NAME

PDF::Haru - Perl interface to Haru Free PDF Library. Haru is a free, cross platform, open-sourced software library for generating PDF.

SYNOPSIS

use PDF::Haru;

# create new document
my $pdf = PDF::Haru::New();

# add page
my $page = $pdf->AddPage();

# set page size and orientation
$page->SetSize(HPDF_PAGE_SIZE_A4, HPDF_PAGE_PORTRAIT);

my $font = $pdf->GetFont("Helvetica", "StandardEncoding");
$page->BeginText();
$page->SetFontAndSize($font, 20);
$page->TextOut(40, 781, "text");
$page->EndText();

$page->Rectangle (30, 30, $page->GetWidth() - 60, $page->GetHeight() - 60);
$page->Stroke();

# save the document to a file
$pdf->SaveToFile("filename.pdf");

# cleanup
$pdf->Free();

METHODS

my $pdf = PDF::Haru::New()

Create an instance of a document object and initialize it.

$pdf->Free()

Revokes a document object and all resources.

$pdf->NewDoc()

Creates new document. If document object already has a document, the current document is revoked.

$pdf->FreeDoc()

Revokes the current document. Keeps loaded resource (such as fonts and encodings) and these resources are recycled when new document required these resources.

$pdf->FreeDocAll()

Revokes the current document and all resources.

$pdf->SaveToFile("filename.pdf")

Saves the current document to a file.

$pdf->SaveAsString()

Returns PDF document as string.

$pdf->SetPagesConfiguration($page_per_pages)

In the default setting, a PDF::Haru object has one "Pages" object as root of pages. All "Page" objects are created as a kid of the "Pages" object. Since a "Pages" object can own only 8191 kids objects, the maximum number of pages are 8191 page.

Additionally, the state that there are a lot of "Page" object under one "Pages" object is not good, because it causes performance degradation of a viewer application.

An application can change the setting of a pages tree by invoking SetPagesConfiguration(). If $page_per_pages parameter is set to more than zero, a two-tier pages tree is created. A root "Pages" object can own 8191 "Pages" object, and each lower "Pages" object can own $page_per_pages "Page" objects. As a result, the maximum number of pages becomes 8191 * $page_per_pages page.

An application cannot invoke SetPageConfiguration() after a page is added to document.

$pdf->SetPageLayout(layout)

Sets how the page should be displayed. If this attribute is not set, the setting of a viewer application is used.

layout is one of following constants

HPDF_PAGE_LAYOUT_SINGLE: Only one page is displayed.

HPDF_PAGE_LAYOUT_TWO_COLUMN_LEFT: Display the pages in two column. The page of the odd number is displayed left.

Example:: $pdf->SetPageLayout(HPDF_PAGE_LAYOUT_ONE_COLUMN)

$pdf->GetPageLayout()

Returns the current setting for page layout.

$pdf->SetPageMode(mode)

Sets how the document should be displayed.

mode is one of following constants

HPDF_PAGE_MODE_USE_NONE: Display the document with neither outline nor thumbnail.
HPDF_PAGE_MODE_USE_OUTLINE: Display the document with outline pain.
HPDF_PAGE_MODE_USE_THUMBS: Display the document with thumbnail pain.
