Generate PDF

[lexfridman]

There's a way to "paint" to an SVG file using QSvgGenerator class (link). Is there a way to generate PDF files, or do I have to convert from SVG to PDF using an external program.

You can use QPrinter::PdfFormat:

QSvgRenderer renderer("filename.svg");
 
QPrinter printer;
printer.setOutputFormat(QPrinter::PdfFormat);
printer.setOutputFileName("filename.pdf");
 
QPainter painter(&printer);
renderer.render(&painter);
painter.end();

QSvgRenderer renderer("filename.svg");

QPrinter printer;
printer.setOutputFormat(QPrinter::PdfFormat);
printer.setOutputFileName("filename.pdf");

QPainter painter(&printer);
renderer.render(&painter);
painter.end();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

You can use QPrinter to generate pdf :

QPrinter printer;
	 printer.setOutputFileName("My Report.pdf");
         printer.setOutputFormat(QPrinter::PdfFormat);
         printer.setPaperSize(QPrinter::A4);

QPrinter printer;
	 printer.setOutputFileName("My Report.pdf");
         printer.setOutputFormat(QPrinter::PdfFormat);
         printer.setPaperSize(QPrinter::A4);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

P.S : Have a look at the attached file ; it's a small application that generates & print PDF .
Hope to be Helpful .

I tried to use your application but it does not send a pdf file to printer. It only treats text file and not binary file..Am I right? Or am i missing something?

Thank you
