I'm currently running mikehaertl/phpwkhtmltopdf package to convert HTML to PDF. Using the demo data I appear to be having issues with the PDF rendering the correct page dimensions. I need the page to be filled with an A4 layout, but I'm getting a much smaller resolution output for some reason. I believe there is either a setting I'm not aware of or I'm missing something in the HTML/CSS?
The PHP I am running is:
$pdf = new mikehaertl\wkhtmlto\Pdf(
array(
'binary' => '/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf',
'no-outline', // Make Chrome not complain
'margin-top' => 0,
'margin-right' => 0,
'margin-bottom' => 0,
'margin-left' => 0,
// Default page options
'disable-smart-shrinking'
)
);
$pdf->addPage($this->getOrderPrint($objectId));
// Save the PDF
$pdf->saveAs(dirname(__FILE__).'/test.pdf');
The getOrderPrint method is correctly returnin the below HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 21cm;
height: 29.7cm;
}
/* Printable area */
#print-area {
position: relative;
top: 1cm;
left: 1cm;
width: 19cm;
height: 27.6cm;
font-size: 10px;
font-family: Arial;
}
#header {
height: 3cm;
background: #ccc;
}
#footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 3cm;
background: #ccc;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="print-area">
<div id="header">
This is an example headernbmv.
</div>
<div id="content">
<h1>Demo</h1>
<p>This is example content</p>
</div>
<div id="footer">
This is an example footer.
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Try to add
'page-size' => 'A4'to your wkhtmltopdf options.
