Re^4: PDF::Create - help with tabulation

roboticus,

Sorry to put you through all that work, I was just wondering if when creating the object there was a command / parameter to define margins and spacing.

PDF is a standard, but it's more like coding in machine language versus working with Perl.

Thank you

flexvault: Sorry to put you through all that work Heh ... one man's work is another man's relaxation. I did it only because you mentioned the module and it looked interesting enough to give it a try. Yeah, PDF is kind of amusing... a combined platform and language. I get dragged into it every once in a while. I keep thinking I should learn PostScript, but no-one has waved any money at me, and it's not interesting enough yet to rise high enough on my "list of interesting things to do" for me to dig into it. Typically my exposure to it is just enough to remind me of it, and I learn just enough to get the current job done, and then forget about it for another year or two... ...roboticus When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.

Gavin: I find painting rooms relaxing too. But you're probably not local .... ;^) As far as decorating .... you'd probably be best to reconsider, unless you like "early american Hamfest", or "tech tornado". (Seriously, my place is full of random technical junk. It looks like a tornado picked up the Dayton hamvention and dropped it onto my house. If I could move all this stuff out of the way, I could paint my place instead of all my friends places. Update: Fixed salutation--For some reason, I was on automatic. I apparently thought I was replying to some bloke named "roboticus", rather than Gavin. ...roboticus When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.	[reply]
