pdfkit

Using both 0.79 and 0.7.2 the PDF generated looks slightly different than my original HTML. Adding the show_as_html flag presents it as expected however the inline-styles are being handled differently in the PDF then they are in the HTML preview. Specifically the problem I'm having is with letter-spacing declarations which also have a float not being rendered correctly. So for instance on a right float element which has the letter-spacing, the PDF will space the characters too much and from center such that the text goes partially off the screen rather than bumping further to left for the

I have a rails app that uses PDFKit to render pdf versions of webpages. I use Thin as a development server. The problem is that when i'm in development mode. When I start my server with "bundle exec rails s" and I try to render any PDF the whole process gets deadlocked because when you render a PDF some extra resources like images and css are requested to the server and looks like there is a single thread. How can I configure rails development server to run multiple worker threads? Thanks a lot. The simplest solution I have found is unicorn . gem install unicorn Create a unicorn.conf : worker

If somebody is interested in saving the PDF file in the filesystem which is shown by PDFKit middleware gem, then here it is... Override the call method of middleware.rb file. In overriding just replace this line: body = PDFKit.new(translate_paths(body, env), @options).to_pdf with pdf = PDFKit.new(translate_paths(body, env), @options) file = pdf.to_file('Your/file/name/path') Mymodel.my_method() #You can write your method here to use that file body = pdf.to_pdf #Here you can change the response body You can also override the response-body and content-type if you don't want to give pdf response.

Author" PDFDocumentTitleAttribute = "test" pdfdoc.setDocumentAttributes_(attrs) pdfdoc.writeToFile_("mynewfile.pdf") print "pdf made" This appears to work fine (no errors to the consoled), however when

I'm trying to add highlight annotations to documents using PDFKit on iOS. let highlight = PDFAnnotation(bounds: selection.bounds(for: page), forType: PDFAnnotationSubtype.highlight, withProperties: nil) highlight.color = color page.addAnnotation(highlight) page.displaysAnnotations = true When adding them using the code above, they appear as two differently shaped layers. When saving them to the PDF file and reopening it they display correctly. In this screen capture The top and bottom highlights have been added the same way using the snippet provided here. The top one has been saved to the pdf

Rails 2, PDFkit 0.5.0 Im generating a PDF from a View in Rails 2 with PDFkit and everything works fine. The only thing which doesn't work is displaying pictures in the pdf. When I look at the View in the Browser, the picture is there but its missing in the PDF. There is only a placeholder existing in the PDF.
