The Presentation Text object is the data object used in document processing
environments for representing text which has been prepared for presentation.
Text, as used here, means an ordered string of characters, such as graphic
symbols, numbers, and letters, that are suitable for the specific purpose of
representing coherent information. Text which has been prepared for
presentation has been reduced to a primitive form through explicit
specification of the characters and their placement in the presentation
space. Control sequences which designate specific control functions may be
embedded within the text. These functions extend the primitive form by
applying specific characteristics to the text when it is presented. The
collection of the graphic characters and control codes is called Presentation
Text, and the object that contains the Presentation Text is called the
PresentationText object.
The content for this object can be created using PtocaBuilder.

PresentationTextObject
Construct a new PresentationTextObject for the specified name argument, the name should be an 8 character identifier.- Parameters:
name- the name of this presentation object
-
-
Method Details
-
createTextData
Create the presentation text data for the byte array of data.- Parameters:
textDataInfo- The afp text data- Throws:
UnsupportedEncodingException- thrown if character encoding is not supported
-
createControlSequences
Creates a chain of control sequences using a producer.- Parameters:
producer- the producer- Throws:
UnsupportedEncodingException- thrown if character encoding is not supported
-
createLineData
Drawing of lines using the starting and ending coordinates, thickness and orientation arguments.- Parameters:
lineDataInfo- the line data information.
-
writeStart
Helper method to write the start of the Object.- Overrides:
writeStartin classAbstractStructuredObject- Parameters:
os- The stream to write to- Throws:
IOException- throws an I/O exception if one occurred
-
writeContent
Helper method to write the contents of the Object.- Overrides:
writeContentin classAbstractStructuredObject- Parameters:
os- The stream to write to- Throws:
IOException- throws an I/O exception if one occurred
-
writeEnd
Helper method to write the end of the Object.- Overrides:
writeEndin classAbstractStructuredObject- Parameters:
os- The stream to write to- Throws:
IOException- an I/O exception if one occurred
-
endControlSequence
public void endControlSequence()A control sequence is a sequence of bytes that specifies a control function. A control sequence consists of a control sequence introducer and zero or more parameters. The control sequence can extend multiple presentation text data objects, but must eventually be terminated. This method terminates the control sequence. -
