text exceeds page size

Question

I would like to know if I can make some kind of text that can exceed the size of the page. because I have a text that can change from user to user and it can exceed the size of the page.

I put the text like this below:

page2.graphics.drawString(
    'Foi realizada a vistoria em todos os Hidrantes '
    'e abrigos pertencentes ao sistema de pressurização'
    ' por Hidrantes do(a) ${relatorio.NomeCliente.toString().toUpperCase()}'
    '. Para tanto, a NT 2-02:2019, em seus itens 5.3 (Dos abrigos de '
    'Hidrantes), 5.5 (Dos tipos de sistemas) e 5.6 '
    '(Da instalação dos Hidrantes e Mangotinhos), '
    'descreve as exigências para a instalação dos '
    'Hidrantes, abrigos e seus dispositivos, conforme '
    'listado abaixo:',
    PdfStandardFont(PdfFontFamily.courier, 12),
    brush: PdfBrushes.black,
    bounds: Rect.fromLTWH(25, 55, page2.getClientSize().width - 80, 90),
    format: PdfStringFormat(
      lineAlignment: PdfVerticalAlignment.middle,
      alignment: PdfTextAlignment.justify,
    ),
  );

How can I make it change pages if it exceeds the page size?

The PdfLayoutFormat class helps to
allow the text to flow across pages. The PdfLayoutResult class provides the
rendered bounds of the previously added text, which can be used to place
successive elements without overlapping.The following code snippet explains
how to add elements relatively and also allow the text to flow across multiple
pages.

//Create a new PDF document
  PdfDocument document = PdfDocument();
   
  //Adds a page to the document
  PdfPage page = document.pages.add();
   
  String text =
      'Adventure
  Works Cycles, the fictitious company on which the AdventureWorks sample
  databases are based, is a large, multinational manufacturing company. The company
  manufactures and sells metal and composite bicycles to North American,
  European and Asian commercial markets. While its base operation is located in
  Washington with 290 employees, several regional sales teams are located
  throughout their market base.';
   
  //Create a text element with the
  text and font
  PdfTextElement textElement =
  PdfTextElement(
      text: text,
  font: PdfStandardFont(PdfFontFamily.timesRoman, 20));
   
  //Create layout format
  PdfLayoutFormat layoutFormat =
  PdfLayoutFormat(
      layoutType:
  PdfLayoutType.paginate,
      breakType:
  PdfLayoutBreakType.fitPage);
   
  //Draw the first paragraph
  PdfLayoutResult result =
  textElement.draw(
      page: page,
      bounds:
  Rect.fromLTWH(0, 0, page.getClientSize().width / 2,
          page.getClientSize().height),
      format:
  layoutFormat)!;
   
  //Draw the second paragraph from the
  first paragraph end position
  textElement.draw(
      page: page,
      bounds:
  Rect.fromLTWH(0, result.bounds.bottom + 300,
          page.getClientSize().width
  / 2, page.getClientSize().height),
      format:
  layoutFormat);
   
  //Saves the document
  File('Output.pdf').writeAsBytes(await
  document.save());
   
  //Disposes the document
  document.dispose();

Irfana Jaffer Sadhik · Answer

Yes you can create one section for PDF document and add page on that section and draw the same. please use the below code snippet to achieve the same on your end:

//Create a new PDF document

PdfDocument document = PdfDocument();

PdfSection section = document.sections!.add();

//Adds a page to the document

PdfPage page = section.pages.add();

String text =

'Adventure Works Cycles, the fictitious company on which the AdventureWorks sample databases are based, is a large, multinational manufacturing company. The company manufactures and sells metal and composite bicycles to North American, European and Asian commercial markets. While its base operation is located in Washington with 290 employees, several regional sales teams are located throughout their market base.';

//Create a text element with the text and font

PdfTextElement textElement = PdfTextElement(

text: text, font: PdfStandardFont(PdfFontFamily.timesRoman, 20));

//Create layout format

PdfLayoutFormat layoutFormat = PdfLayoutFormat(

layoutType: PdfLayoutType.paginate,

breakType: PdfLayoutBreakType.fitPage);

//Draw the first paragraph

PdfLayoutResult result = textElement.draw(

page: page,

bounds: Rect.fromLTWH(

0, 0, page.getClientSize().width / 2, page.getClientSize().height),

format: layoutFormat)!;

//Draw the second paragraph from the first paragraph end position

textElement.draw(

page: page,

bounds: Rect.fromLTWH(0, result.bounds.bottom + 300,

page.getClientSize().width / 2, page.getClientSize().height),

format: layoutFormat);
