ps_set_text_pos — Sets position for text output
Description
ps_set_text_pos
( resource $psdoc
, float $x
, float $y
) : bool
Set the position for the next text output. You may alternatively set the x
and y value separately by calling ps_set_value() and
choosing textx respectively texty as
the value name.
If you want to output text at a certain position it is more convenient to use ps_show_xy() instead of setting the text position and calling ps_show().
Parameters
psdoc- Resource identifier of the postscript file as returned by ps_new().
x- x-coordinate of the new text position.
y- y-coordinate of the new text position.
Return Values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Examples
Example #1 Placing text at a given position
<?php$ps = ps_new();if (!ps_open_file($ps, "text.ps")) { print "Cannot open PostScript file\n"; exit;}ps_set_info($ps, "Creator", "rectangle.php");ps_set_info($ps, "Author", "Uwe Steinmann");ps_set_info($ps, "Title", "Text placement example");ps_begin_page($ps, 596, 842);$psfont = ps_findfont($ps, "Helvetica", "", 0);ps_setfont($ps, $psfont, 8.0);ps_show_xy($ps, "Some text at (100, 100)", 100, 100);ps_set_value($ps, "textx", 100);ps_set_value($ps, "texty", 120);ps_show($ps, "Some text at (100, 120)");ps_end_page($ps);ps_delete($ps);?>
