stevesimo Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Hi, I have a script which generates a certificate on screen using 2 images and placing the certificate holders name and date awarded in the middle. What I want to know is is there a way to print the certificate without the browser details appearing on the printout? ie the page link at the bottom and page number etc? More specifically is there a way to tell the printer to print an image and some text but to ignore everything else? Many thanks Steve (Blackpool) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/46603-solved-print-certificate-using-php/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenrbnsn Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Not with PHP. PHP runs on the server and has no clue about any printers the user may be able to use. You might be able to control this with Javascript.

yzerman Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 The problem is not in the script The problem is in the users printer settings. Open IE Goto File>Page Setup... In the Headers and Footers dialog box, delete all Print.

stevesimo Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I downloaded the free pdf script www.fpdf.org It took a little bit of messing with to get it to work. Comes with complete documentation together with working examples.
