Constructor Details

#initialize(dest: nil, uri: nil, file: nil, border: false, border_color: nil) ⇒ LinkLayer

Creates a new LinkLayer object.

The following arguments are allowed (note that only one of dest, uri or file may be specified):

dest

The destination array or a name of a named destination for in-document links.

uri

The URI to link to.

file

The file that should be opened or, if it refers to an application, the application that should be launched. Can either be a string or a Filespec object. Also see: HexaPDF::Type::FileSpecification.

border

If set to true, a standard border is used. Also accepts an array that adheres to the rules for annotation borders.

border_color

Defines the border color. Can be an array with 0 (transparent), 1 (grayscale), 3 (RGB) or 4 (CMYK) values.

Examples:

LinkLayer.new(dest: [page, :XYZ, nil, nil, nil], border: true)
LinkLayer.new(uri: "https://my.example.com/path", border: [5 5 2])
