PurePDF Version 2.0

[Intrigued]

@Intrigued :
Do you have the following files installed in the UserLibraries

• mem
  pdf
  pdfDraw

Or try these downloads :
PurePDF
PDFDraw

Or can you send me the files mentioned above from your UserLibraries ?

That seems to have fixed the problem (downloading, installing the .exes you offered up).

Another point...

I noticed that when I type in pdf... no intellisense menu comes up. I have to add the underscore and then I have to guess at the first letter of any of the functions, then the intellisense pops up.

Now, with the ipf functions no underscore is needed and the intellisense brings up all of the functions.

Can you make the pdf functions intellisense menu show all pdf functions and make it so that we do not have to type the underscore to see such functions? (again, I like how the ipf functions intellisense works and would like to see that duplicated to the pdf intellisense (again, adding in all of the functions to that intellisense menu).

If so... that would be a big help as I learn how to use your plugin!

Thanks in any case,

[LuckyLuke]

@Thorsten1867
The ipf functions (Internal pdf functions) are provided to create extension libraries. Be carefull using them because they might screw up the pdf. The pdfDraw is a good example on using the ipf functions.

@Intrigued
Sorry. I can't help you with this. Maybe a question for the IDE creator ?

PDFDraw, the first extension library is available here.
It contains the following functions :

• pdf_Circle()
  pdf_Ellipse()
  pdf_Rotate()
  pdf_Sector()
  pdf_SetDash()

I have a problem. "pdf missing". The PBOSL_Version is PBOSL_PurePDF. Is there a check of libname?

[LuckyLuke]

@tv-soft
There is no check of libname.
Guess you have to recompile pdfDraw with PBOSL_PurePDF installed.

Question : How can I add changes to the PBOSL_PurePDF if needed ?

I have create a account on webPM (it's CVS like, very easy) for you, see PM.

I've edit my program to use the new version of PurePdf and I'm missing 'pdf_DisplayPreferences("HideToolbar,DisplayDocTitle")' and 'pdf_IncludeJS("print(true);")'.

Can I hope, that you insert it again?

Wow! This is great stuff! I love your PurePDF library!



Keep up the good work!

[ts-soft]

PBOSL_pdfDraw also updatet to 1.01

[Thorsten1867]

I think, I've found two bugs:
"pdf_Ln(5)" -> the height is always 0
"pdf_SetRightMargin(25)" -> doesn't work (only "pdf_SetMargins(25, 15, 25)" works correct)

[LuckyLuke]

New version (2.02) available at www.smollies.be. Will add it to PBOSL soon.

Solves pdf_SetRightMargin() bug and pdf_BookMark() bug.
