multipage pdf
Mar 28th, 2009, 10:57am  
Hi,
Is it possible to create a multi page pdf document? I want to create a pdf document with say, 20 pages. I first create a very long string that I want to spread over enough normal printable pages. I've now created a thousant word string but only 600 are printed on one pdf page. Is there a way to create new pages for the pdf?

Thank you very much for your help and time.
Regards, Danielle.

Code:

import processing.pdf.*;

PGraphicsPDF pdf;

void setup()
{
  size(200,200);
  pdf = (PGraphicsPDF)createGraphics(width, height, PDF, "test.pdf");
  beginRecord(pdf);
}

void draw()
{
  background(0);
  stroke(255);
  line(random(width),random(height),random(width),random(height));
  if(frameCount==5)
  {
    endRecord();
    exit();
  }
  pdf.nextPage();
}
