Solution Overview 789 There are a few different ways you can deal with this situation.You could go through each of these placeholders and delete the formatting codes. Deleting them actually makes little difference to how the document looks in the end because the codes embedded in the previous template indicate how much space should be left between the letters of the placeholders that you are going to replace anyhow. However, if you take this approach, you must go through and hand-edit the PDF file and repeat this each time you change or update the file. Doing all this work is not a big deal when you’re dealing with only four placeholders, but it becomes a nightmare when, for example, you have multiple documents with many placeholders, and you decide to change the letterhead on all the documents. You can avoid this problem by using a different technique.You can use Adobe Acrobat to create a PDF form—similar to an HTML form with blank, named fields.You can then use a PHP script to create what is called an FDF (Forms Data Format) file, which is basically a set of data to be merged with a template.You can create FDFs using PHP’s FDF function library: specifically, the fdf_create() function to create a file, the fdf_set_value() function to set the field values, and the fdf_set_file() function to set the associated template form file.You can then pass this file back to the browser with the appropriate MIME type—in this case, vnd.fdf—and the browser’s Acrobat Reader plug-in should substitute the data into the form. This way of doing things is neat, but it has two limitations. First, it assumes that you own a copy of Acrobat Professional (the full version, not the free reader, or even the Standard edition). Second, it is difficult to substitute in text that is inline rather than text that looks like a form field.This might or might not be a problem, depending on what you are trying to do.We largely use PDF generation for generating letters where many things must be substituted inline. FDFs do not work well for this purpose. If you are auto-filling, for example, a tax form online, this will not be a problem. You can read more about the FDF format at Adobe’s site: http://www.adobe.com/ devnet/acrobat/fdftoolkit.html. You should also look at the FDF documentation in the PHP manual if you decide to use this approach: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.fdf.php. We turn now to the PDF solution to the previous problem. You can still find and replace the placeholders in the PDF file if you recognize that the additional format codes consist solely of hyphens, digits, and parentheses and can therefore be matched via a regular expression.We wrote a function, pdf_replace(), to automatically generate a matching regular expression for a placeholder and replace that placeholder with the appropriate text. Note that with some versions of Acrobat, the placeholders are in plain text, and you can replace them with str_replace(), as you did before. Other than this addition, the code for generating the certificate via a PDF template is similar to the RTF version.This script is shown in Listing 32.4.
