// function that creates BytescoutPDF instance (defined in BytescoutPDF.js script which have to be included into the same page) // then calls API methods and properties to create PDF document // and returns created BytescoutPDF object instance // this CreatePDF() function is called from Sample.html // IsInternetExplorer8OrLower parameter indicates if we use IE8 or lower so we CAN'T use images (as it requires HTML5 Canvas available in IE9 or higher). Other browsers should be working fine // IMPORTANT ABOUT IMAGES: // When using Firefox or IE, pdf generation may fail because images are not accessible when pdf generation works // the solution for this issue is to preload images in main HTML document before running PDF generation // to preload images, put them into hidden div block "pdfreportimages" - you can see it in the sample.html right after opening tag function CreatePDF(IsInternetExplorer8OrLower) { // create BytescoutPDF object instance var pdf = new BytescoutPDF(); // set document properties: Title, subject, keywords, author name and creator name pdf.propertiesSet("Sample document title", "Sample subject", "keyword1, keyword 2, keyword3", "Document Author Name", "Document Creator Name"); pdf.pageAdd(); // draw transparent star pdf.graphicsSetColor("ffff00"); pdf.graphicsSetAlpha(125); var rad=200; var cx=300; var cy=300; pdf.graphicsSetLineWidth(10); for (var an = 0.0; an < Math.PI; an += Math.PI / 20) { var x = rad * Math.sin(an); var y = rad * Math.cos(an); pdf.graphicsDrawLine(cx + x, cy + y, cx - x, cy - y); } // return BytescoutPDF object instance return pdf; }
