Re: Perl to PDF

I feel your pain -- getting started with PDF modules in Perl is an uphill battle. I don't know if this will help, but here's a little snippet (posted in the dimly-lit "Snippets" wing of the Monastery): One PDF file for a set of images.

You might also try putting "PDF::Create" or "PDF::API2" into Super Search, to find whatever nodes (in whatever sections) might contain other code examples using these modules.

Thanks - unfortunately this is for an image. What I can't figure out is why all the examples deal with single lines or images and neglect to deal with what is surely the most common case? - a text based document. I'd just like to be able to write out lines to a PDF rather than a file... Will also try your supersearch suggestions. Meantime if anyone has any code they'd be willing to share for printing out a few lines to a PDF file that would be awesome!	[reply]
