maikh: first drop your bootstrap dependency and do the css yourself |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:39 |
maikh |
ok, should it work with table layout? |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:39 |

using a css framework for pdf layouts is just wasting cpu cycles and contributing to global warming :slightly_smiling_face: |

so far cake on heroku seems to be running quite fine. only thing: caching via redis url does not seem to work, it fails. anyone got it working? |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:36 |
hmic |
the basic advice is: do a as simple as possible, embedded, css for the pdf layout. |
# |

you need to use another renderer then. the problems you get are what you have to pay for... |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:35 |
hmic |
you cannot. |

i think if i move this page to the customer server then we get more problems. so i would do this without any binary |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:34 |
hmic |
there is a known problem with this and a known good workaround! |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:34 |
hmic |
you are on debian and using there binary |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:34 |
hmic |
aha |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:34 |
maikh |
no... then there is the "x server " error |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:34 |
hmic |
whats your commandline? |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:34 |
hmic |
can you use it from the commandline? - no cake(pdf) involved? does it work? |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:33 |
maikh |
the problem is, the binary. Allways error in cake "wkhtml didnt get any data" or so |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:33 |
hmic |
wkhtmltopdf is the renderer, you do need it. its the whole chromium browser engine bascially, including the javascript processor even! |

anyone trying to replace a webpage in a pdf is gonna have a bad time :slightly_smiling_face: |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:32 |
hmic |
whats your problem with wkhtmltopdf acutally? maybe we can solve this faster than your layout problems |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:32 |
maikh |
is there a possibility to use wkhtmltopd and cakepdf without this binary? |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:32 |
admad |
i have always used handmade css for pdf layouts |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:32 |
hmic |
and/or use wkthmltopdf :p |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:32 |
hmic |
dont try do to fancy things |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:31 |
hmic |
usually you do an extra layout, with minimal everything for pdf generation. dont use any css you dont need |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:31 |
hmic |
maikh: you will not get around it if your layout uses like *any* css framework |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:31 |
admad |
htmls for generating pdf should be kept very simple |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:31 |
maikh |
i can not answer your question. i do pdf generation for the first time. :slightly_smiling_face: |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:31 |
maikh |
yes... the float is the problem. |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:30 |
admad |
it has too much bloat for this purpose |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:30 |
admad |
why are you even using bootstrap for pdf layouts? :slightly_smiling_face: |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:30 |
maikh |
@hmic maaaa... yes, i want... but i dont get this binary running. |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:29 |
hmic |
maikh: you should go for wkhtmltopdf for about anything more difficult than a styled table :p |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:27 |

little offtopic. is someone using dompdf with twitter bootstrap grids? |
# |

Oh cool, thanks ADmad - I thought I had to fork the standard and change it etc |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:14 |
admad |
then in specify the path to your file using --standard switch |
# |
Oct 10th 2016, 08:13 |

Neon1024: like so https://gist.github.com/ADmad/050104ca0b3ded47be80097a030d9c53 |

I think Justin does though at his company - I forget the name, they sponsor Cake Fest :) |

I think itâ??s because people know I canâ??t figure out how to change and maintain my own standard |
