From the install directions:

 

4 - In catalog/admin/includes/boxes/tools.php, or any other box, insert following line :

 

// BOF PDF Catalogue

// EOF PDF Catalogue

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PDF_CATALOGUE) . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">' . BOX_TOOLS_PDF_CATALOGUE . '</a><br>' . // PDF Catalog v.1.51

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PDF_DEFINE_INTRO) . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PDF_DEFINE_INTRO . '</a><br>' . // PDF Catalog v.1.55

ok i have look at the code i need to place in the file but I'm now on 2.3.1 and it looks like the code is for 2.2.

 

Is it a case of just changing the code so it looks like the code in there for 2.3.1 or is it more involved.

I counted the right amount of brackets or am I missing the big picture

Try that.

 

You didn't put commas at the end of some of the added lines.

 

I haven't tried this code on my localhost so it's just an educated(??) guess.

That worked again something simple

now i have the admin area showing but when i try to produce the pdf catalogs i get this error

 

FPDF error: Image file has no extension and no type was specified: /home/dcsstor1/public_html/shop/images/PDF_LOGO

 

but the line of code it refers to is as follows

 

// the catalog/images directory! Will be resized to have a height of 30 pt.
define('store_logo.png','store_logo.png');

 

and the admin code is as follows

 

// the catalog/images directory! Will be resized to have a height of 30 pt.
define('store_logo.png','store_logo.png');

 

same same

the original code is as follows.

 

// the catalog/images directory! Will be resized to have a height of 30 pt.
define('PDF_LOGO','');

3. ISSUES THAT I WOULD LIKE TO RESOLVE.

 

Great Add-on!

OSC. 2.3.1.

 

 

PLEASE SEE IMAGE ATTACHED.

 

1. Change the text "Katalog" at the top of the page.

 

2. Change the colour of the "orange bar"

 

3. Notice the text in Spanish "... BAÑO" - it should be "... BAÑO" - how to address the encoding issues

FINALLY - IF THERE ANY TEMPLATE STYLE MODIFICATIONS OUT THERE . WELL TO TRY AN TRANSFORM THE STOCK CATALOG INTO SOMETHING "WOW"

[apolyshow]

There is a problem or am i not reading something ?

 

4 - In catalog/includes/boxes/information.php insert following line in the links array :

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PDF_CATALOGUE) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PDF_CATALOGUE . '</a><br>'. // PDF Catalog v.1.51

 

I can't find such a file cause i don't have includes/boxes. Any ideas?

[apolyshow]

This what i am getting when i am trying to generate a file :

 

FPDF error:

 

Alpha channel not supported: /home/mydomain/public_html/estore/images/logo.png

 

Do you have any ideas?

And when i am trying to see generated files then i am having blank pages....

[♥kymation]

catalog/includes/boxes/information.php can now be found in catalog/includes/modules/boxes/bm_information.php. You will need to convert your changes to the 2.3.1 standard; there are instructions here.

 

Images having an Alpha channel are not supported by the FPDF functions. You will need to convert your image to remove the Alpha channel.

Good morning Jim

I have opened the photoshop and my png logo doesn't have alpha channel or this is what it said. But the osc 2.3.1 doesn't get any other type except png... Also when i put the code to bm_information then the page download our catalog is a mess...What did i do wrong? I didn't change anything to pdf_catalogue_info.php. Do i have to change something?

Edited August 1, 2011 by apolyshow

[apolyshow]

Ok i figure it out but now i have THREE good problems

First the View Pdf it always goes to admin/catalogues/catalogue_2.pdf and the file is saved to public_html/eshop/catalogues/catalogue_2.pdg

Secondly the pdf file that i am opening is a mess because it can't understand the Greek Language. I had just copy the eng files to a gr directory and just translate it them .Do i have to do and something else?

Third and last the page "Download Pdf Catalogue " is a mess. What is wrong?

 

Please give a shot here...

Gfasal give me a help please. I am having the same issues here.

[apolyshow]

Sold and the problem with directory nut my pdf file is like a mess cause i haven't found yet the problem with the greek language in my database so it takes the " 76?><>{$$%@&&&$??? " description and give me the same thing to the generated pdf.

Why is so dificult to make something? Do you have any ideas cause the only think that i am doing the last two months is to writing for oscommerce.

I can do it anymore....

[actarus1011]

HI.

 

Thanks for this contrib but I have some issues... One of them if that when I generate only one category catalog, the language of the selected catalog is not the correct one. Where can check the $languages_id that is used for generation of the PDF ?

 

Is it possible to add a page separator after each product ?

 

 

Thanks.

[apolyshow]

Did you find a solution?

[OSC-Sevilla]

has anyone upgraded the the FPDF.php to the latrest version that allows you to use the logos as png files . or has alpha channel support?????
