PDF/Reuse version 0.37 ====================== This module gives you a possibility to reuse PDF-files. You can use pages, images, fonts and Acrobat JavaScript from old PDF-files (if they were not encrypted), and rearrange the components, and add new graphics, texts etc. There is also support for graphics. In the tutorial there is a description of how to transform simple PDF-pages to graphic Perl objects with the help of programs based on this module. The module is fairly fast, so it should be possible to used it for mass production. Usage e.g. for a long list: use PDF::Reuse; use strict; # Getting customer data in some way ... my @custData = ( { firstName => 'Anders', lastName => 'Wallberg' }, { firstName => 'Nils', lastName => 'Versen' }, { firstName => 'Niclas', lastName => 'Lindberg' }, # and 10000 more records { firstName => 'Sten', lastName => 'Wernlund' } ); prFile('myFile.pdf'); for my $customer (@custData) { prForm('letter.pdf'); prText(50, 750, "Dear $customer->{'firstName'}"); # ... prPage(); } prEnd(); INSTALLATION perl Makefile.PL make make test make install In a Windows environment you will probably meed nmake or dmake instead of make. (If you haven't got nmake, try to download it from Microsoft ) DEPENDENCIES This module requires these other modules: Carp Compress::Zlib Digest::MD5 Exporter AutoLoader If you want to use true type fonts and non-Latin1 Unicode characters you also need theese optional modules Font::TTF Text::PDF::TTFont0 (Part of Text::PDF distribution) COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2003 - 2004 Lars Lundberg, Solidez HB.
