I MAY be able to derive something out of the present example given here : http://blog.codeinmotion.com/index.php/2006/12/22/pdf-generation-in-ruby-on-rails/ but this deals with filling out forms. Is there a simpler example that just allows you to talk to itext , send it some plain text and get back a pdf and then send that pdf to the user as downloadable / renderable data? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby o...

...id all my web work in, Lasso, had this stuff built in, but it appears not to be so with Ruby or Rails. The latest info I can find on this is a year old now, and involves a lot of DIY Java and RJB -- not particularly interested in having to go that route.

I am still attempting to figure out how to send an Itext generated pdf Document to the browser. I am looking at the following blog posting where someone is using jruby and iText to create a pdf file and then sending it to the browser : http://codersifu.blogspot.com/2007/06/howto-generate-pdf-files-in-ruby-on.html Unlike the above example I am using onl...

...sformation code right. As I understand it, I should be creating a ConstantArray based on the string (in this case I'm taking an instruction, 'disassembling' it to an ostringstream then turning it into a constant array): std::ostringstream instr; (*wp)->print(instr); Constant *itext = ConstantArray::get(instr.str()); This bit seems OK. I am calling a function in my run time system with the signature void mcp_trace_instruction(const char *) by first declaring it inside doInitialization(): virtual bool doInitialization(Module &M) { std::vector<const Type*>...

Hi, For those who might not be aware, rjb is a killer gem for using java classes inside your rails app (or any ruby code). Check it out at: http://rubyforge.org/projects/rjb/ I was able to successfully use it in one of my apps that required some code that is only available in java. And it''s much nicer than having to compile a java app, then shell out using backticks, get back the return

Having read over the ruby pdf generation (simple reporting) options, I think Pdf::Writer will do just fine... ..if the following is possible On page 13 of (the really expansive) ::Writer manual, Replacement Tags are detailed. Before I jump into this tomorrow, I''m hoping for some triage sage advice. Finally, the question : "Would utilizing Replacement Tags be a suitable

...n c = hMap.values(); # # //obtain an Iterator for Collection # Iterator itr = c.iterator(); # # //iterate through HashMap values iterator # while(itr.hasNext()) System.out.println(itr.next()); So, I took a stab at the ruby version: # I have a java hashmap called fields that was created using iText thusly reader = pdfreader.new( "pdf_file.pdf" ) @form = reader.getAcroFields() fields = @form.getFields() # this is a hashmap of all fields on form fields._classname # entere in irc displays: java.util.HashMap # So, following the java code above c = fields.values() itr = c.iterator()...

I have a pdf file that I would like to parse into R: http://www.williams.edu/Registrar/geninfo/faculty.pdf For now, I open the file in Acrobat by hand, then save it "as text" and then use readLines(). That works fine but a) I am concerned that some information may be lost and b) I may be doing this a lot, so I would rather have R grab the information from the pdf file directly. So: is

Has anyone succeeded in producing Rails reports using jasper reports? I have prepared reports directly with Jasper''s iReport tool using my MySQL data. It is a very powerful reporting tool.
