Hi everyone,
I hope this is in the right section. I need some help with PDF generation, I have ran into trouble with the layout.

Here is the code...

PHP Code:

                    // appends ref number and creation date to title

                    $last_table[0][0] = ucfirst(strtolower($title));

                    $last_table[0][1] = $ref_id;

                    $last_table[1][0] = "Date";

                    $last_table[1][1] = $creation;

                    

                    

                    if(strlen($cust_forename) > 0 && strlen($cust_surname) > 0){

                        $cust_detals[0][0] = 'Full name ';

                        $cust_detals[0][1] = $cust_forename . ' ' . $cust_surname;

                    }else{

                        $cust_detals[0][0] = 'Full name ';

                        $cust_detals[0][1] = 'Store order';

                    }

                    

                    if(strlen($cust_company) > 0){

                        $cust_detals[1][0] = 'Company ';

                        $cust_detals[1][1] = $cust_company;

                    }else{

                        $cust_detals[1][0] = 'Company';

                        $cust_detals[1][1] = ' ';

                    }

                    

                    if(strlen($cust_email) > 0){

                        $cust_detals[2][0] = 'Address';

                        $cust_detals[2][1] =  $cust_addr1 . ', ' . $cust_addr2;

                    }else{

                        $cust_detals[2][0] = 'Address ';

                        $cust_detals[2][1] = ' ';

                    }

                    

                    if(strlen($cust_city) > 0 && strlen($cust_county) > 0 && strlen($cust_postcode) > 0 ){

                        $cust_detals[3][0] = '';

                        $cust_detals[3][1] = $cust_city . ', ' . $cust_county . ', ' . $cust_postcode;

                    }else{

                        $cust_detals[3][0] = ' ';

                        $cust_detals[3][1] = ' ';

                    }

                    

                    if(strlen($cust_telarea) > 0 && strlen($cust_tel) > 0){

                        $cust_detals[4][0] = 'Tel';

                        $cust_detals[4][1] = $cust_telarea . $cust_tel;

                    }else{

                        $cust_detals[4][0] = 'Tel';

                        $cust_detals[4][1] = ' ';

                    }

                    

                    // Inserts customers details in pdf

                    $pdf->Ln(5);

                    if(is_array($cust_detals)){

                        $pdf->no_header_table($cust_detals, 1, 0, 60);

                    $pdf->Ln(5);

                        $pdf->Ln(5);

                        $pdf->no_header_table($last_table, 1, 0, 30);

                    } 

This is what it creates (the blank fields contain data, hope you get the picture from the code)...

If possible I would like it look like this...new.png
I dont mind if there is a column (cells would have to be hidden) between the customer details and ref&date table, kinda makin it one table. That is just an idea of how I think it could work, kinda creating it as one whole table.
I also need it so that the column widths are seperate and easily changed. At the moment in the customer details table the column width are joined, so this part of the code...

PHP Code:

$pdf->Ln(5);

                    if(is_array($cust_detals)){

                        $pdf->no_header_table($cust_detals, 1, 0, 60); 

...link the colums, if I change the 60 to 30 both colums change. I need make the widths seperate.

I really hope someone can help, I have spent about a week trying differen solutions and searchin online to get ideas but my mind is blank. I am probably just approaching it in the wrong way or over thinking the method of doing it.


Thanks to all in advance, hopefully someone can improve this code for me.

I would have appreciated an example code, which would reproduce the problem, and be fully functional.
