I have a requirement to generate views (list and show views, including data and uploaded images) into a format that can be saved and/or emailed. I''m looking for opinions on the easiest way to achieve this. I''ve researched the use of both PDF::Writer and Prawn, and it seems that to re-generate my views in pdf format will require a lot of work. Is there an easier way using .rtf

hi, everyone, i have googled around for some pdf generators. Found 1) PDF::Writer which is a little dated 2) Rupdf (http://scoop.simplyexcited.co.uk//2007/12/15/rupdf-simple- ruby-pdf-rails-plugin/ and http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/rupdf) - it''s a little dated. Last revision was on 15th of Dec, 2007. Any recommendations for pdf generators? thank you -- You received this

Hi We are about to publish a book, which contains figures made with R plots. An important detail that we did not take into account is that the book will not be printed in 4 colors (cmyk mode), but only 2 (black +"spotcolor"). The spotcolor we use is part of the big Pantone family. The problem is that both pdf() and postscript() offer either rgb or cmyk, but no spotcolors such as

Hi there I''m using the latest release (r300) and ''script/backgroundrb start'' works perfectly when executed on the server, but when put inside a Rake task, it doesn''t launch the worker processes. The Rake task is as follows: task :start_backgroundrb do run "cd #{current_path} && ./script/backgroundrb start" end When I run this task, the

After I have uploaded my app where do I specify that my app should now use production environment settings and not development? Can that be done dynamically so that I don''t have to reset a value once I upload website? Thanks for your help!

As described on wkhtmltopdf Google group (http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/issues/detail?id=162), I have a problem generating a PDF while using popen and wkhtmltopdf. wkhtmltopdf takes HTML code as input and ouputs a PDF file. Here is what I''m doing: command = ''"C:\Program Files\wkhtmltopdf\wkhtmltopdf.exe" - - -q'' IO.popen(command,

Greetings all - happy new year, I''m having problems getting Pdf::Writer image insertion. pdf.image "/path/to/images/logo.jpg" is firing "JPEG marker not found!"

Markdown speaks to a project I've engaged for nearly a decade. Ever since I cobbled up an Apple Newton keyboard to connect to my Pilot 5000, I wanted to type plain text with formatting for later printing. Class notes and such. Once I wrote a complex WordPerfect script using custom markup. For a while I wrote raw TeX, relying on a macro file to simplify things only a little. Upon

Sorry if this comes through twice. I already sent this once, before joining the mailing list. I''m attempting to use Backgroundrb to handle asynchronous pdf creation, but in doing so, I''ve run into a very strange problem. Below is a method that''s called from the controller which creates a new worker, then grabs the worker and calls the ''build_pdf''

dear R experts---I am struggling with the requirements to prepare my files for my printers. I am printing in 2/2 format, which means cyan and black for me, which they take from my color-separated pdf files. R comes into play, because it produces all the figures that are embedded in my book (pdflatex). now, TeX has no problems producing CMYK files. However, R produces RGB files (for

My goal is to create a graph with one column and three rows into a single graphic. The mfrow, mfcol, and layout functions all have the same effect: three graphs are produced in a single pdf file, having one graph per page. This is not what I want (I didn't want multiple pages). Just before I sent this post, I was able to generate the desired output with split.screen. Is this the expected

Please do study the FAQ and posting guide: R 2.7.0 is not the current sources, and this was changed a month ago in R-devel. You were asked to check for such changes before submitting a report. Also, there is no unique way to do undercover removal in conversion to CMYK, and so it is wrong to call any method 'wrong' -- in fact the one used in earlier versions of R was a documented

Hi I posted this to the Ruby on Rails Talk group but I thought I''d post it here too as it''s probably a more appropriate group. Hope this is ok. I''m running a 2-instance Mongrel cluster behind Apache 2.2.4 with Rails 1.2.3. If no requests are received by the application for several hours (this usually happens overnight) then Mongrel stops responding and no requests are

The conversion of RGB to CMYK takes place in PostScriptSetCol() starting at line 2900 of R-2.7.0/src/library/grDevices/src/devPS.c if(strcmp(mm, "cmyk") == 0) { double c = 1.0-r, m=1.0-g, y=1.0-b, k=c; k = fmin2(k, m); k = fmin2(k, y); if(k == 1.0) c = m = y = 0.0; else {c /= (1.-k); m /= (1.-k); y /= (1.-k);} r, g, and b have already been normalized to the

Hi there I have recently upgraded to v1.0.1 and I''ve noticed an issue which I don''t believe was present in the 0.2 release. In my worker class I am logging errors as follows: logger.error "the error message" However, this now causes an exception to be thrown in the new version: undefined method `error'' for

Dear list, My favorite output format is usually pdf. I can include the graphics in pdflatex documents and benefit from the scalable nature of vector graphic formats. However, I recently had to generate high-res 2D levelplot graphics as in the example below, N <- 100 # N <- 1000 # slow to diplay xy <- expand.grid(x=seq(0, 10, length=N), y=seq(0, 10, length=N)) xy <- within(xy,

Hello all, I discovered that the pdf device uses fonts to represent "points" symbols (as in plot(...,type="p",...) ). Namely it uses ZapfDingbats with symbol U+25cf. This can lead to problems when the font is not available, or available in another version (such as points being replaced by other symbols, or worst: slightly displaced). Furthermore, it also causes
