to be honest,, there are no simple script. specially pdf format is
page oriented and web is flat(single page). that's why when flat data
divided into pages there are a huge possibilities of some contents
break horizontally and be in two subsequent pdf pages.
so far i remember dompdf and fpdf are two pdf generator from php. and
fpdf is better then dom.
i am sure you will get both examples using google search easily. here
is my working example what might help you:
define("FPDF_FONTPATH", "../fpdf/font/");
$pdf=new FPDF("P","mm","custom");
// [CONFIGURATION VARIABLES]
$per_page = 8; //number of results per page
$columns = 2;
$row_per_cell = 5; //currently we have only label_text
$column_space = 5; //Space between columns
$cell_width = 101.6; //Original 66.7+1.55; cell width(for all cell)
$single_cell_height = 34; //Original 5.08; cell height(for all cell)
$top_margin = 22.35; //top margin default: 1,27cm / 12.7 22.35=0.88 inc
$left_margin = 15.25; //Left margin (for all) default:4.8
//TOTAL FROM SQL
$tot = count($Labels); ////$tot = 60;
$counter=0;
//CALCULATES HOW MANY PAGES WILL BE NECESSARY
$pages = ceil($tot/$per_page);
$lines = ceil($per_page/$columns);
//START VARS
$actual_line = 0;
$beginning = 0;
$cell_complete =0; //Added by Sumon
for($x=1; $x<=$pages; $x++) //PAGES
{
//VERIFY
$beginning = $actual_line;
$end = $actual_line + $per_page;
if($end > $tot) $end = $tot;
//CONFIG VARIABLES
$y = $top_margin; //top margin default: 1,27cm / 12.7 22.35=0.88 inc
$x_cor = $left_margin; //Left margin (for all) default:4.8
$cell_height = $single_cell_height/$row_per_cell; //As though later
$row_per_cell multiplied.
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->SetFont('Times','',10);
for($l=0;$l<$lines;$l++) //makes 7 lines
{
$x_pos = $x_cor;
for($k=1;$k<=$columns;$k++) //make $columns columns
{
if($counter>=$tot) break;
$LabelInfo=$Labels[$counter++];
$pdf->SetXY($x_pos,$y);
$pdf->MultiCell($cell_width, $cell_height ,
$LabelInfo['details']."\n".$LabelInfo['appartment']."\n".$LabelInfo['city']."\n".$LabelInfo['province']."\n".$LabelInfo['zip_code'],
1,'C');
$x_pos = $x_pos+$cell_width+$column_space;
}
$y=$y+$cell_height*$row_per_cell; //adds label actual position.
$pdf->SetAutoPageBreak('on','12.7');
}
$actual_line++;
}//CLOSES FOR(PAGES - x)
$pdf->Output("pdf_files/output.pdf","F");
