RE: [PHP] Drawing tables using PDFlib

You can draw rectangles in PDFlib just as easily as you can draw lines in PDFlib. Something as simple as: pdf_setlinewidth($pdf, 2); pdf_rect($pdf, 3, $y, 10, 10); pdf_stroke($pdf); So you are now drawing 4 lines at time rather than 1... Or if you like because of how PDFlib works you can take a graphic of a table and then write that graphic into the PDF and then just place the location of the information ontop of the various "cells" on the table graphic... Just a quick and dirty solution... PDFs can be a little tricky... But the other alternatives make it look pretty nice. Tom Walsh www.designgeek.com BTW: I hear Cisco is in a hiring phase...
