PDFlib サンプル集(クックブック)

本サンプルプログラムは、PDF 文書生成ライブラリーの実装である PDFlib の基本的な機能を実際のプログラムで紹介したものです。

本サイトでダウンロードした PDFlib は、一部機能の制限を除き、評価版として無償でお使いいただけます。

タブによるリーダー

目次のように左のコンテンツと右のコンテンツの間にタブを指定することで、そのスペースをリーダーで埋める PDFlib のサンプルプログラムです。

目次を表すテキストフローを配置します。行毎に、目次ではテキストのエントリと対象となるページ番号の間にタブを含めます。タブによって定義された空間は、リーダーとして指定された文字で埋められます。


/*
 * Dot leaders with tabs:
 * Use leaders to fill the space defined by tabs between left-aligned and
 * right-aligned text, such as in a table of contents.
 * 
 * Place a Textflow representing a table of contents. In each line, the table
 * of contents contains tabs between the text entry and the corresponding
 * page number. The space defined by the tab will be filled with the
 * characters specified as leaders.
 *
 * Required software: PDFlib/PDFlib+PDI/PPS 9
 * Required data: none
