Perl module PDF::API2 mei 07-11-2004

Hi all,

I'm trying to generate a PDF index file for CDs with thumb nail images
and image titles.

I searched CPAN and find out PDF::API2 is the right module to use.
However, there isn't much documentation or examples to help me to
understand how it works.

I read through old topics posted to this group but haven't got any
clue how to start with images.

Has anybody done something similar with PDF::API2? Could anyone help
me to get started?

Any comments will be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Mei

Hi Mei,

I've been trying to learn PDF::API2 as well. I just bought a book(Perl
Graphics Programming). There is a short chapter on PDF::API2 with
simple examples. You could actually get those examples online. I will
try to find the link for you.

Please let me know if you've got any solutions on creating those PDF
files.

Lisa

Howdy,

There is a mailing list on Yahoo groups which is moderated by the
Author. Probably the best source. The main web page is on sourceforge
somewhere I think. Though the documentation there is still failry
anemic.

I haven't done graphics with it yet. I expect to try today, and see
how it goes.

-Thanks
