Possible to remove margins only on cover page?

[zakiaziz]

Hi, I'm making a call like this within laravel:

PDF::loadView('reports.body', ['data' => $data])
->setOrientation('landscape')
->setOption('cover', view('reports.cover', ['coverData' => $coverData]))
->setOption('header-html', view('reports.header', ['headerData' => $headerData]))
->setOption('footer-html', view('reports.footer', ['footerData' => $footerData]))
->setOption('margin-bottom', '0mm')
->setOption('margin-top', '0mm')
->setOption('margin-right', '0mm')
->setOption('margin-left', '0mm');

But the problem with that is it removes the header and footer in the body.

Is there an option to remove the margins only on the cover page?

Same problem for me as well.Is this a bug in laravel snappy?

[zakiaziz]

Probably not (though I'm not 100% sure). Laravel Snappy should be just a wrapper around this library.

[tushar32]

What is the solution then? I am thinking of using pdfmerger.

How did you create Table of content using snappy?

If the organizers are still present: I'm still looking for help on this issue

@zakiaziz I'm afraid there's no solution for your problem: AFAIK margin applies on every pages of the document. As suggested by @tushar32, you can try to generate multiple PDFs and merge them together.

In this case there is one more bug, if I merge two or more files together the table of content doesn't work.
