Creating and Loading PDF Documents
The Zend_Pdf class represents PDF documents and
provides document-level operations.
To create a new document, a new Zend_Pdf object should first be
created.
Zend_Pdf class also provides two static methods to load an existing
PDF document. These are the Zend_Pdf::load() and
Zend_Pdf::parse() methods. Both of them return
Zend_Pdf objects as a result or throw an exception if an error
occurs.
Create new or load existing PDF document
The PDF file format supports incremental document update. Thus each time
a document is updated, then a new revision of the document is created.
Zend_Pdf component supports the retrieval of a specified revision.
A revision can be specified as a second parameter to the
Zend_Pdf::load() and Zend_Pdf::parse()
methods or requested by calling the Zend_Pdf::rollback() method.
Zend_Pdf::rollback() method must be invoked before any
changes are applied to the document, otherwise the behavior is not defined.
