Sorry. I have no local patches to pdf4tcl about this. I also have the tickets 19 to 22 open here, they do not come with code either.

Harald Oehlmann posted a comment on ticket #15
I decided to use the patch with full capabilities. A border is just beautiful and it is helpful to find links. I looked into pdflatex and it used color "0 1 1" for hyperlinks and "0 0 1" for internal links. That looks good. So, here is the manual entry: hyperlinkAdd x y width height url ?options? x y width height is the box sensible for the hyperlink click url is the destination URL Possible options are: * -borderwidth: width of the border around the bounding box in display pixels, 0 to hide. Default:...

Dear Peter, please find attached the patch for the command: hyperlinkAdd x y width height url where a hyperlink clickable area is added to the given rectangular PDF region. I had a version which implements a lot of options like: hyperlinkAdd x y width height url -borderwidth 3 -borderradius 15 -bordercolor {0 0 255} -borderon 10 -borderoff 2 -borderhighlight I but this looks old style. tclfpdf just implements the upper command and I think, this is reasonable. Nevertheless, pdflatex shows borders...

Better fix for [#13]

Brian Griffin posted a comment on ticket #13
I'm not aware of a specific command for this. However, the following should work: ~~~~ set str "Example String Value" set index "end-3" set intIndex [lindex [lseq [string length $str]] $index] This technique should work for both strings and lists. proc intIndexForString {stringValue index} { return [lindex [lseq [string length $stringValue]] $index] } proc intIndexForList {listValue index} { return [lindex [lseq [llength $listValue]] $index] } ~~~ These functions should have O(1) performance regardless...
-
I made a fix that makes it handle it a bit more gracefully. End-style index will be treated as not existing for now. Is there a nice way to parse end-style from Tcl?

Great, sorry I didn't check recent sources... Tested the new 093 script within my context and results look good! Thank you so much for all the effort you put into this project!

Doc, example and cleanup for Tiff

AddTiff {properly clean up opened channel}

If you have a small TIFF-file that can be used for example and test, could you add it under examples? I would like to see it working, and I cannot run tiff.test since I do not have the prerequistes.

Peter, here is my code: package require pdf4tcl set report [lindex $argv 0] <-- this is ASCII text data being passed in from calling program set page_num 1 set header "MMC OPERATIVE REPORT" pdf4tcl::new mypdf -paper letter -margin 0.25i mypdf startPage set width [lindex [mypdf getDrawableArea] 0] mypdf line 0 10 $width 10 mypdf setFont 12 "Helvetica-Bold" mypdf text $header -align center -x [expr {$width/2.0}] -y 0 mypdf line 0 740 $width 740 mypdf setFont 10 Courier mypdf text "Page $page_num" -align...

In this code, it seems that the "Page $page_num" is part of the issue. I did a lot of playing around with this yesterday and if I changed this to "Page '$page_num". then I would see the second page output (this is a 2 page PDF) displayed with "Page '2" displayed at the bottom. There must be some issue with the variable data being passed back to the calling program.

Hi Peter. Windows 10. I'm using a 3rd party app that allows me to call an external .exe. In this case, I'm calling tclsh.exe and then calling my script which uses your package. I'm passing in a variable which houses report text. I draw static elements like lines and header text. The 3rd party app allows me to direct output from stdout to a file, so that is what I'm doing. I'm scratching my head as to why static elements are displayed fine, but by variable report data is not visible, but the number...

I work for a health system and there is a vendor we work with that also produces PDF output, but they base64 encapsulate it before sending. Just didn't know if this is an option in the future.
