Overview

Represents a page of a PDF document.

A page object contains the meta information for a page. Most of the fields are independent from the page’s content like the /Dur field. However, some of them (like /Resources or /UserUnit) influence how or if the page’s content can be rendered correctly.

A number of field values can also be inherited: /Resources, /MediaBox, /CropBox, /Rotate. Field inheritance means that if a field is not set on the page object itself, the value is taken from the nearest page tree ancestor that has this value set.

Class Method Details

.media_box(paper_size, orientation: :portrait) ⇒ Object

Returns the media box for the given paper size or array.

If an array is specified, it needs to contain exactly four numbers. The orientation argument is not used in this case.

See PAPER_SIZE for the defined paper sizes.

Instance Method Details

#[](name) ⇒ Object

Returns the value for the entry name.

If name is an inheritable value and the value has not been set on the page object, its value is retrieved from the ancestor page tree nodes.

#box(type = :crop, rectangle = nil) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

page.box(type = :crop)              -> box
page.box(type = :crop, rectangle)   -> rectangle

If no rectangle is given, returns the rectangle defining a certain kind of box for the page. Otherwise sets the value for the given box type to rectangle (an array with four values or a HexaPDF::Rectangle).

This method should be used instead of directly accessing any of /MediaBox, /CropBox, /BleedBox, /ArtBox or /TrimBox because it also takes the fallback values into account!

The following types are allowed:

:media

The media box defines the boundaries of the medium the page is to be printed on.

:crop

The crop box defines the region to which the contents of the page should be clipped when it is displayed or printed. The default is the media box.

:bleed

The bleed box defines the region to which the contents of the page should be clipped when output in a production environment. The default is the crop box.

:trim

The trim box defines the intended dimensions of the page after trimming. The default value is the crop box.

:art

The art box defines the region of the page’s meaningful content as intended by the author. The default is the crop box.

#canvas(type: :page, translate_origin: true) ⇒ Object

Returns the requested type of canvas for the page.

There are potentially three different canvas objects, one for each of the types :underlay, :page, and :overlay. The canvas objects are cached once they are created so that their graphics states are correctly retained without the need for parsing the contents. This also means that on subsequent invocations the graphic states of the canvases might already be changed.

type

Can either be

  • :page for getting the canvas for the page itself (only valid for initially empty pages)

  • :overlay for getting the canvas for drawing over the page contents

  • :underlay for getting the canvas for drawing unter the page contents

translate_origin

Specifies whether the origin should automatically be translated into the lower-left corner of the crop box.

Note that this argument is only used for the first invocation for every canvas type. So if a canvas was initially requested with this argument set to false and then with true, it won’t have any effect as the cached canvas is returned.

To check whether the origin has been translated or not, use

canvas.pos(0, 0)

and check whether the result is [0, 0]. If it is, then the origin has not been translated.

#copy_inherited_valuesObject

Copies the page’s inherited values from the ancestor page tree nodes into a hash and returns the hash.

  self
end

#flatten_annotations(annotations = ) ⇒ Object

Flattens all or the given annotations of the page. Returns an array with all the annotations that couldn’t be flattened because they don’t have an appearance stream.

Flattening means making the appearances of the annotations part of the content stream of the page and deleting the annotations themselves. Invisible and hidden fields are deleted but not rendered into the content stream.

If an annotation is a form field widget, only the widget will be deleted but not the form field itself.

end

#rotate(angle, flatten: false) ⇒ Object

Rotates the page angle degrees counterclockwise where angle has to be a multiple of 90.

Positive values rotate the page to the left, negative values to the right. If flatten is true, the rotation is not done via the page’s meta (i.e. the /Rotate key) data but by rotating the canvas itself and all other necessary objects like the various page boxes and annotations.

Notes:

  • The given angle is applied in addition to a possibly already existing rotation (specified via the /Rotate key) and does not replace it.

  • Specifying 0 for angle is valid and means that no additional rotation should be applied. The only meaningful usage of 0 for angle is when flatten is set to true (so that the /Rotate key is removed and the existing rotation information incorporated into the canvas, page boxes and annotations).

  • The /Rotate key of a page object describes the angle in a clockwise orientation but this method uses counterclockwise rotation to be consistent with other rotation methods (e.g. HexaPDF::Content::Canvas#rotate).

#to_form_xobject(reference: true) ⇒ Object

Creates a Form XObject from the page’s dictionary and contents for the given PDF document.

If reference is true, the page’s contents is referenced when possible to avoid unnecessary decoding/encoding.

Note 1: The created Form XObject is not added to the document automatically!

Note 2: If reference is false and if a canvas is used on this page (see #canvas), this method should only be called once the contents of the page has been fully defined. The reason is that during the copying of the content stream data the contents may be modified to make it a fully valid content stream.
