Hello monks,
I have used the super search to try to find an example of how to extract text from a pdf file and attach it to another pdf file, but haven't found any good examples. Any help would be greatly appreciated! here is my code so far:
use PDF::API2;
use PDF::Extract;
use CAM::PDF;
use constant mm => 25.4 / 72;
use constant in => 1 / 72;
use constant pt => 1;
#create pdf file and page
my $pdf = PDF::API2->new(-file => "$0.pdf");
my $page = $pdf->page;
$font = $pdf->corefont('Helvetica-Bold');
#create a header
my $header_text = $page->text;
$header_text->font($font, 24);
$header_text->translate(105/mm, 250/mm);
$header_text->fillcolor('black');
$header_text->text_center('Thank you for your business!');
$pdf-> save();
I added the CAM::PDF modules and PDF::Extract modules because that is what I found. I just haven't figured out to use them yet.. I want to open a file in the working folder called pdfone.pdf and write it to file I created in the code I posted
