#PDFMerger for PHP (PHP 5 Compatible)

PDFMerger created by Jarrod Nettles December 2009 jarrod@squarecrow.com

Updated by Vasiliy Zaytsev February 2016 vasiliy.zaytsev@ffwagency.com

• Uses tcpdf 6.2.12 by Nicola Asuni
• Uses patched tcpdi_parser 1.0 by Paul Nicholls with own TCPdiParserException
• Uses TCPDI 1.0 by Paul Nicholls with FPDF_TPL extension 1.2.3 by Setasign

PHP 5 Compatible

I have made some changes in original codes to make PHPMerger compatible for PHP 5

Support of PDF 1.5 and PDF 1.6

FPDF and FPDI libraries replaced by TCPDF with TCPDI extension and parser.

Instalation

To install the library add the following line to your composer.json:

"hakimio/pdfmerger": "dev-master"

Example Usage

use hakimio\PDFMerger;

$pdf = new PDFMerger();

$pdf->addPDF('samplepdfs/one.pdf', '1, 3, 4');
$pdf->addPDF('samplepdfs/two.pdf', '1-2');
$pdf->addPDF('samplepdfs/three.pdf', 'all');

$pdf->setAuthor('sample author');
$pdf->setCreator('a sample creator');
$pdf->setSubject('Merged Attachments');
$pdf->setKeywords('some sample keywords');

$pdf->merge('file', 'samplepdfs/TEST2.pdf'); // generate the file

// REPLACE 'file' WITH 'browser', 'download', 'string', or 'file' for output options
