Prima::PS::PDF - PDF interface to Prima::Drawable
use Prima; use Prima::PS::PDF; my $x = Prima::PS::PDF-> create( onSpool => sub { open F, ">> ./test.pdf"; binmode F; print F $_[1]; close F; }); die "error:$@" unless $x-> begin_doc; $x-> font-> size( 30); $x-> text_out( "hello!", 100, 100); $x-> end_doc;
Realizes the Prima library interface to PDF v1.4. The module is designed to be compliant with Prima::Drawable interface. All properties' behavior is as same as Prima::Drawable's, except those described below.
Can be set while object is in normal stage - cannot be changed if document is opened. Applies to fillPattern realization and general pixel-to-point and vice versa calculations
- ::region is not realized ( yet?)
could be 0 or 1
physical page dimension, in points
non-printable page area, an array of 4 integers: left, bottom, right and top margins in points.
if 1, a 90 degrees rotated document layout is assumed
along with Prima::Drawable::translate provide PS-specific transformation matrix manipulations. ::rotate is number, measured in degrees, counter-clockwise. ::scale is array of two numbers, respectively x- and y-scale. 1 is 100%, 2 is 200% etc.
Helpers for translation from pixel to points and vice versa.
Prima::PS::Drawable is not responsible for output of generated document, it just calls ::spool when document is closed through ::end_doc. By default just skips data. Prima::PS::Printer handles spooling logic.
Returns Prima::Application::fonts, however with iso10646-1 encoding only. That effectively allows only unicode output.
