post2pdf

Published by antonello

Wordpress pluginHello here you can find detailed

information about this post2pdf plugin and instructions on its

installation and customization.

Description:

What does this plugin do? It converts all your posts, pages and categories in pdf documents ready to download on the fly,you don’t need any particular application installed on your server or php extensions, all you need (is love…) is the plugin unzipped in your plugin directory and then activated in Plugin tab!

In current version, only a small subset of html tags are supported, and in some cases it doesn’t render the document in a very good shape…

In the new version 0.4 you can find a configuration file where you can decide the default export action (on/off) and the default category exportation action (on/off) and a lot of old and new features.

Tag currently supported are:

img, a, b, i, li, code, em, pre, strong, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, brtable, tr, td

and images are restricted to jpg and png format, so don’t expect too much, please.

This plugin is based on a pdf conversion class written by me and built on fpdf library.

As soon as possible i will post also the pdf class and so you can read more about it and more about customization, at this moment few customizations are available for the plugin.

Installation:

  • Upload to your plugins folder, usually `wp-content/plugins/` and unzip it.
  • Activate the plugin on the plugin screen

Customization:

There are so few customization now, that it’s quite useless to list them, but here there are the most important:

  • Added a visual editor button
  • You can use the tag to exclude a particular post or page from the plugin, so you can select which pages and posts could be exported in you blog and which not.
    This tag could be placed in any places inside you post body.
  • There are currently two layout, you can use for exportation, you need to select one of them inside the generate.php file in the plugin directory, but of course you can leave the default choice.To make this choice you have to edit the $layout variable in the file setting it to 1 for the layout with chapter (this layout is the default one, but it is intended for future use when entire archive, containing several posts, could be exported), or 2 for the single page layout.
  • Editing file config.inc.php you can change html code for export button, change the default exclude tag () and the default export tag (), and setting the default export action for posts to true or false.
    If setted to true, all your posts are exported by default and you can decide which once you don’t want to export, otherwise if setted to false, you can decide which posts you want to export by simply inserting the export tag.
  • Using in a post body, you can now place the export button wherever you want!

Special thanks:

I wanna give a special thank to Andreas Vdovkin who gave me the code snippet to convert utf8 charset to iso, to Enrico Ladogana who gave me a suggest for html code validation, and to Claudio Iannotta who gave me some bug report and code suggestion, and finally I wanna thank each person who have commented and will comment on this plugin, your ideas folks are gold for me!

    Love your plugin.
    But only one question: How can I position the icon to my sidebar? At the correct position in sidebar I inserted the code , but the icon is still shown at the end of the post.

  4. Timoon 26 Jan 2007 at 3:48 am

    By the way, another question: Is there a way to print the comments, to?

  5. Ezzon 27 Jan 2007 at 11:50 am

    Can you convert this plugin to can put it alone like print plaugin like :

    Thanks

  6. antonelloon 28 Jan 2007 at 12:40 pm

    Hi Timo, you cannot place the icon on your sidebar until i release the new version of the plugin (currently testing) and you cannot, even with the new one, convert comments.

    With the new version you can convert categories too, so near the category name you will find the icon.

    The post2pdf_exclude tag doesn’t place any icon, it only exclude a post or a page, containing it, from pdf exportation.

  7. antonelloon 28 Jan 2007 at 12:47 pm

    Hi Ezz what do you mean with “alone print plugin”?

    As soon as possible I’m planning to release the pdf convertion class that is the kernel behind the post2pdf plugin, so with that one you can do everything you want.

  8. Ger Tielemanson 30 Jan 2007 at 10:54 am

    Very nice plugin, it only breaks on the questionmark in this link:

    Unfortunately it doesn’t work with my site. You see, all of my native language characters are displayed as ???

  10. antonelloon 07 Feb 2007 at 7:35 pm

    I’m sorry M. Ömer Gölgeli, but i don’t think this could be a plugin problem, instead it’s more a fpdf library problem… are you sure you are using utf-8 or iso charset?

  11. bobon 09 Feb 2007 at 3:52 am

    Hello there…
    This is the plugin I needed for a project I`m working on.
    I tested it on WordPress 2.0.8, Windows Apache server, with PHP 5 and MySQL 5, and UTF-8.
    It`s working great but the greek characters are not but ????????????s.
    (I forgot to say it`s all in greek)
    I can only use utf8, for many reasons and i cant` get it to work…
    I will soon test it on linux but I don`t think that will work either…
    Any ideas?

  12. antonelloon 14 Feb 2007 at 12:26 pm

    Hi bob, I’m sorry for answering you only now, your problem doesn’t seem to be a plugin problem, but a fpdf library one, I’ve tested greek charset on my pc using both the fpdf library and the ufpdf library and it doesn’t work, I’m sorry.

    Antonello

  13. Italo Vignolion 19 Feb 2007 at 9:53 am

    How can I avoid receiving an email every time that someone converts a page into PDF? Thanks, Italo

  14. antonelloon 19 Feb 2007 at 11:28 am

    Hi Italo, you can do it in two ways.
    You can comment lines 21 and 61 in generate.php simply adding a double slash (//) at the beginning of each line, or you can download again the plugin with those parts already commented by me.

    Bye, Antonello

  15. Lynxon 25 Feb 2007 at 12:50 pm

    :(
    1. it’s no cyrillic support
    2. when click on export link, it’s generate a pdf file but for user it’s give as .php file, or just empty-extension file (when make export for Categories) :( ?!

  16. antonelloon 25 Feb 2007 at 5:47 pm

    Hi Lynx, for the extension problem, which kind of browser gives you such problem? I’ve tested this plugin with IE, Firefox and Safari and it works right on each one, for cyrillic support i’ll try to find a solution, but i can’t assure you nothing.

    If someone has a solution to upgrade charset support he is welcome…

  17. D4Eon 27 Feb 2007 at 10:31 pm

    Hi
    first of all nice job. But i have a *small* prob on my blog. I mean a nice “Internal Sever Error” if i click on generate pdf.
    Any idea?
    (I am italian too, if you think that’s better you can reply in italian too :-D )

  18. antonelloon 03 Mar 2007 at 12:57 pm

    Ciao D4E ho visto il tuo blog e a me funziona correttamente, hai già risolto il problema? In caso contrario contattami via mail e dammi una pagina che restituisce l’errore, e non dimenticare di dirmi con quale browser lo ottieni.

    Ciao Antonello

    p.s mi piace molto il tema grafico del tuo sito, complimenti, mi piacerebbe farlo simile sul mio.

  19. D4Eon 04 Mar 2007 at 2:15 am

    Ciao Antonello
    avevo risolto temporaneamente con un altro plugin, ma la formattazione che mi da non mi piaceva, inoltre il supporto alle GIF risulta essere “missing”.
    L’errore che ricevevo era un 500 Internal Server Error, me lo dava con safari. Essendo un errore server dubito che dipenda dal browser.
    Ti ringrazio per i coplimenti, il tema usato si chiama Misty Look che però è stato pesantissimamente modificato da me e da un altro schiavetto.

  20. Shaneon 17 Mar 2007 at 1:34 am

    Hi,

    How do I change the placement of the “Convert this to PDF” icon and text?

    Regards,
    Shane.

  21. antonelloon 21 Mar 2007 at 5:01 pm

    Hi Shane, you can change the look of this plugin simply changing the html code in lines 39 and 47 in post2pdf.php

    Bye
    Antonello

  22. JDon 11 Apr 2007 at 7:46 pm

    Antonello,

    Thanks for your great plugin. I am trying like Shane above to locate the link somewhere else on each post. I would like to be able to drop some php code where i want the link to appear. For instance on my blog http://www.sportech.info/ I would like it to appear in the Actions: line on each post next to Print This Post and Trackback. I am not very good with php code so any specific instructions you can give would be very helpful. I used your recommendation you gave to Shane but when I got to line 39 I had no idea what to do. The style of the link is fine, its the placement I would like to change.

    Thanks in advance!

  24. antonelloon 14 Apr 2007 at 6:10 pm

    Hi JD, unfortunately I don’t think you can do it in a simple way, you can just work on the css style, editing the style attribute in the span tag or adding a class attribute to the span tag contained in those line you have already seen.

    But for these king of editing I can only suggest you to make some tests (not on the real website).

    The good thing is that you give me an idea for future version… stay tuned! :-)

  25. M. Ömer Gölgelion 16 Apr 2007 at 1:00 pm

    Installed again, after a while with great expectations.

    It still doesn’t work and this time it doesn’t even download a proper PDF file. Only a file with the title of my website. That’s because my site and title is in Turkish though my coding is UTF-8, i take it. Am i right?

    This sounds very cool, but when clicking your own “convert this post to PDF”-link on this page, I only get a “Errore interno del server”-page.

    Further more, not a single one of the people commenting on this page here now seems to be using the plugin on their own pages? That always makes me think that they know something that I don’t. :)

    So without a working demo, I think I’ll wait.

  29. antonelloon 16 Apr 2007 at 8:25 pm

    Sorry guys it’s my own mistake :-(, now you can download the corrected version.

    JD it’s better if you contact me by email so we can discuss about your problem.

  39. Maximeon 19 Apr 2007 at 3:42 pm

    Antonello, complimentissimi per l’ottimo plugin. Solo che non riesco ad escludere la visualizzazione automatica della stringa di esportazione in PDF da tutte le pagine contemporaneamente, per includerla manualmente solo dove dico io… E’ possibile farlo? Ho provato a mettere il comando di esclusione direttamente dentro header.php o index.php ma senza alcun risultato di rilievo.

  40. antonelloon 19 Apr 2007 at 3:48 pm

    Ciao Maxime, grazie per i complimenti, purtroppo alla versione attuale non è possibile escludere il plugin da tutto e includerlo dove si vuole, al momento è pensato al contrario. Inoltre aggiungere il tag di esclusione in qualsiasi punto della pagina che non sia il body di un post non ha alcun effetto. Mi dispiace.

    Antonello

  41. Maximeon 19 Apr 2007 at 6:53 pm

    Però se tu riuscissi ad implementare una funzione del genere, credo che sarebbe comodissima, anche perché allo stato attuale il bottone compare alla fine del post e non è possibile farlo stare accanto agli altri meta data… ;)

    hi antonello,

    thank you for your wonderful plugin, I installed it in my old blog and it worked right away. Now I moved to a new server, installed again, but I get this error:

    FPDF error: Could not include font metric file

    I searched the web for an answer, there are tons of FPDF postings, but not in relationship to Wordpress.

    Thank you so much for a reply,
    karl.

  45. Karlon 29 Apr 2007 at 6:28 pm

    hi again,

    my previous problem is resolved already, thanks.
    I tripple-checked everything, and to my surprise FILEZILLA missed some fonts during the uploading of the plugin!!!!
    this never happend to me, but now I am wiser.

    Thanks again,
    if some of my blog readers really use this pdf functionality, I will definitely donate.

  46. vmxon 04 May 2007 at 3:35 pm

    Hey!

    Nice plugin indeed. I have a couple of thougths though:

    1. Images could be resised to fit the page width, now my images are cropped pretty harsly…

    2. There could be a button for getting the WHOLE blog at once.

    3. Blank pages are occuring after these “over sized” images

  47. antonelloon 07 May 2007 at 10:55 pm

    Hi vmx thank you for you suggestions i will try to put some of them in the new version.

    Hello

    Thanks for this great plugin.

    Sorry if this is obvious, but is it possible to remove the pdf links for categories?

    And also, to display/position the pdf link in the theme template (rather than in the post body)?

    thanks

    Any suggestion or workaround ?

    ciao

  51. antonelloon 18 May 2007 at 12:20 pm

    Hi snowcrash, I’m sorry but you can’t disable the category exportation, and you can’t place the code in template, just in the post body! :-(

    ——————————————————————————
    Ciao Paolo, ti rispondo in italiano così facciamo prima, credo che tu abbia qualche problema con il codice del plugin, perché vedendo il tuo blog ho notato che il plugin viene invocato senza il codice del post da convertire ma con caratteri apparentemente casuali tipo * o ) quindi dovresti dirmi se hai fatto qualche modifica al codice, comunque se preferisci contattami via mail così cercheremo di risolvere la faccenda.

  58. pietroon 05 Jun 2007 at 3:59 pm

    funziona anche con la 2.2, però crea 2 problemi:
    1. nella sidebar appare l’icona pdf che sballa tutti i menù
    2. il pdf al posto del titolo del post contiene la email dell’admin

    spero che queste info ti possano essere utili

  59. SyGy88on 06 Jun 2007 at 12:58 pm

    Ciao! io ho dei problemi!

    La conversione dei post senza immagini al loro interno si svolge senza problemi ed in un milli secondo.

    Quando vado a fare la conversione di post che nel loro interno è inserita un’immagine lo script mi da un’errore nel “fpdf” mi dice che non è possibile raggiungere quella determinata img! Ho provato con tutte le immagini, pure convertendo solo articoli con immagini in png o jpeg. ma nulla! ho cercato qui sul blog, ma nulla! xo ho visto che anche qui da lo stesso problema nella pagina “lavori svolti”.

    Antonello è possibile fixare questo bug, dato che l’idea del plugin è bellissima ma i miei post sono al 99.9% con immagini al loro interno!

  60. Alexon 07 Jun 2007 at 4:07 pm

    Is there a way this could export an archive of the entire blog into one .pdf file? Also I was expecting to use this for personal archiving - I searched for ten minutes for the export link in the Wordpress Admin before realizing, after reading here, that the function to export .pdfs is in entries themselves!

  61. antonelloon 07 Jun 2007 at 8:36 pm

    Ciao pietro, per quanto riguarda il problema dell’immagine, puoi sostituirla con qualunque cosa tu preferisca semplicemente andando a modificare il codice html contenuto nel file config.inc.php che si trova nella cartella del plugin, la variabile che ti interessa è $html_category_code ricorda però di mantenere inalterato il codice del link (per capirci quello nel tag ‘a’)
    ——-
    SyGy88, ho verificato l’errore e purtroppo riguarda la libreria fpdf che a quanto pare in alcuni casi non riconosce le immagini jpg come tali, evidentemente è un problema di codifica dell’immagine e per quanto riguarda questo errore credo proprio di non poter porre rimedio, se non aspettando la nuova versione di fpdf.
    ——–
    Hi Alex, i’m sorry but for now you cannot export all your blog in pdf, maybe in future releases…

    Bye

    Hello

    thanks for the plugin which is what I was looking for. Though it doesn’t work properly with my WP 2.2.
    The installation is OK, but it can’t generate pdf files. When I click on the button, I get a “500 internal server error” with the following message :

    Internal Server Error
    The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
    Apache/ProXad [May 15 2007 17:32:33] Server at eelfaudincourt.free.fr Port 80

    Do you have any clue of what is needed to correct this error ?

    Thank you for your answer.

  65. Fredon 27 Jun 2007 at 10:02 am

    Hello Antonello,
    First thank you for giving this plugin to the community.
    But i have a remark to give you.
    Just suppose you have a site with 100 articles or pages and then you install your plugin.
    Because your plugin gives by default all articles/pages the possibility to export in PDF format, and because by default we should not want that all articles/pages have this functionnality, you just imagine that we must edit all articles/pages for those we don’t want them to have the PDF export function.
    What about 1000 articles/pages ?
    A better way should have been to manually switch each article/page we want the PDF export, no ?
    But i think that it’s a good base to work with it, because it’s not always easy to export html page in PDF with the FPDF library.

    Sorry for my bad english ;)

  66. antonelloon 30 Jun 2007 at 12:57 am

    Hi Fred thanks for your suggest, i’ll implement it in the next release.

    Thank you

    ciao
    ottimo plugin… pero’ ho un problemino:
    io tengo il blog in una sottodirectory (mi serve per tenere un po’ in ordine lo spazio sul mio host) ed uso il metodo riportato in http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory
    il problema e’ che il tuo plugin mi funziona solo se in config.inc.php aggiungo la sottodirectory dopo ##SITEURL## perche’, a quanto pare, ##SITEURL## corrisponde al “blog address” mentre a me serve il “wordpress address” (della pagina options)
    ho scartabellato un po’ i file ed ho notato che funziona tutto modificando siteurl in wp url alle righe:
    12 e 38 di generate.php
    40 e 57 di post2pdf.php
    (dove viene definita ##SITEURL##)
    dico solo per dire, ma magari, visto che questa mi pare una modifica che generalizzi il problema (nel senso che funziona *piu’ sempre*…) forse la potresti inserire
    ciao

  72. Danielon 19 Aug 2007 at 10:26 am

    Would it be possible to change the include tags (for exclude) to do the opposite?

    Meaning, by default, not posting PDF to conversion links for all posts/categories — and only adding an include tag for the posts you WANT to be converted?

    I think this approach would be more intuative to the publisher as an option — or allow for others like me to have that option, who only wish to allow limited PDF publication for targetted, specific purposes.

    Or would my wanted approach require an additional class to be checked as an option on the Options page of the plug-in?

    Hi Daniel, you comment doesn’t help me very much, if you don’t post a link or an example i can’t work on your problem and obviously can’t try to solve it.

    So please, send me a link to a page that give you such error.

    Ciao,
    è prevista una prossima release ?
    C’è la possibilità che integri la possibilità di escludere il pdf per le categorie e tenerlo solo nei post ?
    Non intendere le mie come “richieste” ti chiedo perché sto lavorando a un sito dove mi sarebbe utile e devo scegliere una plugin in breve tempo la tua mi piace e se prevedi queste features la userei volentieri.
    Grazie in anticipo per la tua risposta.

    Hi,

    I cant get it working correctly, it don’t want to generate the pdf file, it just goes to the mainpage without doing anything more?..:(

    Do you know what could be wrong ?

  81. Danielon 23 Sep 2007 at 11:36 am

    Hopefully you didn’t think I was the other Daniel.

    Just checking back to see if you had included the updated version — with the ‘include’ option instead of using ‘exclude’.

  82. 10SexyAppleson 04 Oct 2007 at 4:55 am

    Hi Antonello,
    Thank you VERY much for your work on this. I have implemented it in a test site and it worked beautifully. But, now I would like to implement it on a live site I am working on for a friend. Problem is that out of a few hundred posts, I can only have the functionality on about 30 of them. The others are all flash that won’t pdf properly. I see that you have mentioned that the ability to include instead of exclude the function is coming in a soon to be released version and I just needed to ask if you could possibly update as to approximately when that might be happening. I am eager obviously to know if I will be able to use this ;-)
    Also, I don’t know if you have seen the plugin wp-table? It’s a great plugin for being able to create tabled posts without having to do the tedious table markup each time. I wanted to use that for this site, (I am creating artist biographies that need to be able to be downloaded as pdf’s) but, to use it you insert just a tag in the post that references the table. So, when you pdf the post you just get [table=xxx]. It would be great if your plugin and the wp-table plugin worked together to grab that external table reference and then pdf it. Just a thought. It would probably be more feasible (coding wise) for wp-table to echo the table it creates into the post instead of getting it there via a tag, then the pdf would work.
    Anyway, thanks again for all the work. I’ll be eagerly awaiting news of your new release.

    I installed this plugin and, whilst it’s absolutely fantastic, it doesn’t seem to want to render post titles in the correct place. I tend to get them flying off the right of the PDF.

  85. WoDon 10 Oct 2007 at 12:04 pm

    Just hacked the PDF class to my preferences, very nice!

  86. antonelloon 10 Oct 2007 at 8:14 pm

    I’m sorry guys but in this period I’m too busy to work on this plugin so, please, be patient as soon as possible i will release the new version, and i will try to answer all your questions!

  87. antonelloon 13 Oct 2007 at 11:16 pm

    Hi Michael I’ve looked at your website and your problem seems due to a permission problem or incorrect path, so check this two possibilities and don’t esitate to contact me again also by mail!

    The permission on the post2pdf folder is 755 like all other plugins. Should it be 777?

    Salve antonello,
    innanzitutto complimenti per il plugin!
    ho scaricato le versioni di POST2PDF testandole dapprima in locale ed in seguito sul mio host, premetto sono su uno spazio offerto da netsons.org, in ogni modo vado a spiegarti il probema che (aimè!) si presenta con ambedue le versioni del plugin.

    Quando posto un articolo breve (per breve intendo meno di 5 righe di testo) tutto bene, il pdf viene generato ch’è un piacere! Quando scrivo qualcosa di più sostanzioso, ottengo due errori, rispettivamente:

    **** in IE: pagina non trovata;
    **** in FF: pagina bianca (non pdf bensì html).

    A cosa può esser dovuto? :(

    Grazie
    Gianluca

    this is because it does not suports .png files ? or transparency?

    could you sugest a fix for that?

    thanks.
