Yes I'm using the PDFlib. I understand the rotating of the page. So this is what I am doing: I am building a page $pdf. If I rotate the page then everything on the page rotates also. I need to put titles in a 45 degree angle. These titles can change and there can be between 3-6 depending on the users input. Is there a way to build this text on a separate page then merge it into the $pdf page. Or any ideas of how you might do it. If it was just one title or on a page by itself then I understand how to do it. The problem is that it isn't.

It works just fine, but you have to understand how PostScript works. Calling PDF_rotate rotates the entire page beneath you by that amount. Call it first, THEN draw your text. It may be sensible to wrap the whole thing in a PDF_save and PDF_restore so you don't have to keep track and manually unrotate. So: 1. pdf_save 2. pdf_rotate 3. pdf_show 4. pdf_restore miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
