Crate pdf

A library for creating pdf files.

Currently, simple vector graphics and text set in the 14 built-in fonts are supported. The main entry point of the crate is the struct Pdf, representing a PDF file being written.

Example

use pdf::{Pdf, BuiltinFont};

let mut document = Pdf::create("foo.pdf").unwrap();
let font = BuiltinFont::Times_Roman;

document.render_page(180.0, 240.0, |canvas| {
    canvas.center_text(90.0, 200.0, font, 24.0, "Hello World!")
});
document.finish();

Some more working usage examples exists in the examples directory.
