# Multi-Page PDF Support - Implementation Complete ✅

## Overview
Your certificate system now fully supports multi-page PDF templates while maintaining 100% backward compatibility with existing single-page templates.

---

## Backend Changes (src/Service/PdfProcessor.php)

### 1. **processPdfWithFpdi()** - Multi-Page Loop
```php
// OLD: Only processed page 1
$tplId = @$pdf->importPage(1);

// NEW: Processes all pages
$pageCount = @$pdf->setSourceFile($templatePath);
for ($pageNum = 1; $pageNum <= $pageCount; $pageNum++) {
    $tplId = @$pdf->importPage($pageNum);
    // ... render each page
}
```

### 2. **addFieldsToPdf()** - Page-Aware Field Placement
```php
// OLD: Only checked page 1
if (... && ($coord['page'] ?? 1) == 1)

// NEW: Checks current page being processed
private function addFieldsToPdf(..., int $currentPage = 1): void
if (... && ($coord['page'] ?? 1) == $currentPage)
```

**Key Features:**
- ✅ Loops through all pages in PDF template
- ✅ Imports each page individually
- ✅ Renders fields only on their designated pages
- ✅ Maintains page-specific orientation (Portrait/Landscape)
- ✅ Default page = 1 for backward compatibility

---

## Frontend Changes (public/templates.php)

### 1. **Page Navigation UI**
Added navigation controls in the preview modal:
- **Previous/Next buttons** - Navigate between pages
- **Page counter** - Shows "Page X of Y"
- **Auto-hide** - Navigation hidden for single-page PDFs

### 2. **JavaScript Enhancements**

#### Variables
```javascript
// Added totalPages tracking
let pdfDoc = null, scale = 1.2, markers = [], currentPage = 1, totalPages = 1;
```

#### PDF Loading
```javascript
// Now tracks total pages and updates UI
totalPages = pdfDoc.numPages;
document.getElementById('totalPages').textContent = totalPages;
updatePageNavigation();
```

#### Navigation Functions
- `updatePageNavigation()` - Enables/disables buttons, shows/hides controls
- `prevPageBtn.onclick` - Go to previous page
- `nextPageBtn.onclick` - Go to next page

#### Keyboard Shortcuts
- **Arrow Left / Page Up** → Previous page
- **Arrow Right / Page Down** → Next page
- **Ctrl+P** → Preview full certificate
- **Ctrl+D** → Download sample PDF

### 3. **Visual Enhancements**
- Page number shown in DPI debug overlay: `Page 2/5 • DPI: 96...`
- Navigation buttons disabled/grayed when at first/last page
- Keyboard shortcut hints updated in status bar

## How It Works

### Single-Page PDFs (Existing Templates)
1. Backend processes 1 page (pageCount = 1)
2. Frontend shows page navigation hidden
3. All fields default to page 1
4. **Works exactly as before** ✅

### Multi-Page PDFs (New Templates)
1. Backend loops through all pages (pageCount = N)
2. Each page imported and rendered separately
3. Fields filtered by page number
4. Frontend shows page navigation
5. Users can navigate and place fields on any page

---

## Field Coordinate Structure

Fields now support page numbers:
```json
{
  "type": "NAME",
  "page": 1,
  "x": 150,
  "y": 100,
  "font_size": 24,
  "font_color": "#000000"
}
```

**Default:** If `page` is not specified, defaults to `1`

## Testing Checklist

### Backend
- [x] Single-page PDFs still work
- [x] Multi-page PDFs import all pages
- [x] Fields appear on correct pages
- [x] Page orientation handled per-page
- [x] No syntax errors

### Frontend
- [x] Page navigation appears for multi-page PDFs
- [x] Page navigation hidden for single-page PDFs
- [x] Previous/Next buttons work correctly
- [x] Keyboard shortcuts functional
- [x] Fields can be placed on any page
- [x] Page counter updates correctly
- [x] No JavaScript errors

---

## Database Considerations

Your field coordinates table should support page numbers:

```sql
-- If column doesn't exist, add it:
ALTER TABLE field_coordinates 
ADD COLUMN page_number INT DEFAULT 1;

-- Ensure existing records have page = 1
UPDATE field_coordinates 
SET page_number = 1 
WHERE page_number IS NULL;
```

## Usage Instructions

### For Administrators

**Uploading Multi-Page Templates:**
1. Go to Templates page
2. Click "Upload New Template"
3. Select a multi-page PDF file
4. Click "Preview"
5. Use **◀ Prev / Next ▶** buttons to navigate pages
6. Place fields on appropriate pages
7. Each field remembers which page it's on
8. Submit template

**Keyboard Shortcuts:**
- `Arrow Keys` or `Page Up/Down` - Navigate pages
- `Ctrl+P` - Preview full certificate
- `Ctrl+D` - Download sample PDF

### For Developers

**Adding Fields Programmatically:**
```php
$fieldCoordinates = [
    [
        'type' => 'NAME',
        'page' => 1,  // First page
        'x' => 150,
        'y' => 100
    ],
    [
        'type' => 'SIGNATURE',
        'page' => 2,  // Second page
        'x' => 200,
        'y' => 500
    ]
];
```

## Next Steps (Optional Enhancements)

1. **Page Thumbnails** - Show small previews of all pages
2. **Bulk Field Placement** - Copy fields across multiple pages
3. **Page Templates** - Save common page layouts
4. **Visual Page Indicator** - Highlight which pages have fields
5. **Drag & Drop Reordering** - Rearrange pages in template

---

## Support

If you encounter any issues:
1. Check browser console for JavaScript errors
2. Verify PDF file is not corrupted
3. Ensure field coordinates include page numbers
4. Test with a simple 2-page PDF first
