在PDFBundle（PHPPdf）中使用其他字体

Question

I use the PdfBundle (PHPPdf) in Symfony2 and want to use another font. I want to add the font.xml file to the config.yml in the app folder:

ps_pdf:
    fonts_file: "@FoundationBundle/Resources/config/fonts.xml"

But it say always File "@FoundationBundle/Resources/config/fonts.xml" doesn't exist or is unreadable I try different variations but I don't find a solution. How I can load the fonts.xml File?

Edit: My path to the fonts.xml is /src/FoundationBundle/Resources/config/fonts.xml so I want to load this in the /app/config/config.yml .

Answer 1

I hvae noticed the typo in the directory named Recources . It should be Resources .

Apart from that, if I remember correctly, this bundle does not support "bundle syntax". Try using this instead:

ps_pdf:
    fonts_file: "%kernel_root%/Resources/config/fonts.xml"

Put your fonts.xml into /path/to/your/project/app/Resources/config/

Answer 2

I used the following syntax for load the xml File in my Foundation Bundle (Add the lines in the app/config/config.yml ):

ps_pdf:
    fonts_file: "%kernel.root_dir%/../src/FoundationBundle/Resources/config/fonts.xml"

Important for me is that I need to clear the cache in symfony so that it works with php app/console cache:clear --env=dev . I also need to copy the fonts.xml content from /vendor/psliwa/php-pdf/lib/PHPPdf/Resourced/config/fonts.xml in the new fonts.xml config.

The next problem was to set the variables in the font.xml in my Bundle. Here I can use the Bundle Syntax again. So I set the calibri font like this in the font XML:

<font name="calibri">
    <normal src="%FoundationBundle:public/fonts/calibri.ttf%" />
    <bold src="%FoundationBundle:public/fonts/calibrib.ttf%" />
    <italic src="%FoundationBundle:public/fonts/calibrii.ttf%" />
    <bold-italic src="%FoundationBundle:public/fonts/calibribi.ttf%" />
</font>

Now the font is in the Foundation Bundle under Resources/public/fonts . The fonts I saved in the Foundation Bundle in the folder Resources/public/fonts .

After changing the font.xml there is also a cache clear required. Also in the developer environmental ( php app/console cache:clear --env=dev )
