Hi All again,

Is it able to set the font style, such as italic, underline before drawing the text?

Thanks!

This is all mentioned in the reference manual. Search for 'Italic' and 'Underline'.

1. QP.AddStandardFont() - has some bold and italic fonts to choose from.

2. QP.AddTreTypeFont("Times New Roman [BoldItalic]", 1);

3. QP.SetTextUnderline(1);

Underline The underline mode to use:

0 = None

1 = Single

2 = Double

3 = Strikeout

4 = Over

Hi, i have the same concern of wanting to change all TEXTS FONT inside a certain PDF File into a different FONT STYLE but it should not change it's Font Size. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Vid

If the pdf-document is made then it's made, fixed and end.
It#s really hard stuff to change anything having to do with the content.
With QP you shouldn't try it.

Cheers, Ingo

As Ingo says it is not easy to change fonts in a PDF document. PDF files by design, are not easy to change and were never designed to be changed.
