Using FPDI AND FPDF

I'm trying to use FPDI and FPDF for generating a pdf, but I have a problem when I create a cell. I want to use the fillcolor. So the Cell has a background color.

For now I have like this:

<?php
require_once('fpdf/fpdf.php'); 
require_once('pdf/fpdi.php'); 
$pdf = new FPDI();

$pdf->AddPage(); 

$pdf->setSourceFile('anolis_dopis_a4.pdf'); 
// import page 1 
$tplIdx = $pdf->importPage(1); 
//use the imported page and place it at point 0,0; calculate width and height
//automaticallay and ajust the page size to the size of the imported page 
$pdf->useTemplate($tplIdx, 0, 0, 0, 0, true); 

// now write some text above the imported page 
$pdf->SetFont('Arial', '', '13'); 
$pdf->SetTextColor(0,0,0);
//set position in pdf document
$pdf->SetXY(40, 50);
//first parameter defines the line height
$pdf->Write(0, 'gift code');

$pdf->SetXY(40, 55);
$pdf->Write(0, 'gift code');

//HERE I WANT TO HAVE BACKGROUND COLOR
$pdf->Cell(100,10,"bla bla",1,"left","");

//force the browser to download the output
$pdf->Output('test.pdf', 'D');

?>

I just had the same problem. I found the answer in another topic on this website.

The solution is adding $pdf->setPageMark(); after the $pdf->useTemplate($tplIdx, 0, 0, 0, 0, true);

There are probably more people like me out there who have the same problem and end up here.

$pdf->SetFillColor(227,227,227);
$pdf->Cell(100,10,'bla bla',1,0,'L',TRUE);
