Hi all.
I have just tried the new PDFDocument function and built a simple app (using the Xojo example code) to create the “Hello world” PDF
I am building for a Raspberry Pi
The simple code is working so far. but every time I run it I get these Fontconfig warnings and error.
I haven’t really done any pdf creation on Linux / RPi before and am not familiar with the font frameworks on Linux.
Can anyone shed some light on the warnings / errors and how to address them please.
For reference - the code is below and the warning / error output quoted at the end.
Regards - Dave
Var MyPDF As PDFDocument
MyPDF = New PDFDocument(500, 1000)
Var g As Graphics = MyPDF.Graphics
g.DrawingColor = &C00ff00
Var x, y As Integer
Var size As Integer = 200
Var offset As Integer = size / 2
x = MyPDF.Graphics.Width / 2
y = MyPDF.Graphics.Height / 2
g.FillOval(x - offset, y - offset, size, size)
Var helloWorld As String = "Hello PDF World"
g.FontUnit = FontUnits.Pixel
g.FontSize = 20
g.Bold = True
g.DrawingColor = &cffffff
Var textWidth As Integer = g.TextWidth(HelloWorld) / 2
Var textHeight As Integer = (g.TextHeight / 2) - g.FontAscent
g.DrawText(helloWorld, x - textWidth, y - textHeight)
