Also, it is really specific to your case and require the zend Pdf library which should be added in HikaShop for that. So I don't think that we would add it. However, it's a nice idea to trigger hikashop plugins when calling that function so that you can dynamically do some processing on it in a plugin, instead of having to modify a core file. We'll look at adding that in the near future.

Then, you can create a hikashop plugin, like the plugins which already exist in the folder /plugins/hikashop/ of your website and implement the function onBeforeDownloadFile and put your code there.

You'll need empty index.html, README_DE and CHANGELOG files in the package, the font calibri.ttf, and the zend framework files in a Zend folder as listed in the xml file. So it's more complex to do than what I thought first. The best would be that @klimmbimm provides a zip of what he has done.

I would like to have them branded with the customer's username, so I wrote this little PHP code: How can I include this in Hikashop deftly, so that a customer gets his branded PDF instead of the original file? And additionally a probably more PHP affine question: Very nice would be, if I could relinquish the "save"-function. But I think a download won't be possible without having the file saved first, right?")* I am very sorry for the late answer. I was doing a lot of other stuff meanwhile. Tomorrow I hope to get access to a installation zip file, which I will upload then. Best, KB EDIT: Found the zip and merged nicolas' changes to make it officially compatible with Joomla 2.5. *This attachment is hidden for guests. Please log in or register to see it.* To be honest, I didn't share the zip in the past, because I didn't (and still don't) have a clue about copyright stuff. E.g. I am using part of the Zend Framework to write to PDFs and the calibri.ttf. **REGARDING THE SUPPORTED JOOMLA VERSION:** I am using the plugin with Joomla 2.5. By now, without the changes made by nicolas (thank you!). I guess, it would run under Joomla 3.x as well. Feel free to try and let us know. **REGARDING THE MISSING INDEX.HTML:** It's like nicolas mentioned before. You need additional files. But you could remove at least calibri.ttf from the listing in the **branding.xml** file, if you like to fiddle around a bit. ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)") Please take care to comment or remove the following line in **branding.php**Code: $font = Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath(JPATH_BASE . DS . 'plugins' .DS . 'hikashop' . DS . 'branding' . DS . 'calibri.ttf'); // works, if file calibri.ttf is supplied and uncomment the prepared line above: Code: //$font = Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithName(Zend_Pdf_Font::FONT_HELVETICA); // works without having a TTF font file put in place Last edit: 12 years 6 months ago by [klimmbimm](/forum/user/739-klimmbimm "View klimmbimm's Profile").
