$feature = ?): int
Outputs a text in a given box. The lower left corner of the box is at
(left, bottom). Line breaks
will be inserted where needed. Multiple spaces are treated as one.
Tabulators are treated as spaces.
The text will be hyphenated if the parameter
hyphenation is set to true
and the parameter hyphendict contains a valid
filename for a hyphenation
file. The line spacing is taken from the value leading.
Paragraphs can be
separated by an empty line just like in TeX. If the value
parindent is
set to value > 0.0 then the first n lines will be indented. The number n
of lines is set by the parameter numindentlines.
In order to prevent
indenting of the first m paragraphs set the value
parindentskip to a
positive number.
Parameter-Liste
-
psdoc -
Resource identifier of the postscript file as returned by ps_new().

-
height -

hmode -
The parameter

Used parameters
The output of ps_show_boxed() can be configured with several parameters and values which must be set with either ps_set_parameter() or ps_set_value(). Beside the parameters and values which affect text output, the following parameters and values are evaluated.
- leading (value)
-
Distance between baselines of two consecutive lines.
- linebreak (parameter)
-
Set to
trueif you want a carriage return to start a new line instead of treating it as a space. Defaults tofalse. - parbreak (parameter)
-
Set to
trueif you want a carriage return on a single line to start a new paragraph instead of treating it as a space. Defaults totrue. - hyphenation (parameter)
-
Set to
truein order to turn hyphenation on. This requires a dictionary to be set with the parameterhyphendict. Defaults tofalse. - hyphendict (parameter)
-
Filename of the dictionary used for hyphenation pattern (see below).
- hyphenminchar (value)
-
The number of chars which must at least be left over before or after the hyphen. This implies that only words of at least two times this value will be hyphenated. The default value is three. Setting a value of zero will result in the default value.
- parindent (value)
-
Set the amount of space in pixel for indenting the first m lines of a paragraph. m can be set with the value
numindentlines. - parskip (value)
-
Set the amount of extra space in pixel between paragraphs. Defaults to
0which will result in a normal line distance. - numindentlines (value)
-
Number of lines from the start of the paragraph which will be indented. Defaults to
1. - parindentskip (value)
-
Number of paragraphs in the box whose first lines will not be indented. This defaults to
0. This is useful for paragraphs right after a section heading or text being continued in a second box. In both case one would set this to1. - linenumbermode (parameter)
-
Set how lines are to be numbered. Possible values are
boxfor numbering lines in the whole box orparagraphto number lines within each paragraph. - linenumberspace (value)
-
The space for the column left of the numbered line containing the line number. The line number will be right justified into this column. Defaults to
20. - linenumbersep (value)
-
The space between the column with line numbers and the line itself. Defaults to
5.
Hyphenation
Text is hyphenated if the parameter hyphenation is set
to true and a valid hyphenation dictionary is set. pslib does not ship its own
hyphenation dictionary but uses one from openoffice, scribus or koffice.
You can find their dictionaries for different languages in one of the
following directories if the software is installed:
- /usr/share/apps/koffice/hyphdicts/
- /usr/lib/scribus/dicts/
- /usr/lib/openoffice/share/dict/ooo/
Rückgabewerte
Number of characters that could not be written.
