I'm using Prawn and Prawnto to generate a PDF in a Ruby on Rails app (Rails version 2.2.2) which works great and generates PDFs happily and sends them to the user to download in Firefox. The problem is in IE7. I have a route set up like so: map.invoice_pdf '/invoices.pdf', :controller => 'invoices', :action => 'inde...

I'm using ruby, prawn, and prawnto to dynamically generate pdf's containing text in other languages. I can't seem to get any text in languages with non-english characters to show up. It doesn't throw any errors...just shows a bunch of dashes instead of characters. Prawn brags on its homepage about UTF-8 support so I don't see why this is...
Hi there, I've used Prawnto quite a bit in a few Rails projects. As I'm trying to integrate it into this project, I'm unable to get it working! I've installed the plugin, and the files are there: script/plugin install git://github.com/thorny-sun/prawnto.git I've added this line to environment.rb in the config block: config.gem "praw...
Assumptions: A contact has many notes. A contact has the ID of 1. A note belongs to a user. A user has the field name, "name". Using the prawn gem and prawnto plugin, I've noticed the following: In my view (for the PDF): for note in @contact.notes pdf.text "#{note.user.name}" end This is ideally how I'd like to display the PDF,...

You know, the sane browsers. But on IE, the brow...

I have some simple lists and bold/italic text to format with prawn. How do I get prawn to pay attention to the html tags instead of just displaying them explicitly. If prawn can't do this, what are my other options? ...
Hello all, I have read through all relevant posts on Prawn but found no mentioning (even in Prawn's own documentation) of headers and footers. However, I did see a demo on Prawnto's own website about headers and footers. I copied the entire source of that demo just to see if it works but an error of undefined method "header" is complai...
I'm trying to assign Pantone colors to some text in Prawn. Ideally I'd like to be able to do this pdf.text_color = pdf.pantone(:485U) pdf.text "Whatever" I know this isn't possible. I considered calling pdf.raw and specifying the color manually but the PDF spec (ISO32000:2008) is way too complicated. I need either a simpler way or so...
