pdf manipulation with RoR?
New to rails and I''m working on a site for ebooks and was wondering if there are any plugins for rails that will allow me to generate pdfs on the fly like safari books, where after you order a book it prepares a pdf with your user name on each page. Thankd for all the help. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

No, there aren''t, but you can use the pdfstamp.pl from Perl''s Text::PDF to do it. That''s what I use for my ebook on building e- commerce sites in Rails. -- Benjamin Curtis http://www.bencurtis.com/ -- blog http://agilewebdevelopment.com/rails-ecommerce -- build e-commerce sites with Rails On Jun 2, 2007, at 7:46 PM, magic6435-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org wrote:> > New to rails and I''m working on a site for ebooks and was wondering if > there are any plugins for rails that will allow me to generate pdfs on > the fly like safari books, where after you order a book it prepares a > pdf with your user name on each page. > > > Thankd for all the help. > >--~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

There are no plugins for rails, but you can use this library in your app : http://ruby-pdf.rubyforge.org/ -- Bilek On Jun 3, 4:46 am, "magic6...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org" <magic6...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> New to rails and I''m working on a site for ebooks and was wondering if > there are any plugins for rails that will allow me to generate pdfs on > the fly like safari books, where after you order a book it prepares a > pdf with your user name on each page. > > Thankd for all the help.--~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
