Hi @abbe-cipher

You can simply use it by including the library with composer: composer require tecnickcom/tcpdf

Then, have a look at their examples on GitHub (with a prettier version online).

Code seems to be quite old, but it still looks active and works.

Hi @noplanman thanks for your quick response.

your solution absolutely true and work. 💯 👍

i know this is not place to ask these kind of Question and this problem not related to telegrambot, but i have trouble with tcpdf library.

i added it to my project.and create new class under Longman\Telegrambot\ with Genpdf name :

    <?php
    namespace Longman\TelegramBot\tcpdf;
    // use Longman\TelegramBot\tcpdf\TCPDF;
    require( __DIR__ . '\tcpdf\tcpdf_include.php');

class Genpdf
{
public static function make()
{
$pdf = new TCPDF(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, true, 'UTF-8', false);
.     .       .           . 
-----other code to create pdf file.
}
}
$s=new Genpdf();
$s->make();

i test it localy, when i comment namespace in thisclass all things right and generate a sample pdf file,but when uncomment namespace i give a error :

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'Longman\TelegramBot\tcpdf\TCPDF' not found in C:\xampp\htdocs\vendor\longman\telegram-bot\src\Genpdf.php:29 Stack trace: #0 C:\xampp\htdocs\vendor\longman\telegram-bot\src\Genpdf.php(96): Longman\TelegramBot\tcpdf\Genpdf::make() #1 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\vendor\longman\telegram-bot\src\Genpdf.php on line 29

where is my problem ... ????

i put draw my project strucure blew :

                      [telegrambot]

[src]

Just use composer to include the TCPDF library! I assume you'll be using it within one of your commands, right? So the library will get autoloaded automatically.

As for your custom classes (for example Genpdf), you will need to add the src directory to be autoloaded via composer.json: I suggest you make an own namespace for your project code (in the examples below I'll use Yaaay)

{
    "require": {
        "tecnickcom/tcpdf": "^6.2"
        ...
    },
    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "Yaaay\\": "src/"
        }
    }
}

// src/Genpdf.php
<?php

namespace Yaaay;

use TCPDF;

class Genpdf
{
    public function make()
    {
        $pdf = new TCPDF(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, true, 'UTF-8', false);
        // etc...
    }
}

Now, you can just make use of it by useing your Genpdf class: 😃

// some file in your project

use Yaaay\Genpdf;

$s = new Genpdf();
$s->make();

Hope that gets you going.

I suggest you learn more about namespacing and PHP to understand how it works.
