createpdf.js
      
// function that creates BytescoutPDF instance (defined in BytescoutPDF.js script which have to be included into the same page) // then calls API methods and properties to create PDF document // and returns created BytescoutPDF object instance // this CreatePDF() function is called from Sample.html // IsInternetExplorer8OrLower parameter indicates if we use IE8 or lower so we CAN'T use images (as it requires HTML5 Canvas available in IE9 or higher). Other browsers should be working fine // IMPORTANT ABOUT IMAGES: // When using Firefox or IE, pdf generation may fail because images are not accessible when pdf generation works // the solution for this issue is to preload images in main HTML document before running PDF generation // to preload images, put them into hidden div block "pdfreportimages" - you can see it in the sample.html right after <body> opening tag function CreatePDF(IsInternetExplorer8OrLower) { // create BytescoutPDF object instance var pdf = new BytescoutPDF(); // set document properties: Title, subject, keywords, author name and creator name pdf.propertiesSet("Sample document title", "Sample subject", "keyword1, keyword 2, keyword3", "Document Author Name", "Document Creator Name"); // add new page pdf.pageAdd(); // set font size pdf.fontSetSize(48); // set Symbol symbolic font pdf.fontSetName('Symbol'); // info: char table of Symbol font http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbol_font pdf.textAdd(100, 50, '\u0041'); pdf.textAdd(200, 50, '\u0022'); // set ZapfDingbats symbolic font pdf.fontSetName('ZapfDingbats'); // info: char table of ZapfDingbats font http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2700.pdf pdf.textAdd(100, 150, "\u2780"); pdf.textAdd(200, 150, "\u2776"); // set zapf dingbats built in font to use pdf.fontSetName("zapfDingbats"); pdf.fontSetSize(25); // draw symbols, see map of letters to symbols at https://images.google.com/?q=zapf+dingbats+font+symbols pdf.textSetBox(10,150,500,300); // define output rectangle pdf.textAddToBox("1234567890!@#$%^&*()ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz") // set symbol font pdf.fontSetName("Symbol"); pdf.fontSetSize(25); // draw symbols, see map of letters to symbols at https://images.google.com/?q=zapf+dingbats+font+symbols pdf.textSetBox(10,310,500,800); // define output rectangle pdf.textAddToBox("1234567890!@#$%^&*()ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz") // return BytescoutPDF object instance return pdf; }
