I have an image that is sent from an iPad app to an SQL
database. I can retrieve this image and display in a web page using the following php
:
$img = base64_encode($row['photoData']);
echo "<img src=\"data:image/jpg;charset=utf8;base64, $img\"/>";
This displays fine. What I want to do now is put this image into a PDF
document using FPDF
however I am struggling to do this.
This:
$img = base64_encode($row['photoData']);
$pdf->Image($img);
give this error:
FPDF error: Image file has no extension and no type was specified:
So I tried this (although I realise I will then have to look at how to get the size of the image sorted):
$pdf->Image($img, 20, 20, 20, 20 'JPG');
which give me:
FPDF error: Missing or incorrect image file:
What is the correct way to do this?
Or would it be easier to temporarily save the image to the server and then place the saved image into the PDF
doc?
