Is this an active project? #384
Description
I have been using Alive PDF 0.1.5 for many years now with great results. The reason for this inquiry is that I now have been given a new requirement to support localization. One of the first languages is Taiwanese Traditional Chinese. Currently, I am running into issues getting the class PDF() and or UnicodePDF() to work. I have downloaded the latest code base 0.1.7 RC but still no luck. I have not been able to locate any sample code that would help to get the method calls correct. I am using the following example with the output not looking good.
public function Test()
{
try
{
pdf=new UnicodePDF();
pdf.setDisplayMode(Display.FULL_PAGE, Layout.SINGLE_PAGE);
pdf.addPage();
pdf.setFont(new ArialUnicodeMS(CidInfo.CHINESE_TRADITIONAL),20);
pdf.addText("Hello World!", 0, 10);
pdf.addText("你好，世界", 0, 30);// zh_TW Taiwanese Traditional Chinese
}
catch (err:Error)
{
trace("Error found in PDF " + err.toString());
//errorMsg = "Failed to create PDF file"; //todo get from resource
}
}
public function save(method:String):ByteArray
{
var rtnValue:ByteArray=new ByteArray;
rtnValue=pdf.save(method);
return rtnValue;
}
//////PDF output
//////
Hello World!
你好｜
///////
/////// As you can see the Chinese pdf.addTest() call has been chopped
//////
Do you have a better example of working code? Is this still an active project? I am not seeing much activity and 15 or so issues dealing with language support sitting for multiple years in the queue of issues.
