data2pdf utility - tips & tricks

Andreas_Lundin

Hi all

If anyone uses the data2pdf utility available at the download section, this could be of interest.

I'm planning on making a small tips & tricks guide for the tool. It has a support for 12 different fonts, and various paper formatting capacbilities. In order to activate these features the source file to convert need to have some codes applied to it. So, I plan to upload a small tips and tricks guide, if anyone is interested.

One of the tricks could be to change the paper size from the default(A4) to landscape output. This is done by adding the following line in top of the text document to convert into PDF:

<paper 842 595>

If anyone actually use this utility, and needs a small guide, please drop a note on this thread. If no responses are posted, I'll keep the guide on stand by, until someone shows interest.

Regards
Andreas L.

Oops I forgot to enclose the code snippet <img border="0" title="" alt="" src="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" /> I have some problems, because it has the similar syntax as HTML tags, and it's not possible to use them in this forum.

Try using the 'code' and '/code' tags, but place them between []. Click on "UBB Code is ON" when writing your message, for more info.
