Using [FPDF](http://www.fpdf.org/) made easy with Laravel. See [FPDF homepage](http://www.fpdf.org/) for more information about the usage.

## Installation using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/)

```sh
composer require codedge/laravel-fpdf
```

## Configuration

Run  
`php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Codedge\Fpdf\FpdfServiceProvider" --tag=config`  
to publish the configuration file to `config/fpdf.php`.

## Usage

```php
// app/Http/routes.php | app/routes/web.php

Route::get('/', function (Codedge\Fpdf\Fpdf\Fpdf $fpdf) {

    $fpdf->AddPage();
    $fpdf->SetFont('Courier', 'B', 18);
    $fpdf->Cell(50, 25, 'Hello World!');
    $fpdf->Output();
    exit;

});
```

### Defining fonts

FPDF comes with a set of fonts already defined and stored in the `src/Fpdf/font` directory.
If you want to add your own font, please have a look at the [Adding new fonts and encodings](http://www.fpdf.org/en/tutorial/tuto7.htm) tutorial.

You can change the font path, by using the `FPDF_FONTPATH` environment variable.

## Use in Laravel Vapor

If you want to use [Laravel Vapor](https://vapor.laravel.com) to host your application,
[a special header](https://docs.vapor.build/1.0/projects/development.html#binary-responses) needs to be attached to each response that FPDF returns to your browser.
To enable the use of this header, add the following environment variable to the Vapor environment file:

```dotenv
FPDF_VAPOR_HEADERS=true
```
