Constant Summary collapse

VERSION =

The version of PDF::Writer.

'1.1.8'
FONT_PATH =

The system font path. The sytem font path will be determined differently for each operating system.

Win32

Uses ENV/Fonts as the system font path. There is an extension that will handle this better, but until and unless it is distributed with the standard Ruby Windows installer, PDF::Writer will not depend upon it.

OS X

The fonts are found in /System/Library/Fonts.

Linux

The font path list will be found (usually) in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf or /usr/etc/fonts/fonts.conf. This XML file will be parsed (using REXML) to provide the value for FONT_PATH.

[]

Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}) {|_self| ... } ⇒ Writer

Creates a new PDF document as a writing canvas. It accepts three named parameters:

:paper

Specifies the size of the default page in PDF::Writer. This may be a four-element array of coordinates specifying the lower-left (xll, yll) and upper-right (xur, yur) corners, a two-element array of width and height in centimetres, or a page name as defined in PAGE_SIZES.

:orientation

The orientation of the page, either long (:portrait) or wide (:landscape). This may be used to swap the width and the height of the page.

:version

The feature set available to the document is limited by the PDF version. Setting this version restricts the feature set available to PDF::Writer. PDF::Writer currently supports PDF version 1.3 features and does not yet support advanced features from PDF 1.4, 1.5, or 1.6.

Yields:

  • (_self)

Yield Parameters:

  • _self (PDF::Writer)

    the object that the method was called on

i

Italic (or oblique) fonts. Examples: Helvetica-Oblique, Courier-Oblique, Times-Italic.

bi

Bold italic fonts. Examples Helvetica-BoldOblique, Courier-BoldOblique, Times-BoldItalic.

ib

Italic bold fonts. Generally defined the same as bi font styles. Examples: Helvetica-BoldOblique, Courier-BoldOblique, Times-BoldItalic.

:top_margin

The top margin.

:bottom_margin

The bottom margin.

:bleed_size

The size of the bleed area in points. Default 12.

:mark_length

The length of the prepress marks in points. Default 18.

The prepress marks are added to the loose objects and will appear on all pages.

Yields:

#add_destination(label, style, *params) ⇒ Object

Create a labelled destination within the document. The label is the name which will be used for <c:ilink> destinations.

XYZ

The viewport will be opened at position (left, top) with zoom percentage. params must have three values representing left, top, and zoom, respectively. If the values are “null”, the current parameter values are unchanged.

Fit

Fit the page to the viewport (horizontal and vertical). params will be ignored.

FitH

Fit the page horizontally to the viewport. The top of the viewport is set to the first value in params.

FitV

Fit the page vertically to the viewport. The left of the viewport is set to the first value in params.

FitR

Fits the page to the provided rectangle. params must have four values representing the left, bottom, right, and top positions, respectively.

FitB

Fits the page to the bounding box of the page. params is ignored.

FitBH

Fits the page horizontally to the bounding box of the page. The top position is defined by the first value in params.

FitBV

Fits the page vertically to the bounding box of the page. The left position is defined by the first value in params.

Add text to the page, but ensure that it fits within a certain width. If it does not fit then put in as much as possible, breaking at word boundaries; return the remainder. justification and angle can also be specified for the text.

This will display the text; if it goes beyond the width width, it will backttrack to the previous space or hyphen and return the remainder of the text.

justification

:left, :right, :center, or :full

#current_font!Object

Selects the current font based on defined font families and the current text state. As noted in #font_families, a “bi” font can be defined differently than an “ib” font. It should not be possible to have a “bb” text state, but if one were to show up, an entry for the #font_families would have to be defined to select anything other than the default font. This function is to be called whenever the current text state is changed; it will update the current font to whatever the appropriate font defined in the font family.

When the user calls #select_font, both the current base font and the current font will be reset; this function only changes the current font, not the current base font.

This will probably not be needed by end users.

#move_pointer(dy, make_space = false) ⇒ Object

Used to change the vertical position of the writing point. The pointer is moved down the page by dy (that is, #y is reduced by dy), so if the pointer is to be moved up, a negative number must be used. Moving up the page will not move to the previous page because of limitations in the way that PDF::Writer works. The writing point will be limited to the top margin position.

If make_space is true and a new page is forced, then the pointer will be moved down on the new page. This will allow space to be reserved for graphics.

#new_page(insert = false, page = nil, pos = :after) ⇒ Object

  # do stuff here
reopen_object(ob)     # Reopens the custom object.

… I think. I haven’t examined the full details to be sure of what this is doing, but the code works.

#select_font(font, encoding = nil) ⇒ Object

If the named font is not loaded, then load it and make the required PDF objects to represent the font. If the font is already loaded, then make it the current font.

The parameter encoding applies only when the font is first being loaded; it may not be applied later. It may either be an encoding name or a hash. The Hash must contain two keys:

:encoding

The name of the encoding. Either none, WinAnsiEncoding, MacRomanEncoding, or MacExpertEncoding. For symbolic fonts, an encoding of none is recommended with a differences Hash.

:differences

This Hash value is a mapping between character byte values (0 .. 255) and character names from the AFM file for the font.

The standard PDF encodings are detailed fully in the PDF Reference version 1.6, Appendix D.

Note that WinAnsiEncoding is not the same as Windows code page 1252 (roughly equivalent to latin-1), Most characters map, but not all. The encoding value currently defaults to WinAnsiEncoding.

If the font’s “natural” encoding is desired, then it is necessary to specify the encoding parameter as { :encoding => nil }.

Put page numbers on the pages from the current page. Place them relative to the coordinates (x, y) with the text horizontally relative according to pos, which may be :left, :right, or :center. The page numbers will be written on each page using pattern.

When pattern is rendered, <PAGENUM> will be replaced with the current page number; <TOTALPAGENUM> will be replaced with the total number of pages in the page numbering scheme. The default pattern is “<PAGENUM> of <TOTALPAGENUM>”.

Each time page numbers are started, a new page number scheme will be started. The scheme number will be returned.

#text(text, options = {}) ⇒ Object

This will add a string of text to the document, starting at the current drawing position. It will wrap to keep within the margins, including optional offsets from the left and the right. The text will go to the start of the next line when a return code “n” is found.

Possible options are:

:font_size

The font size to be used. If not specified, is either the last font size or the default font size of 12 points. Setting this value changes the current #font_size.

:left

number, gap to leave from the left margin

:right

number, gap to leave from the right margin

:absolute_left

number, absolute left position (overrides :left)

:absolute_right

number, absolute right position (overrides :right)

:justification

:left, :right, :center, :full

:leading

number, defines the total height taken by the line, independent of the font height.

:spacing

a Floating point number, though usually set to one of 1, 1.5, 2 (line spacing as used in word processing)

Only one of :leading or :spacing should be specified (leading overrides spacing).

If the :test option is true, then this should just check to see if the text is flowing onto a new page or not; returns true or false. Note that the new page test is only sensitive to exceeding the bottom margin of the page. It is not known whether the writing of the text will require a new physical page or whether it will require a new column.
