NAME

PDF::API3::Compat::API2 - A Perl Module Chain to faciliate the Creation and Modification of High-Quality "Portable Document Format (aka. PDF)" Files.

SYNOPSIS

use PDF::API3::Compat::API2;
#
$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->new;
$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->open('some.pdf');
$page = $pdf->page;
$page = $pdf->openpage($pagenum);
$img = $pdf->image('some.jpg');
$font = $pdf->corefont('Times-Roman');
$font = $pdf->ttfont('TimesNewRoman.ttf');

GENERIC METHODS

$pdf = PDF::API->new %opts

Creates a new pdf-file object. If you know beforehand to save the pdf to file you can give the '-file' option, to minimize possible memory requirements later-on.

Example:

$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->new();
...
print $pdf->stringify;

$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->new();
...
$pdf->saveas("our/new.pdf");

$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->new(-file => 'our/new.pdf');
...
$pdf->save;
$pdf = PDF::API->open $pdffile

Opens an existing PDF for modification.

Example:

$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->open('my/old.pdf');
...
$pdf->saveas("our/new.pdf");

$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->open('our/to/be/updated.pdf');
...
$pdf->update;
$pdf = PDF::API->openScalar $pdfstream

Opens an existing PDF-stream for modification.

Example:

open($fh,'our/stream.pdf') or die "$@";
@pdf = <$fh>;
$pdf = PDF::API->openScalar(join('',@pdf));
...
$pdf->saveas('our/new.pdf');
$pdf->preferences %opts

Controls viewing-preferences for the pdf.

Initial Page Options:

-fit => 1 ... Display the page designated by page, with its contents magnified just enough to fit the entire page within the window both horizontally and vertically. If the required horizontal and vertical magnification factors are different, use the smaller of the two, centering the page within the window in the other dimension.

-fith => $top ... Display the page designated by page, with the vertical coordinate top positioned at the top edge of the window and the contents of the page magnified just enough to fit the entire width of the page within the window.

-fitv => $left ... Display the page designated by page, with the horizontal coordinate left positioned at the left edge of the window and the contents of the page magnified just enough to fit the entire height of the page within the window.

-fitr => [ $left, $bottom, $right, $top ] ... Display the page designated by page, with its contents magnified just enough to fit the rectangle specified by the coordinates left, bottom, right, and top entirely within the window both horizontally and vertically. If the required horizontal and vertical magnification factors are different, use the smaller of the two, centering the rectangle within the window in the other dimension.

-fitb => 1 ... Display the page designated by page, with its contents magnified just enough to fit its bounding box entirely within the window both horizontally and vertically. If the required horizontal and vertical magnification factors are different, use the smaller of the two, centering the bounding box within the window in the other dimension.

-xyz => [ $left, $top, $zoom ] ... Display the page designated by page, with the coordinates (left, top) positioned at the top-left corner of the window and the contents of the page magnified by the factor zoom. A zero (0) value for any of the parameters left, top, or zoom specifies that the current value of that parameter is to be retained unchanged.

Returns a new page object or inserts-and-returns a new page at $index.

Note: on $index

-1 ... is inserted before the last page
1 ... is inserted before page number 1 (the first page)
0 ... is simply appended
$pageobj = $pdf->openpage $index

Returns the pageobject of page $index.

Note: on $index

-1,0 ... returns the last page
1 ... returns page number 1

Example: (A Document with 99 Pages)

$page = $pdf->openpage(1);   # returns the first page
$page = $pdf->openpage(99);  # returns the last page
$page = $pdf->openpage(-1);  # returns the last page
$page = $pdf->openpage(999); # returns undef
$xoform = $pdf->importPageIntoForm $sourcepdf, $sourceindex

Returns the pageobject of page $targetindex, imported from $sourcepdf,$sourceindex.

Note: on $index

-1,0 ... returns the last page
1 ... returns page number 1

Note: you can specify a page object instead as $targetindex so that the contents of the sourcepage will be 'merged into'.

Example:

$pdf = PDF::API3::Compat::API2->new;
