Doesn’t Wrap on the invoice
TEST trademark ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

This does wrap (Much Shorter but Trademark sign inside of it). I don’t want it to wrap.
TEST ® ABC P-1700 CL 2612MPC

I can make 1 modification that fixes it but I am unsure why it is needed and again not sure of what else it will affect.
Original code line 293 ‘while($i<$nb)’
This code fixes it ‘while($i<=$nb)’

where
‘$nb=mb_strlen($s);’

Ideas?

The missing spaces would make me have to alter too many forms I believe but it is nice work.
I think locally I can fix my issue with another small change.

Hi Andrew,

I enclose my new AddTextWrap. Inside ~/includes/class.pdf.php, replace AddTextWrap lines (80-169) with lines 3-66 of the included file.

Comments:
* I'm testing with last version of Nicola Asuni's TCPDF.
* It is possible to replace line 56 ("$textwidth += $this->GetStringWidth($c);") with two lines. Those two lines makes the function a little faster in some cases ($text width near the cell width), but slower in other cases ($text width far from the cell width).

Best regards, Rafael.

I am trouble shooting the same problem today where it wraps text smaller than the width‎. The added $s = trim($s).' ';" causes an issue for me. Or you can change a do while loop from < to <= $nb and it appears to fix same issue. My worry was testing all existing forms. If you can send me your update I will test it in my environment for all my forms.

Hi Vitaly,

Thank you for writing.

About "$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));": This line returns an array of strings, each of which is a substring of $myrow2['narrative'] formed by splitting it on boundaries formed by the characters Carriage_Return ("\r") and Line_Feed ("\n"). It only works for msWindows (Unix-like and Mac OS-10 use Line_Feed;  Mac OS up to version 9 uses Carriage_Return).

The problem in PrintCustTransPortrait.php (and other reports) is caused by two bugs in AddTextWarp():

1. Line 108: "$s = trim($s).' ';" (extra blank character -> the extra white line).
2. Lines from 106 to 164: (the logic of the code -> splitting in the last white_space of a segment smaller that the cell width).

My purpose in asking if someone "has problem with this function (last line line-feeded before the end) ?" is know who else experiences that problem.

I have a new AddTextWrap that fixes both bugs. It is faster and produces PDF files with a slightly smaller size, but --obviously-- it not produce the extra blank line in segments smaller than cell width. Many users like this (no extra blank line) but there are some users who ask me to re-do this extra blank line.

I would like other people tests this new AddTextWrap. Although this extra blank line is a bug, I am not comfortable with the idea of a potential change in actual reports.

Best regards, Rafael.

Rafael,

The addTextWrap() does not split the line like that. It is done by this function
$lines=explode("\r\n",htmlspecialchars_decode($myrow2['narrative']));

in PrintCustTransPortrait.php

HI Phil,

Thank you for your answer.

Topic 1: From R&OS -> FPDF -> TCPDF. For future pdf development, I think it will be better to directly use TCPDF: (a) Y-coordinate= instead of calculating as from page-bottom to cell-bottom and the script class.pdf.php translates to page-top to cell-top to use tcpdf.php, we can directly use page-top to cell-top and TCPDF; (b) TCPDF has interesting functions (writeHTML, writeHTMLCell, etc.) to write code html (a screen report) into a pdf.

Topic 2: tcpdf 6.2.6 has new fonts and others.They may be helpful to give more options to reports.

Topic 3: With PrintCustTransPortrait.php (and other reports) I have unexpected breaks (see enclose) and prints lines with whitespace. The problems are inside AddTextWarp().

Yes originally used R & OS pdf library.
Moved to Oliver Plathey FPDF http://www.fpdf.org/
The class.pdf.php was created to allow the transition to FPDF
 ... then to TCPDF which was a development of FPDF which allowed utf-8 pdfs - using CID fonts rather than embedding a large monster font file into each pdf - so a small 10k report becomes 2 Meg. This was not considered acceptable.
I update tcpdf from time to time.

Not sure about 3.

Hi,

Some questions:

1. webERP begun using PHP Pdf creation - R&OS (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdf-php/). Then, webERP moved to TCPDF (http://www.tcpdf.org/). Javier de Lorenzo-Cáceres wrote ~/includes/class.pdf.php to use TCPDF with "PHP_Pdf_creation_-_R&OS syntax" (old code). Is it right?

2. Someone has updated the ~/includes/tcpdf folder with TCPDF version 6.2.6 ?

3. Someone has replaced the function AddTextWarp() or has problem with this function (last line line-feeded before the end) ?

Best regards, Rafael.
