UseTags & wrap_text

Wed, 2010-08-25 19:12 — LLGran

The wrap text functions don't check if UseTags=TRUE. Doesn't this throws pdf_text_width() and pdf_GetNumFittingChars() calculations off leaving them in?

Stripping the tags, StripBoldItal() + strip color", would return a closer width calculation excluding the bold/italic font width differences. If each word is stripped in the text parameter sent to pdf_text_width() then the original word, including tags, could be appended to the line.

I'm having a similar

I'm having a similar problem, if I have the following two strings:

mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mm
wwww wwwww ww w www wwww w ww ww ww wwww ww www ww

both are 50 characters in length.

If I put both into a pdf document with the following code (where ch_string is the variable containing the characters):

RUN pdf_set_TextY("Spdf",480).
RUN pdf_Wrap_Text ("Spdf",ch_string,23,71,"left",OUTPUT lin_line).

Then it wraps the strings as follows (in different columns):

mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm
mm
wwww wwwww ww w www wwww w ww ww ww wwww ww
www ww

Any ideas on how to fix it?
