Fluid FPDF Tutorial Footer

In this tutorial we want to reuse a footer template on each PDF page. For that you need to create an additional Template, we call it simply Templates/Pdf/Footer.html. This template could look like this:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en"
      xmlns:f="http://typo3.org/ns/fluid/ViewHelpers"
      xmlns:fpdf="http://typo3.org/ns/CodingMs/FluidFpdf/ViewHelpers"
      data-namespace-typo3-fluid="true">

    <!-- Page numbers -->
    <fpdf:setXY x="160" y="280" />
    <fpdf:cell text="{fpdf:pageNo()}/|nb|" align="R" width="40" />

</html>

Additionally we need a FPDF template like usual. In this template we need to define the path to the footer template in the <fpdf:pdf tag. Our testing template looks like this:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en"
      xmlns:f="http://typo3.org/ns/fluid/ViewHelpers"
      xmlns:fpdf="http://typo3.org/ns/CodingMs/FluidFpdf/ViewHelpers"
      data-namespace-typo3-fluid="true">
<fpdf:pdf footerTemplate="EXT:fluid_fpdf/Resources/Private/Templates/Pdf/Footer.html">
    <fpdf:setFont family="Arial" style="" size="15" />

    <fpdf:addPage />

    <fpdf:addPage />

    <fpdf:addPage />

    <fpdf:addPage />

</fpdf:pdf>
</html>

This extension provides a comprehensive set of ViewHelpers for working with FPDF in Fluid. By defining the fpdf namespace, you can generate PDFs directly in your own TYPO3 extensions. It also includes a built-in plugin for rendering predefined PDFs, automatically exposing all available PDF definitions.
