Library PDF Export Multiple Frames

in Core Library Questions • 2 years ago

I tried to run the code from < Library PDF Export Multiple Frames >

http://processing.org/learning/library/multipleframes.html

What it does is: "Saves one PDF document of many frames drawn to the screen. Starts the file when the mouse is pressed and end the file when the mouse is released."

When I run it, it save the final image (when the mouse is released) as a 1-page pdf containing one image.

So what is meant by multipleframes?

It means that the cumulative result of multiple calls to draw() (each defining a frame) is drawn to the PDF, as one image.
If you want multiple pages, look at the reference of the PDF library.

OK, now I understand.

When I press the mouse, it erases the window, keeps on drawing, and on mouse release saves the drawn window into a 1-page pdf.
