tcpdf configuration

Hi,
I'm using tcpdf 6.4.1 with Codeigniter 4. It works without any problems.
There are a few changes in the configuration that I need:
For example, I have changed the definition for PDF_MARGIN_TOP in vendor/tecnickom/tcpdf/config.
I would prefer to leave the vendor directory untouched and keep those changes inside my /app directory. Any ideas how this can be done?

I do not use the library directly, but will try to help you.

When you start using the tcpdf library, you initiate a new tcpdf object:

PHP Code:

$pdf = new TCPDF(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, true, 'UTF-8', false); 


and then you can manipulate it's properties through the TCPDF class methods.

The property you refer to is defined in the config file as a constant:

PHP Code:

define ('PDF_MARGIN_TOP', 27); 


But as described in the documentation, you can change it through the TCPDF method SetMargins:

PHP Code:

$pdf->SetMargins(PDF_MARGIN_LEFT, PDF_MARGIN_TOP, PDF_MARGIN_RIGHT); 


Instead of using the defaults (as in the example line above) you can use your own numbers - all or part of them:

PHP Code:

$pdf->SetMargins(PDF_MARGIN_LEFT, 33, PDF_MARGIN_RIGHT);
