Hi
I am aiming to read a RTFD from disk, edit its contents and write
the output to a PDF file. I would like the PDF to be a hybrid of
text and graphics i.e. not just a bit map representation of the
RTFD. Finally, I hope that the PDF page size will be the same as
the RTFD template. I will have two templates - US Letter and A4.
I have read the docs and think I can do the above. However, when I
test the PDF output with the code below I get an empty PDF. The
problem is that myRect is 0 by 0. I have also tried [theTemplate
frame] also to get a rectangle but it is 0 by 0 also. BTW the RTFD
output is OK so there appears to be no problems with reading the
template.
If you're looking to produce PDFs with given page size, or multiple
pages, you'll want to look at the printing system.
Roughly, you get an NSPrintInfo instance for the size desired,
setJobDisposition to NSPrintSaveJob (and set the string for the file
in NSSavePath) as well as any other print options you want.
Then just make an NSPrintOperation with your view and the print info,
set to to not show panels, and runOperation.
