# PDFCalendarBuilder

Generate pdf month calendars with autoscaling/sizing

With the addMonth() introduced in 1.0.8 you can generate a PDF containing

multiple months. Each month will be on it's own page then.

## Unique features

- The class can try to put everything on one page

- In an normal calendar, all rows have the same height

- This library can shrink/expand rows, so everything fits on one page.

See setResizeRowHeightsIfNeeded(true/false);

- If this is not enough, it can reduce the font size until everything fits on one page.

See setShrinkFontSizeIfNeeded(true/false);

## Usage:

In your composer.json add the dependency:

```

    "require": {

        "php": "^8.1",

        "a-schild/pdfcalendarbuilder": ">=1.0.11",

    }

```

### Creating the class and generate calendar

```

$cal = new aschild\PDFCalendarBuilder\CalendarBuilder(1, 2019, "Calendar title", true, 'mm', 'A4');

$cal->startPDF();

$cal->addEntry($startDate, $endDate, "Entry 1", "#000000", "#fffff");

$cal->buildCalendar();

$cal->Output("calendar.pdf", "I");

```

### Creating the class and generate calendar for 3 months (Required version 1.0.7 or higher)

```

$cal = new aschild\PDFCalendarBuilder\CalendarBuilder(1, 2019, "Calendar title Jan", true, 'mm', 'A4');

$cal->startPDF();

$cal->addEntry($startDate1, $endDate1, "Entry 1", "#000000", "#ffffff");

$cal->buildCalendar();

$cal->addMonth(2, 2019, "Title for Feb");

$cal->addEntry($startDate2, $endDate2, "Entry 1", "#000000", "#ffffff");

$cal->buildCalendar();

$cal->addMonth(3, 2019, "Title for March");

$cal->addEntry($startDate3, $endDate3, "Entry 1", "#000000", "#ffffff");

$cal->buildCalendar();

$cal->Output("calendar.pdf", "I");

```

## Examples

- Empty calendar, no entries, just a month grid

- Overflowing boxes in normal libraries

- Resize row heights to adapt space usage
