PL/PDF Line Spacing

I'm evaluating the PL/PDF tool. It seems good except I can't figure out the line spacing.
All the examples show wrapped lines of text being double spaced. I want single spaced lines.
I'm using the plpdf.PrintMultiLineCell procedure.
There must be some setting that I'm missing. Any ideas?

PL/PDF is not an Oracle product. It's a product from a different company. They don't have their own forum, just paid support, as far as I know.

  • SAPSCRIPT to Web(pdf) has different line spacing than in SAP?

    When we issue to output the order in SAP it looks fine. When we open it in the web, using PDF, the lines are spaced differently.
    We have never had an issue before, but now we added a lot of text to a final page of the sapscript.
    Any suggestion how to adjust the PDF line spacing for output via our SAP Function Modules that create OTF to PDF?
      Thanks,

    Hi,
    The SAPscript must generate an OTF output and then you convert the OTF into PDF format.
    There are 2 possibilities :
    1.Without generating any spool :
    2.When calling OPEN_FORM function module, export parameter OPTIONS-TDGETOTF = 'X', and when calling CLOSE_FORM function module, use returned parameter OTFDATA
    call CONVERT_OTF function module to convert the OTF to PDF. Returned parameters are BIN_FILE (the PDF binary) and BIN_FILESIZE (the length of the PDF binary). See below how to save a PDF binary to a file.
    If an OTF spool has been generated, you may convert it using CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF function module. Returned parameters are PDF table (the PDF binary) and PDF_BYTECOUNT (the length of the PDF binary).
    Thanks

  • PDF Letterhead Text LINE SPACING PROBLEM

    I recently upgraded from Pro 8 to X Pro on my Windows XP desktop. With Pro * I used the typewriter fucntion to place text onto my pdf letterhead. I have my letterhead in pdf format on my hardrive. I saved this texted letterhead without a problem, i.e., with the font, paragraphs, and line spacing eaxtly as it was when I creared it. With X Pro, after having placed text in my letterhead using the Typewriter function, my attempt to save the texted in letter head results in a pdf document which does not respect the line spacing I used w=hen creating it. Why am I have this line spacing problem?

    Thank you Michael,
    I am simply trying to continue using X Pro the way I used Pro 8. In Pro 8 I
    used the Typewriter function to input text to the letter head stored in my
    hard drive. Perhaps this is a functionality I lost as a result of the
    upgrade to X Pro -- I hope not??

  • Permanently save line spacing in a multi-line text field

    Me: Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, Windows Vista
    (I think the people who will be using the form have Reader 7 on Windows)
    I work in a doctors' clinic, and we use phone message sheets to document conversations between the patients/us/nurses/doctors, and I scanned the form and made it into a fillable PDF for our secretaries to fill out more quickly. The "message" area has pre-printed lines on it, and the multi-line text field I placed there needs to match up to the lines. I used the Rich Text Formatting options to set it to "Exactly 24 Points," but I can't get it to KEEP the formatting permanently. The only way I could get it to save the formatting in that field was to put a space in it and then save it, and then give that to the 2 phone secretaries. It works perfectly the first time, but instead of just closing/re-opening the file to start a new message, one of the secretaries highlights everything in the "message" field and deletes it... which deletes the line spacing formatting. I've told her
    b numerous
    times to leave that starting space in the field, but she "forgets" so all of her messages look messed up. So is there a way to force that line spacing
    b PERMANENTLY
    ???? Here's a shrunken screenshot of the field -- I wish I could just erase the lines altogether so the spacing wouldn't matter, but the secretaries type/print the message out, then the nurses/docs write on the page with pen so the lines have to stay. http://img187.imageshack.us/my.php?image=notepreviewph8.jpg
    Thanks!

    You can set the font size of the text. Then play with the underlines in the original document to match the needs of the font that is used. Print to a new PDF and then use replace pages to put the new page into the form without changing the form fields. I was able to do this with a word processing document by adding underlining in the document with 12 pt and setting the font to 12 pt in the text field. You can play with the font, the border of the field, and the underlining in the original document to get the desired result. Is this optimal, probably not. However it does the job.

  • Line Spacing in text field.

    Hi,
    I have added many text fields to my pdf document. Some of them need following:
    1.
    Adjust the line spacing between two lines.
    2.
    Make the text "justified".
    I can not find any way to accomplish these things. Can anyone tell me how to do these things?
    Thanks,
    Vijay

    Geo,
    Are you talking about check box "Allow Rich Text Formatting" in the Text Field Properties dialog box? I have it checked.
    But still it does not give me ability to adjust line spacing or "justify"ing the text.
    Thanks,
    Vijay

  • Line spacing in acrobat pro X

    forms, made one in Pro X, to be used by someone in Reader
    where can I find line spacing capabilities - (form is then enabled to use in Reader) looked all over for hours to find answer and nothing*
    set font at Helv 9 point and the line spacing looks as if it is 4 point - very squashed and nor readable at all
    how can I fix this????

    hi there
    In did try that, thanks for pointing out the Ctrl E, but prob still showing as same
    tried diff line spacing allowed , diff pont size fonts, diff hard returns, no returns, was always using Helv and finally then tried to set as Times, but when saved and attached to an email, the Times was a sans serif font, and not Helv. hmm, I was hopeful because your solution sounded so logical, but to no avail.'
    At one point, I thought maybe Forms is meant to only works with 1 line blocks, but I did see another pdf, where although it didn't accept hard hard returns - it ignores them, but they have the line spacing. The only diff is that in their form, somehow one can access the "sign" part of menu on side where it has 3 options  - Tools / Sign / Comment and when one goes to "sign" in their form - it is accessible and a drop down menu comes up with the option of "add text" is available.
    In my forms, "sign" isn't available in the 3 options, actually I have 4 (Tools / Sign / Comment / Extended) options that appear at the upper right show up?  The menu comes with none of the options available but there is a small yellow box that comes up:       The security settings on this document prevent adding text and  / or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader . To sign this document, you need to print it out ? I can't understand this  thank you

  • Preserve "exactly" line spacing in epub output.

    In my Pages document, there are many inline equations (from Mathtype). I like having the line spacing set to "exactly" so the line spacing remains constant, even between lines with equations that 'overlap' the lines around it.
    Is there a way to preserve this option when I export my Pages document to Epub? Right now, the line spacing is single-spaced in the Epub output.

Is there a way to preserve this option when I export my Pages document to Epub? Right now, the line spacing is single-spaced in the Epub output.
    No, if you use the ePub document model. Yes, if you mix document models.
    ePub is a document markup model where you are expected to encode character information in ISO10646/Unicode and encode the logical organisation (structure) the define the parts of your document. However, ePub has no support for font embedding and without font embedding it is meaningless to talk of fixed line length, fixed line spacing, and fixed glyph spacing and sizing.
    If you set up your equations in whatever originating application you prefer and save into a fixed geometry format such as Adobe PDF, then the fixed geometry file can be handled like a graphic in ePub, HTML and other document markup models. Be aware that Adobe PDF encodes the glyphs but not the characters whereas ePub and HTML encode the characters but not the glyphs which may impact search support, depending on what you are trying to do. Also, check you mathematical fonts in the Apple Character Palette to be certain that the glyphs map to meaningful characters in ISO10646/Unicode so that the glyph identifiers can be used to synthesise character semantics. A whole lot of mathematical fonts are constructed to draw mathematical glyphs from say English characters so that there is no relationship at all between information processing and image presentation. In this respect, OpenType is simply a rebranding of TrueType whereby system software displays an OpenType icon if a TrueType font file has the DSIG table - there is no guarantee whatsoever that the relationship of characters to glyphs is of this world (lots and lots of laughs to Heidelberg and its management of the Linotype Library here). See below from the ePub Specification.

    3.4: Embedded Fonts
    To provide authors with control over the appearance of the text, OPS supports the CSS2 font-face at-rule (@font-face). See section 15.3.1 of the CSS2 Recommendation. The following font descriptors must be supported:
    font-family
    font-style
    font-variant
    font-weight
    font-size
    src
    For portability, authors must not use any other descriptors. Font files must carry all information needed for rendering Unicode characters. Fonts must not provide mappings for Unicode characters that would change the semantics of the text (e.g. mapping the letter "A" to a biohazard symbol). Content creators must not assume that any particular font format is supported. Fonts could be included in multiple formats by using a list of files for the src descriptor; the first supported format should be used. At least one file in OpenType format should always be included in the list. It is advisable for a Reading System to support the OpenType font format, but this is not a conformance requirement; a reading system may support no embedded font formats at all. Content creators should use comma-separated lists for font-family properties to specify fallback font choices.
    Content creators must always honor usage restrictions that are encoded in OpenType fonts (and many other font formats). Fonts that are marked "no embedding" must not be included in OPS Publications.
    Any font files included in an OPS Publication must be included in the OPF manifest with appropriate media type (application/vnd.ms-opentype for OpenType fonts).

  • Line Spacing

    I have always had a very hard time with line spacing in InDesign. I always end up with inconsistent line spacing/leading throughout my paragraph. The text blocks act as if I have set hard and soft returns when I haven't. It always seem to be the last word in a paragraph. It's always done this and I've heard other people complain about the same thing. The copy has been cut and pasted into InDesign from a pdf.
    I welcome any suggestions.

    In that little pearl of wisdom from Bob, you are overseeing something that might help a Quark reformee:  .. by default ..
    Check out this screen snap from my Preferences. Note that I have it left disabled, as I am totally confident in my ID formatting / styling skills
    There is a reason Adobe leaves it unchecked by default; enable at your own risk.
    (The reason, obviously, is that any larger-than-usual font size anywhere in your paragraph (including its return at the end) will influence the entire paragraph. I can't help thinking that would be a feature that drives Quark users nuts all around the world.)

  • Fix for extra line spacing in code on publish

    Hi Everyone
    Here is a fix for the issue where on publishing using Contribute (CS3 / CS4) extra line spacing is added into the HTML code on publish.  Everytime you publish using Contribute extra line spacing is added between the lines of coding destroying the formatting over time.
    (See attached PDF document for the complete how to step-by-step fix.)
    The issue lies in the line break type defined in Adobe Contribute settings.  Where the web server type, the website is hosted on Unix / Windows, is different from the line break type defined in Contribute's settings under...
    Users & Roles > Editing > Line break Type
    For example:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    <title>Website Tile</title>
    <meta name="keywords" content="Keywords here" />
    <meta name="description" content="Description here" />
    On publish becomes:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    <title>Website Tile</title>
    <meta name="keywords" content="Keywords here" />
    <meta name="description" content="Description here" />
    (dots are used just to space the text in the forum thread post, they represent blank lines between the lines of code)

    It sounds like you are carrying over a desktop setting that I dont think is editable in iPad pages. It is the before and after spacing around paragraphs. I have been using iPad versions for months now and cant think of the desktop wording in the inspector.
    Open back up in Dekstop pages and see if you can find that setting and reset it to a lower value, or delete the value and resend to iPad.

  • "Line Spacing" vs. leading

    How does "Line Spacing" in static or dynamic text fields
    (explicitliy set in the "Formatting Options" window) compare w/
    "leading" when creating a text field w/ AS?
    Is a "Line Spacing" setting of 10 the same as my_fmt.leading
    = 10;?
    In a Flash 7 file I'm trying to get the spacing between lines
    in an AS-created text field to be closer than default, but it seems
    that leading can be a positive value. But if a similar static field
    looks good w/ Line Spacing set at 0, why is there no equivalent w/
    leading?

    To clarify... If the query row is omitted from the
    indexed/array notation, then isValid() and <cfparam />
    produce different results.
    In the attached code example below, the query row was omitted
    intentionally to illustrate.
    Two possible solutions are:
    1) Make isValid() throw an error (so that they both throw an
    error)
    2) Make <cfparam /> not throw an error (so that they
    both do not throw an error)
    I feel the behavior should be consistent. Does anyone feel
    otherwise? If the behavior should be consistent, then which
    solution, or other solution, is preferred?
    Let's discuss!
    Thanks,

  • I have "upgraded" from Pages 2.0.2 to Pages 5.5.3 and can no longer customize my line spacing. Does anyone know if there are more than 4 options for line spacing?

    Is it possible to customize line spacing in Pages 5.5.3? My previous Pages 2.0.2 allowed me to choose spacing in 0.1 increments, but as far as I can tell Pages 5.5.3 only offers four options. Very limiting for creative documents.

    Hi Margaret,
    Does this work for you?
    And 0.6
    Or 1.6
    Please call back if this does not help.

  • How can I change or reduce the line spacing to single in a "multiple lines of text" column in a list?

    We keep many logs in a simple list format. One of the columns requires a description using the "multiple lines of text" default column. Sometimes the person making the entry needs to complete about 20-30 lines of text. Users are requesting we reduce
    the amount of space advanced between lines to save space and be more concise. Is there a way to reduce the line spacing for the column entries to single spacing without code?
    Maree N Percival

    We determined that the site column settings were incorrect for allowing single spacing, we changed the site column setting from "Enhanced rich text (Rich text with pictures, tables, and hyperlinks)" to  "Rich text (Bold, italics, text alignment, hyperlinks)"
    and it is now keeping the text in single spaced lines.
    <label for="onetidRichText">Specify the type of text to allow:</label> 
    <input id="onetidRichTextPlain" name="RichText" title="Plain text" type="radio" value="PLAIN" />
    <label for="onetidRichTextPlain">Plain text   </label>
    <input id="onetidRichTextCompatible" name="RichText" title="Rich text (Bold, italics, text alignment, hyperlinks)" type="radio" value="COMPATIBLE" />
    <label for="onetidRichTextCompatible">Rich text (Bold, italics, text alignment, hyperlinks)</label>

  • In Notes, I do not have a format bar. Under views there is no option to toggle this feature on or off. How then, can I set line spacing in documents? or is there some trick to getting the format bar that they say exists?

    I want to be able to adjust line spacing in the Notes program. The help menu says that there is format bar and that I can choose this spacing. I do not have a format bar. They said that you can toggle this on and off under the View menu. I have not option in my dropdown that gives me an option to show or hide the format bar. Is there a reason why my version does not seem to have this feature?

    Sorry for the wishy washy response but potential YES and possibly NO. Your user data should be intact but the OS may not be able to boot. You have a backup?

  • Pages 5: Spacing between bullets (not line spacing)

    How can I control the spacing between bullets?
    1. I clearly see how to control the spacing around a bullet relevant to its text. That's not what I'm referring to.
    2. I clearly see how to set line spacing. That's not what I'm referring to.
    What I'd like to do is keep a line spacing of 1.0 on the text, but add padding between list items (between bulleted content). The method in Pages '09 was to add buffer space "after the paragraph" (or before). However, in Pages 5.0 this option does not exist. Some of my bullets have enough content that wraps, which is why line spacing is not an acceptable solution.
    How can I control spacing between bulleted list items, such that each chunk of content is better separated?
    Thank you!

    Silly me. I have located it, by expanding the Spacing menu. The control I'm looking for is right there.
    I've included a screencap, in case anyone else misses the obvious like I have. Thanks for looking!

  • Can you change the line spacing in the legend?

    Is there a way to change the line spacing in the legend? I have a pie chart with text and I can't change the line spacing for its legend like you would in a regular text. Is there a way to change it?

    For space between each line, use the leading value in the Character pallet. For space between paragraphs, use the Space Before or Space After values in the Paragraph pallet.
