PDF to HTML PHP Class

This PHP class can convert your pdf files to html using poppler-utils.

Thanks

Big thanks Mochamad Gufron (mgufrone)! I did a packet based on its package (https://github.com/mgufrone/pdf-to-html).

Important Notes

Please see how to use below.

Installation

When you are in your active directory apps, you can just run this command to add this package on your app

  composer require tonchik-tm/pdf-to-html:~1

Or add this package to your composer.json

{
  "tonchik-tm/pdf-to-html":"~1"
}

Requirements

1. Install Poppler-Utils

Debian/Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install poppler-utils

Mac OS X

brew install poppler

Windows

For those who need this package in windows, there is a way. First download poppler-utils for windows here <http://blog.alivate.com.au/poppler-windows/>. And download the latest binary.

After download it, extract it.

2. We need to know where is utilities

Debian/Ubuntu

$ whereis pdftohtml
pdftohtml: /usr/bin/pdftohtml

$ whereis pdfinfo
pdfinfo: /usr/bin/pdfinfo

Mac OS X

$ which pdfinfo
/usr/local/bin/pdfinfo

$ which pdftohtml
/usr/local/bin/pdfinfo

Windows

Go in extracted directory. There will be a directory called bin. We will need this one.

3. PHP Configuration with shell access enabled

Usage

Example:

<?php
// if you are using composer, just use this
include 'vendor/autoload.php';

// initiate
$pdf = new \TonchikTm\PdfToHtml\Pdf('test.pdf', [
    'pdftohtml_path' => '/usr/bin/pdftohtml',
    'pdfinfo_path' => '/usr/bin/pdfinfo'
]);

// example for windows
// $pdf = new \TonchikTm\PdfToHtml\Pdf('test.pdf', [
//     'pdftohtml_path' => '/path/to/poppler/bin/pdftohtml.exe',
//     'pdfinfo_path' => '/path/to/poppler/bin/pdfinfo.exe'
// ]);

// get pdf info
$pdfInfo = $pdf->getInfo();

// get count pages
$countPages = $pdf->countPages();

// get content from one page
$contentFirstPage = $pdf->getHtml()->getPage(1);

// get content from all pages and loop for they
foreach ($pdf->getHtml()->getAllPages() as $page) {
    echo $page . '<br/>';
}

Full list settings:

<?php

$full_settings = [
    'pdftohtml_path' => '/usr/bin/pdftohtml', // path to pdftohtml
    'pdfinfo_path' => '/usr/bin/pdfinfo', // path to pdfinfo

    'generate' => [ // settings for generating html
        'singlePage' => false, // we want separate pages
        'imageJpeg' => false, // we want png image
        'ignoreImages' => false, // we need images
        'zoom' => 1.5, // scale pdf
        'noFrames' => false, // we want separate pages
    ],

    'clearAfter' => true, // auto clear output dir (if removeOutputDir==false then output dir will remain)
    'removeOutputDir' => true, // remove output dir
    'outputDir' => '/tmp/'.uniqid(), // output dir

    'html' => [ // settings for processing html
        'inlineCss' => true, // replaces css classes to inline css rules
        'inlineImages' => true, // looks for images in html and replaces the src attribute to base64 hash

    ]
]
