Text Alignment Issue

[Lee Diggins]

Hi

I''m posting here as Direct Track is showing an application error and I cannot login.

I am trying to justify some text retrieved from a data base using the code below using IPDFGraphicState propsAlign, here is my code for that page:

// Create page 3
pdfDoc.CreatePage();
IPDFPage page3 = pdfDoc.Pages[2];

// Insert text into page 3
System.IO.StreamReader page3File =
new System.IO.StreamReader(Server.MapPath("rtfs_fr/new_page_3.rtf"));
string page3Read = page3File.ReadToEnd();
page3.Graphics.DrawRTFText(new PointF(40, 20), page3Read, (float)550, (float)800);

// Set graphicstate
IPDFGraphicState props1 = pdfDoc.CreateGraphicState();
props1.BreakBehavior = AutoBreakBehavior.MultiLineTextBreak;

IPDFGraphicState propsAlign = pdfDoc.CreateGraphicState();
propsAlign.BorderColors.All = Color.Black;
propsAlign.BorderSize.All = 1;
propsAlign.DrawBorderInside = false;
propsAlign.Padding.All = 10;
propsAlign.TextAlignment = TextAlignment.Justify;
propsAlign.BreakBehavior = AutoBreakBehavior.MultiLineTextBreak;

// Assign array value to variable
string comments0 = arrComments[0];
string statements0 = arrStatements[0];

// Measure size of the statement and insert into page 3
SizeF sizeStatements0 = pdfDoc.Graphics.MeasureString(statements0, pdfFont10, (float)(450), props1);
RectangleF page3Rec1 = new RectangleF(new PointF(40, 110), sizeStatements0);
page3.Graphics.DrawMultiText(page3Rec1, statements0, pdfFont10, props1);

// Measure size of the comment and insert into page 3
SizeF sizeComments0 = pdfDoc.Graphics.MeasureString(comments0, pdfFont10, (float)(450), propsAlign);
RectangleF page3Rec2 = new RectangleF(new PointF(40, page3Rec1.Bottom + 20), sizeComments0);
page3.Graphics.DrawMultiText(page3Rec2, comments0, pdfFont9, propsAlign);


I do get the border, padding etc applied to the rectangle. but unfortunately the Justify setting is not being applied.

Any ideas guys?

Lee

Hi Lee,

My apologies.Text alignment seem to be working fine.

I tried creating a sample such a way that I retrieve the long text from the database and applied "justify" alignment. It works fine.I was able to see the space getting adjusted as in the case of justify.

Here is a sample for your reference.

TextFlow.zip

Could you please look into the sample and let me know if it works fine.

Sorry for the confusion.

Regards,
Dhivya.

Hi Dhivya

I get the sample to work as expected.

My code will not apply justification, however, it will apply, left, right and center but not justify so it has to be a bug yes?

Hi Lee,

Here is a sample exactly with your code. I was not able to reproduce the issue still.
Sample:

TextAlignment.zip

Can you look into the sample if I have missed something in your code?

Here is a screen shot of the PDF file generated with your code.
Screen shot:http://www.syncfusion.com/Support/user/uploads/TextAlignment_2600d164.gif

You can notice that the text inside the rectangle is justified[as the alignment property "propsAlign" is set to "justify].

Can you modify this sample so that I can reproduce the issue? This will help me investigating further on this issue.

Thanks,
Dhivya
