NAME

PDF::Make::FieldPtr - Low-level XS form field pointer API

SYNOPSIS

use PDF::Make;
use PDF::Make::FieldPtr;

my $doc = PDF::Make::Document->new;
$doc->add_page;

# Create a text field (returns native field pointer object)
my $field = PDF::Make::FieldPtr::text(
	$doc,
	'email',
	72, 700, 240, 20,
);

$field->set_value('user@example.com');

# Attach to page
my $page = $doc->get_page(0);
$field->add_to_page($page);

DESCRIPTION

PDF::Make::FieldPtr exposes low-level field construction and mutation APIs backed by libpdfmake through XS.

This module is a namespace loader only; implementation lives in xs/form.xs and src/pdfmake_form.c.

METHODS

The following constructor-style methods are provided by XS:

  • text($doc, $name, $x, $y, $width, $height)

  • checkbox($doc, $name, $x, $y, $width, $height, $on_value = "Yes")

  • radio_group($doc, $name)

  • add_radio_option($group, $x, $y, $width, $height, $value)

  • choice($doc, $name, $x, $y, $width, $height, $combo = 0)

  • combo($doc, $name, $x, $y, $width, $height)

  • listbox($doc, $name, $x, $y, $width, $height)

  • button($doc, $name, $x, $y, $width, $height, $caption)

  • signature($doc, $name, $x, $y, $width, $height) (if enabled)

Accessor and mutator methods are also provided on returned field pointer objects (for example set_value, readonly, required, add_to_page, and related methods).
