How to get total no of pages in TCPDF?

Question

I used getNumPages() function to get the total number of pages in tcpdf, but I didn't get the correct output. What should I do to get the correct number?

Solution

Hi I just wanted to add for anyone reading this, that I was using getNumPages() like you in the footer and it was giving me trouble because it was showing me the number of pages inserted up to now. So I was getting 1/1, 2/2, 3/3, etc.

This is what I tried at first:

$this->getPage().'/'.$this->getNumPages()

I looked at example number 3 and used the following instead to get the correct result.

$this->getAliasNumPage().'/'.$this->getAliasNbPages()

This is a good answer - my app using if condition for manual page breaking (better) and "$this->getPage().'/'.$this->getNumPages()" return something like 1/1 2/2 ... n/n for n pages doc

It returns output as String. when we convert it to integer then output is zero. how to get integer typed current page number and total pages count? Kindly suggest thanks.

(int) and intval() both are not working on getAliasNumPage and getAliasNbPages functions. any suggestion?
