Is there any easy way to print text using zend_pdf?

Question

I want to create a PDF file using zend_pdf. But this way seems not efficient at all because I need to define the exact text location :(

$page->drawText(""Some text", $x, $y);

Is there any easier way to print text?

Answer 1

As far as I know I don't think that there is an easy way to print a PDF with Zend_Pdf because you have to position everything.

For printing PDF in PHP, I always used TCPDF and converted HTML to PDF with great results. Unless you are forced to use Zend_Pdf I think you should avoid it. (I used the 1.11 version so things might change).
