Dyna PDF

[Tom_Russell]

I am evaluating DynaPDF and need to set some text in a certain spot. I do it like this:

call pdf.WriteText x, 80.0, Summary

Summary is just some really long multiple sentence stuff I pass in. Is there a way to make this wrappable? I know I can use Call pdf.WriteFText and set it to left align and that makes it wrappable but it does not give me the option to set the y position.

Ive looked in the docs but its so massive.

Thanks.

I don’t have this plugin, but it looks like WriteFTextEx takes an x and a y.

[Tom_Russell]

No it doesnt. Thats why I was asking.

From this page:

DynaPDFMBS.WriteFTextEx(PosX as double, PosY as double, Width as double, Height as double, Align as integer, aText as string) as Boolean
method, DynaPDF, MBS DynaPDF Plugin (dynapdf3), class DynaPDFMBS,
Plugin version: 7.6, Mac: Yes, Win: Yes, Linux: Yes, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: The function prints a formatted text exactly in the same way as WriteFText().
Notes:
The text parameter is converted to unicode.
Also check the dynapdf manual on the pdfWriteFTextExW function.

The PageBreak event is called when needed by the plugin.

It seems to me that PosX and PosY would be the text position, doesn’t it?

yes your right, I didnt read your answer the first time. Thanks

Maybe you look on the Text Formatting sample? It shows how to make it use three columns on a page.
