Module: PDF::Writer::Graphics

Included in:
PDF::Writer
Defined in:
lib/gems/pdf-writer-1.1.8/lib/pdf/writer/graphics.rb

Overview

This module contains graphics primitives. Objects that include this module must respond to #add_content.

The PDF::Writer coordinate system is in PDF userspace units. The coordinate system in PDF::Writer is slightly different than might be expected, in that (0, 0) is at the lower left-hand corner of the canvas (page), not the normal top left-hand corner of the canvas. (See the diagram below.)

 Y     Y
0+-----+X
 |     |
 |     |
 |     |
0+-----+X
 0     0

Each primitive provided below indicates the New Point, or the coordinates new drawing point at the completion of the drawing operation. Drawing operations themselves do not draw or fill the path. This must be done by one of the stroke or fill operators, #stroke, #close_stroke, #fill, #close_fill, #fill_stroke, or #close_fill_stroke.

Drawing operations return self (the canvas) so that operations may be chained.

Instance Method Details

#add_image(image, x, y, width = nil, height = nil, image_info = nil, link = nil) ⇒ Object

Add an image from a loaded image (JPEG or PNG) resource at position (x, y) (the lower left-hand corner of the image) and scaled to width by height units. If provided, image_info is a PDF::Writer::Graphics::ImageInfo object.

In PDF::Writer 1.1 or later, the new link parameter is a hash with two keys:

:type

The type of link, either :internal or :external.

:target

The destination of the link. For an :internal link, this is an internal cross-reference destination. For an :external link, this is an URI.

This will automatically make the image a clickable link if set.

#add_image_from_file(image, x, y, width = nil, height = nil, link = nil) ⇒ Object

Add an image from a file to the current page at position (x, y) (the lower left-hand corner of the image). The image will be scaled to width by height units. The image may be a PNG or JPEG image.

The image parameter may be a filename or an object that returns the full image data when #read is called with no parameters (such as an IO object). If ‘open-uri’ is loaded, then the image name may be an URI.

In PDF::Writer 1.1 or later, the new link parameter is a hash with two keys:

:type

The type of link, either :internal or :external.

:target

The destination of the link. For an :internal link, this is an internal cross-reference destination. For an :external link, this is an URI.

This will automatically make the image a clickable link if set.

#circle_at(x, y, r) ⇒ Object

Draws a circle of radius r with the centre-point at (x, y) as a complete subpath. The drawing point will be moved to the centre-point upon completion of the drawing the circle.

#closeObject

Close the current path by appending a straight line segment from the drawing point to the starting point of the path. If the path is closed, this does nothing. This operator terminates the current subpath.

#close_fill(rule = nil) ⇒ Object

Close the current path by appending a straight line segment from the drawing point to the starting point of the path, and then fill it. This does the same as #close followed by #fill.

end

#close_fill_stroke(rule = nil) ⇒ Object

Closes, fills and then strokes the path. Open subpaths are explicitly closed before being filled (as if #close and then #fill_stroke had been called). This is the same as constructing two identical path objects, calling #fill on one and #stroke on the other. Paths filled and stroked in this manner are treated as if they were one object for PDF transparency purposes (PDF transparency is not yet supported by PDF::Writer).

See #fill for more information on fill rules.

#fill(rule = nil) ⇒ Object

Fills the path. Open subpaths are implicitly closed before being filled. PDF offers two methods for determining the fill region. The first is called the “nonzero winding number” and is the default fill. The second is called “even-odd”.

Use the even-odd rule (called with #fill(:even_odd)) with caution, as this will cause certain portions of the path to be considered outside of the fill region, resulting in interesting cutout patterns.

Fills and then strokes the path. Open subpaths are implicitly closed before being filled. This is the same as constructing two identical path objects, calling #fill on one and #stroke on the other. Paths filled and stroked in this manner are treated as if they were one object for PDF transparency purposes (the PDF transparency model is not yet supported by PDF::Writer).

#image(image, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Add an image easily to a PDF document. image is the name of a JPG or PNG image. options is a Hash:

:pad

The number of PDF userspace units that will be on all sides of the image. The default is 5 units.

:width

The desired width of the image. The image will be resized to this width with the aspect ratio kept. If unspecified, the image’s natural width will be used.

:resize

How to resize the image, either :width (resizes the image to be as wide as the margins) or :full (resizes the image to be as large as possible). May be a numeric value, used as a multiplier for the image size (e.g., 0.5 will shrink the image to half-sized). If this and :width are unspecified, the image’s natural size will be used. Mutually exclusive with the <tt>:width<tt> option.

:justification

The placement of the image. May be :center, :right, or :left. Defaults to :left.

:border

The border options. No default border. If specified, must be either true, which uses the default border, or a Hash.

:link

Makes the image a clickable link.

Image borders are specified as a hash with two options:

:color

The colour of the border. Defaults to 50% grey.

:style

The stroke style of the border. This must be a StrokeStyle object and defaults to the default line.

Image links are defined as a hash with two options:

:type

The type of link, either :internal or :external.

:target

The destination of the link. For an :internal link, this is an internal cross-reference destination. For an :external link, this is an URI.

#transform_matrix(a, b, c, d, e, f) ⇒ Object

Transforms the coordinate axis with the appended matrix. All transformations (including those above) are performed with this matrix. The transformation matrix is:

+-     -+
| a c e |
| b d f |
| 0 0 1 |
+-     -+

The six values are represented as a six-digit vector: [ a b c d e f ]

  • Axis translation uses [ 1 0 0 1 x y ] where x and y are the new (0,0) coordinates in the old axis system.

  • Scaling uses [ sx 0 0 sy 0 0 ] where sx and sy are the scaling factors.

  • Rotation uses [ cos(a) sin(a) -sin(a) cos(a) 0 0 ] where a is the angle, measured in radians.

  • X axis skewing uses [ 1 0 tan(a) 1 0 0 ] where a is the angle, measured in radians.

  • Y axis skewing uses [ 1 tan(a) 0 1 0 0 ] where a is the angle, measured in radians.
