B4J Tutorial [BANano] Creating PDF Documents with jsPDF using BANanoJsPDFAD

Ola

As you are aware, the BANanoJsPDFAD tool is out. Its developed using jsPDF and it uses the abstract designer for you to create pdf Documents.

You can insert text, triangles, images, ellipses, circles, annotations, links, lines, rectangles, rounded rectangles and more.

Step 1

Drop and jsPDFDoc, specify properties and then add some jsPDF??? elements to it like text, line, rectangles. Each elements has an X Y position and some other properties you need to specify.

The output for the main page as per this example is:

PS: You can also switch on ShowLog, so that the jsPDF scripts are written to the console log eg. .text(20,20,"Mashy"), this could be useful for designing and debugging.

Mashiane, thanks for the fast response. However, I`m getting an error in the log window when I open my code "An item with the same key has already been added."
So it won`t compile...

I'm not really sure I understand what you are talking about. Can you share a screen dump please.

Hi @james_sgp , I see, this seems to be a b4j error, sadly, but I could also be wrong.

Usually when the IDE starts, it needs to find a zip file to update the library listing. This happens from time to time too on my side, even when I run apps. I sometimes close and open the IDE. I sadly cannot reproduce it.

Before you run the app, are there any other logs that show that are errors. Perhaps look at the pre-run error logs.
