Add Bangla Font (ex: solaimanlipi) or other ttf font to mpdf

MPDF is a great tool to work with UTF-8 complex texts such as Bangla and indic scripts. You can add your own fonts to MPDF and use it with CSS properties as well.

1. just add this line in your config_fonts.php file inside the mpdf folder (user 6.0 or latest) “solaimanlipi” => array( ‘R’ => “SolaimanLipi.ttf”, ‘useOTL’ => 0xFF, ),

2. copy the solaimanlipi.ttf inside the ttfonts folder.

3. change your css styles for the PDF scripts.

body, p, div { font-size: 14pt; font-family: solaimanlipi;}

h3 { font-size: 15pt; margin-bottom:0; font-family: solaimanlipi; }

4. now run it, you will have the solaimanlipi integrated in mpdf.

 

you can do it with other unicode font as well

QEDwiki

Have you ever thought how it will be if our traditional wiki is bundled with cutting edge Web 2.0 features such as Mashups and rich web experience to end user with different web services bundle together in a single place. well if you have not then you have all rights to think about it. Because IBM is preparing to launch its new product named “QEDwiki” and the first impression i got from the youtube session is just awsome. that is what IBM says about QEDWiki

“QEDWiki is a lightweight mash-up maker written in PHP 5 and hosted on a LAMP, WAMP, or MAMP stack. A mash-up assembler will use QEDWiki to create a personalized, ad hoc Web application or mash-up by assembling a collection of widgets on a page, wiring them together to define the behavior of the mash-up application, and then possibly sharing the mash-up with others. Mash-up enablers provide QEDWiki with a collection of widgets that provide application domain- or information-specific functionality. These widgets are represented within QEDWiki as PHP scripts.

When a user renders a page within a QEDWiki workspace, the QEDWiki framework processes the widgets on the server side and then generates a DHTML page that is sent to the browser for client-side processing. The framework includes a rich AJAX-enabled MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture so that each wiki page is a rich, interactive application for end users.”
