Question

I’m using FPDF in my php project. I would like to have PDF version Double bar diagram like above image in my project. There’s a way that FPDF can create Pie chart and Bar diagram in http://www.fpdf.org/en/script/script28.php. But it’s not double bar diagram like what I want to get. Anyone have an idea how to create Double bar diagram using FPDF in PHP?
Many Thanks !!!

Probably you mean “COLUMN CHARTS”

It seems that there is no method to create column charts, so I tried to adapt the existing bar chart. Unfortunately I have no time to develop it further.

try this (making the necessary changes):

<?php

require('diag/sector.php');

class PDF_Diag extends PDF_Sector {
    var $legends;
    var $wLegend;
    var $sum;
    var $NbVal;


    function ColumnChart($w, $h, $data, $format, $color=null, $maxVal=0, $nbDiv=4)
    {

        // RGB for color 0
        $colors[0][0] = 155;
        $colors[0][1] = 75;
        $colors[0][2] = 155;

        // RGB for color 1
        $colors[1][0] = 0;
        $colors[1][1] = 155;
        $colors[1][2] = 0;

        // RGB for color 2
        $colors[2][0] = 75;
        $colors[2][1] = 155;
        $colors[2][2] = 255;

        // RGB for color 3
        $colors[3][0] = 75;
        $colors[3][1] = 0;
        $colors[3][2] = 155;

        $this->SetFont('Courier', '', 10);
        $this->SetLegends($data,$format);

        // Starting corner (current page position where the chart has been inserted)
        $XPage = $this->GetX();
        $YPage = $this->GetY();
        $margin = 2; 

        // Y position of the chart
        $YDiag = $YPage + $margin;

        // chart HEIGHT
        $hDiag = floor($h - $margin * 2);

        // X position of the chart
        $XDiag = $XPage + $margin;

        // chart LENGHT
        $lDiag = floor($w - $margin * 3 - $this->wLegend);

        if($color == null)
            $color=array(155,155,155);
        if ($maxVal == 0) 
        {
            foreach($data as $val)
            {
                if(max($val) > $maxVal)
                {
                    $maxVal = max($val);
                }
            }
        }

        // define the distance between the visual reference lines (the lines which cross the chart's internal area and serve as visual reference for the column's heights)
        $valIndRepere = ceil($maxVal / $nbDiv);

        // adjust the maximum value to be plotted (recalculate through the newly calculated distance between the visual reference lines)
        $maxVal = $valIndRepere * $nbDiv;

        // define the distance between the visual reference lines (in milimeters)
        $hRepere = floor($hDiag / $nbDiv);

        // adjust the chart HEIGHT
        $hDiag = $hRepere * $nbDiv;

        // determine the height unit (milimiters/data unit)
        $unit = $hDiag / $maxVal;

        // determine the bar's thickness
        $lBar = floor($lDiag / ($this->NbVal + 1));
        $lDiag = $lBar * ($this->NbVal + 1);
        $eColumn = floor($lBar * 80 / 100);

        // draw the chart border
        $this->SetLineWidth(0.2);
        $this->Rect($XDiag, $YDiag, $lDiag, $hDiag);

        $this->SetFont('Courier', '', 10);
        $this->SetFillColor($color[0],$color[1],$color[2]);
        $i=0;
        foreach($data as $val) 
        {
            //Column
            $yval = $YDiag + $hDiag;
            $xval = $XDiag + ($i + 1) * $lBar - $eColumn/2;
            $lval = floor($eColumn/(count($val)));
            $j=0;
            foreach($val as $v)
            {
                $hval = (int)($v * $unit);
                $this->SetFillColor($colors[$j][0], $colors[$j][1], $colors[$j][2]);
                $this->Rect($xval+($lval*$j), $yval, $lval, -$hval, 'DF');
                $j++;
            }

            //Legend
            $this->SetXY($xval, $yval + $margin);
            $this->Cell($lval, 5, $this->legends[$i],0,0,'C');
            $i++;
        }

        //Scales
        for ($i = 0; $i <= $nbDiv; $i++) 
        {
            $ypos = $YDiag + $hRepere * $i;
            $this->Line($XDiag, $ypos, $XDiag + $lDiag, $ypos);
            $val = ($nbDiv - $i) * $valIndRepere;
            $ypos = $YDiag + $hRepere * $i;
            $xpos = $XDiag - $margin - $this->GetStringWidth($val);
            $this->Text($xpos, $ypos, $val);
        }
    }

    function SetLegends($data, $format)
    {
        $this->legends=array();
        $this->wLegend=0;
        $this->NbVal=count($data);
    }
}


$pdf = new PDF_Diag();
$pdf->AddPage();


$data[0] = array(470, 490, 90);
