pdf-lib - v0.6.0

Published by Hopding almost 6 years ago

Add methods to measure width and height of text strings in both standard and embedded fonts.
Allow use of the full range of UTF-8 and UTF-16 characters supported by embedded fonts.
Allow use of ZapfDingbats and Symbol standard fonts with the proper encodings.
- https://github.com/Hopding/pdf-lib/pull/58
PDFDocument.embedFont is now deprecated. Please use PDFDocument.embedNonstandardFont instead.
When drawing text (with the drawText() or drawLinesOfText() operators, for example), please be sure to use the font.encodeText() method for the font you are using. This is highly recommended for both standard and nonstandard fonts (and is required if you want to use characters outside the ascii range).
The following examples demonstrate usage of the new font.widthOfTextAtSize() and font.heightOfFontAtSize() methods to measure text, as well as usage of the font.encodeText() method to encode characters outside the ascii range.

pdf-lib - v0.2.0

Published by Hopding over 6 years ago

Add ES6 module build to NPM release (in the es folder).
Add UMD build to NPM release (dist/pdf-lib.js).
Add minified UMD build to NPM release (dist/pdf-lib.min.js).
Fix issue with compiled TypeScript declaration files not having the same relative import paths as the compiled JS files.

Change import paths:

pdf-lib/x/y/z is no longer valid.
pdf-lib/lib/x/y/z is the CommonJS module.
pdf-lib/es/x/y/z is the ES6 module.
pdf-lib now directly exports all public classes and functions. For example:

  // v0.1.0
  import { PDFDocumentWriter, PDFDocumentFactory } from 'pdf-lib/core/pdf-document';
  import { drawText } from 'pdf-lib/helpers/pdf-operators/composite';

  // Now
  import {
    PDFDocumentWriter,
    PDFDocumentFactory,
    drawText,
  } from 'pdf-lib';
