in reply to: First css selector is applied when selectors have same name November 15, 2013 at 19:17#29431
We identified a problem with a precedence of selectors with identical weight (aka CSS Specificity). The issue is going to be fixed with forthcoming maintenance release.

in reply to: PDF page headers/footers definition options November 19, 2013 at 21:07#27292Hi
I am evaluating pd4ml. Do headers/footers work with the evaulation version? Here is my code:
File pdf = new File("/tmp/test.pdf");<br /> <br /> PD4ML pd4ml = new PD4ML();<br /> <br /> try (java.io.FileOutputStream fos = new java.io.FileOutputStream(pdf))<br /> {<br /> {<br /> PD4PageMark header = new PD4PageMark();<br /> header.setHtmlTemplate("<font color="red"><i>header $[page] of $[total]</i></font><br>");<br /> header.setAreaHeight(50);<br /> pd4ml.setPageHeader(header);<br /> }<br /> {<br /> PD4PageMark footer = new PD4PageMark();<br /> footer.setHtmlTemplate("<font color="red"><i>footer $[page] of $[total]</i></font><br>");<br /> footer.setAreaHeight(50);<br /> pd4ml.setPageHeader(footer);<br /> }<br /> pd4ml.enableDebugInfo();<br /> pd4ml.render(new StringReader("<html><body>BODY<pd4ml:page.break/>BODY2<pd4ml:page.break/>BODY3</body></html>"), fos);<br /> }
This is the version: version: PD4ML 385 (eval)
The PDF doc has 3 pages, the evaluation version thing is there in the footer but nothing else appears in the header or the footer area. Can you please advise what I am doing wrong?
Thank you,
Jozsefin reply to: PDF page headers/footers definition options November 20, 2013 at 10:59#27293HTML header/footer templates are supported by PD4ML Pro (and derived volume licenses). As I see you evaluate PD4ML Std, which provides support for text-only header/footer.
See http://pd4ml.com/cookbook/pdf_header_footer_generation.htm
in reply to: span tag not displaying border November 20, 2013 at 21:19#28925Maybe you can use the tag, to draw border around the text.
Hello <input id=”” class=”” style=”cursor: auto; border: 3px solid blue; font-size:14px; width: 50px;” value=”$1000″/>
But, you need set manually the width for the tag.
Best solution could be, if will be supported, or any other way you can do that with the same result.
in reply to: span tag not displaying border November 21, 2013 at 10:56#28926display: inline-block; applied to DIV should also do the trick.
[language=xml:2bodw95c]
Hello
$1000[/language:2bodw95c]
in reply to: HTML/CSS rendering issues November 25, 2013 at 11:42#26891Hi there,
We have just bought PD4ML pro for use on our site. We are using this to show chemical data. It is often necessary to show a subscript immediately under a superscipt. To do this in HTML we use the following tag:
n25D+1.5690
This looks fine in HTML with the ‘D’ appearing below the ’25’ but when we create the PDF, it does not apply
style=”position: relative; left: -1.2em;”
It is absolutely necessary that we are able to show subscripts under superscripts in the PDFs can you tell us how to acheive this?Thanks
Megan Eisenbraunin reply to: PD4ML Tips & Tricks November 25, 2013 at 14:02#26892Hello,
We would like to do byte-to-byte comparison of expected and generated PDF files in our automated testing suite.
As explained in the official documentation of PD4ML, we have overridden the PD4ML_DOCUMENT_DATE attribute : http://pd4ml.com/api/org/zefer/pd4ml/PD4Constants.html#PD4ML_DOCUMENT_DATE
However, we have found other attributes that absolutely need to be overridden to make our tests pass.
1) At the bottom of the PDF file, the “/ID [GENERATED_NUMBER]” metadata is generated randomly.
Please advise how we can override this value with a fixed user provided value.
2) The order of the embedded object declaration (/XObject metadata) is random.
Sometimes we have :
/XObject <<<br /> /img1 4 0 R<br /> /img2 5 0 R<br /> /img0 3 0 R<br /> /img3 2 0 R<br /> >><br />
Other times :
<br /> /XObject <<<br /> /img3 2 0 R<br /> /img1 4 0 R<br /> /img2 5 0 R<br /> /img0 3 0 R<br /> >>
And so on.
We use Velocity with CSS attributes to embed images so the order of inclusion should not be random.
Please advise how we can fix the order of the /img elements.
Thanks
in reply to: position: relative; for subscripts under superscripts November 25, 2013 at 14:20#29439PD4ML has some restrictions with relative positioning (it can be applied not to all tags, and as I see ’em’ units are not supportd for re-positioning)
Needed appearance can be achieved with the code:
[language=xml:33w7thy1]n25D+1.5690[/language:33w7thy1]
in reply to: Automated testing – Random values November 25, 2013 at 15:09#29440Some time ago we specially addressed automatic testing issues.
A JVM parameter like -Dpd4ml.document.id=0123456789abcdef (16 chars) should help to resolve /ID [GENERATED_NUMBER] issue.
Also the image references are sorted by original image paths. Can it be that the paths differ from test to test?
in reply to: Automated testing – Random values November 25, 2013 at 15:45#29441Thanks for your answer.
Setting the system property solved the random ID issue.
Concerning image paths, they are defined in a static CSS file.
This CSS file is located in a fixed directory. The images also.
I would have looked at the source code in debug to understand the issue but I do not have access to the source code.
Could you think of anything else that would randomize this list?
Thanks for your help.
in reply to: Automated testing – Random values November 25, 2013 at 15:57#29442Obviously it would make sense to sort the image references by image IDs. I’ve just corrected the code in the development build, and it seems XObject dictionary appears sorted now.
in reply to: Automated testing – Random values November 25, 2013 at 17:25#29443Would you know in which version and/or at which time this fix would be released?
in reply to: Automated testing – Random values November 25, 2013 at 17:46#29444We could send you an interim development build. Contact support pd4ml com. Currently the image reference sorting is the only difference from v385fx3

Word? Do you mean this free barcode creator can create barcode image on document file, like Word? Then how about the PDF file?
