Oh, sorry for my unclear answer.

My original problem would be to have users enter information in a form, and the input information would be organized in a specific way in a PDF form. For instance, you input items and prices, and it will output a PDF page with the bill (prices of each items + total amount).

Thanks for your answer again,

My original problem is find a way to generate a customized PDF using PHP or LaTeX.

I want to do something similar to fpdf.org (php library that outputs a customized PDF).

I know that LaTeX can do that also, but somehow if I use my LaTeX code on WordPress, it will not work. (Probably because the latex functions are limited on wordpress.)

Hi, thanks for you reply

I am currently trying to figure out how to use “The Loop” (I’m new to WP platform… It is so much more complicated! I prefer without platforms!)

1 – “This plugin requires pdflatex and pdftk installed. You can check for these by executing which pdflatex and which pdftk on your host.”

How exactly can we check if we have them installed?

2 – Link to the PDF version of a post by putting the following into The Loop:
“>PDF Version

Another question ; your plugin only put a post/page –> PDF? Or can we also create our own customized PDF like fpdf.org library?

Thanks!

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, believe me, i read everything in FAQ!

I just want to see how to generate a PDF document from a page. I saw the code in the FAQ but im not quite sure how to use it. I just need an example of the code that we should write in a page to generate a simple PDF. Let’s say, this simple example :

% Example LaTeX document for GP111 – note % sign indicates a comment
\documentstyle[11pt]{article}
% Default margins are too wide all the way around. I reset them here
\setlength{\topmargin}{-.5in}
\setlength{\textheight}{9in}
\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{.125in}
\setlength{\textwidth}{6.25in}

This article demonstrates a basic set of LaTeX formatting commands.
Compare the typeset output side-by-side with the input document.

I’ve worked a bit with LaTeX before, however I’m not sure how to implement it on WordPress.

Thanks again!

I want to run the code in my pages. Google Charts for example

Ooops, here’s an example of google chart code : https://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/?type=visualization#table_paging
