This is a complete script for creating a single paged PDF file:
$pdf = new pdffile;
$page = $pdf->new_page("letter");
$pdf->draw_text(50, 50, "This is a single page", $page);
echo $pdf->generate();
Place text 1 inch from the lower left corner of the page at size 16 point.
$param["height"] = 16; $pdf->draw_text(72, 72, "This is 16 point text", $page, $param);
Place red, Courier text:
$param["color"] = $pdf->get_color('red');
$param["font"] = "Courier";
$pdf->draw_text(144, 144, "This is red, Courier text", $page, $param);
Early versions of the library had a draw_stext() function, but this has been replaced by draw_text().
