PDF::FromHTML::Twig is a Perl module with PDF::FromHTML guts.

SYNOPSIS

(internal use only)

No user-serviceable parts inside.

CL-PDF is a cross-platform Common Lisp library for generating PDF files.

It does not need any third-party tools from Adobe or others. It is used by cl-typesetting to provide a complete typesetting system.

PandaLex is the PDF parsing code from Panda, which has been split into its own project to increase its utility.

It is a flex and bison description of the PDF specification, which allows programmers to define callbacks to handle different document elements.

CAM::PDF::GS is a PDF graphic state.

SYNOPSIS

use CAM::PDF;
my $pdf = CAM::PDF->new($filename);
my $contentTree = $pdf->getPageContentTree(4);
my $gs = $contentTree->computeGS();

This class is used to represent the graphic state at a point in the rendering flow of a PDF page. Much of the functionality is actually based in the parent class, CAM::PDF::GS::NoText.

Subclasses that want to do something useful with text should override the renderText() method.

PDF Split and Merge project is an easy-to-use tool that provides functions to split and merge PDF files or subsections of them.

CAM::PDF::Renderer::Dump can print the graphic state of each node.

SYNOPSIS

use CAM::PDF;
my $pdf = CAM::PDF->new($filename);
my $contentTree = $pdf->getPageContentTree(4);
$contentTree->render("CAM::PDF::Renderer::Dump");

This class is used to print to STDOUT the coordinates of each node of a page layout. It is written both for debugging and as a minimal example of a renderer.

FUNCTIONS

$self->renderText($string)

Prints the string prefixed by its device and user coordinates.

JUnit PDF Report project generates a PDF report from JUnit test results.

It uses Apache Ant to execute the generation, and Apache FOP to render the PDF document.

While automating tests for my company, I found that everything I need is available in the open source community, except printable test reports.

I couldnt sell the JUnitReport HTML reports to users. They see them as a technical artifact, and want to have a report that feels like a sign-off document.

Rather than building a solution in-house, I decided to initiate an open source project for it. I hope I can give something back to the community for everything it gave me.

PDF::Table is a utility class for building table layouts in a PDF::API2 object.

SYNOPSIS

use PDF::API2;
use PDF::Table;

my $pdftable = new PDF::Table;
my $pdf = new PDF::API2(-file => "table_of_lorem.pdf");
my $page = $pdf->page;

# some data to layout
my $some_data =[
["1 Lorem ipsum dolor",
"Donec odio neque, faucibus vel",
"consequat quis, tincidunt vel, felis."],
["Nulla euismod sem eget neque.",
"Donec odio neque",
"Sed eu velit."],
... and so on
];

# build the table layout
$pdftable->table(
# required params
$pdf,
$page,
$some_data,
x => $left_edge_of_table,
w => 570,
start_y => 500,
next_y => 700,
start_h => 300,
next_h => 500,
# some optional params
padding => 5,
padding_right => 10,
background_color_odd => "gray",
background_color_even => "lightblue", #cell background color for even rows
);

# do other stuff with $pdf
...

This class is a utility for use with the PDF::API2 module from CPAN. It can be used to display text data in a table layout within the PDF. The text data must be in a 2d array (such as returned by a DBI statement handle fetchall_arrayref() call). The PDF::Table will automatically add as many new pages as necessary to display all of the data.

Various layout properties, such as font, font size, and cell padding and background color can be specified for each column and/or for even/odd rows. Also a (non)repeated header row with different layout properties can be specified.
See the METHODS section for complete documentation of every parameter.
