🧩 Day 9 of my #PDFwithPython journey

Today I worked with line spacing — a key formatting option when rendering longer text blocks in PDFs. Increasing line spacing improves readability, especially for paragraphs and multi-line content.

#Python #PDF #LearnPython #100DaysOfCode

$import aspose.pdf as ap, os document = ap.Document() page = document.pages.add() lorem_path = os.path.join("E:\\Samples\\Text", "lorem.txt") text = ( open(lorem_path, "r", encoding="utf-8").read() if os.path.exists(lorem_path) else "Lorem ipsum text not found." ) fragment = ap.text.TextFragment(text) fragment.text_state.font_size = 12 fragment.text_state.line_spacing = 16 # Custom line spacing page.paragraphs.add(fragment) document.save("line_spacing.pdf")$

🧩 Day 8 of my #PDFwithPython journey
Today I explored character spacing in Aspose.PDF for Python — a simple way to control how tight or loose text appears in a PDF.
🔍 What I learned: Useful for typography tweaks. A small change can dramatically affect readability

#Python #LearnPython #100DaysOfCode

import aspose.pdf as ap
from aspose.pdf.text import TextFragment, FontRepository

doc = ap.Document()
page = doc.pages.add()

for spacing in [2.0, 1.0, 0.75]:
fragment = TextFragment("Sample Text with character spacing")
fragment.text_state.font = FontRepository.find_font("Arial")
fragment.text_state.font_size = 14
fragment.text_state.character_spacing = spacing
page.paragraphs.add(fragment)

doc.save("character_spacing.pdf")

🧩 Day 7 of my #PDFwithPython journey
Today I experimented with radial gradient shading on text using aspose.pdf.
This feature lets you fill text with a circular gradient — here from 🔴 red to 🔵 blue — creating a vibrant, eye-catching PDF title.

🧩 Day 6 of my #PDFwithPython journey

Today I experimented with transparent text — a neat way to make text blend naturally with the page background.
🎨 The result: by adjusting the alpha (A) value, you can fine-tune the opacity for watermark effects.
#Python #PDF #LearnPython #100DaysOfCode

import aspose.pdf as ap

document = ap.Document()
page = document.pages.add()

text = ap.text.TextFragment(
"This is the transparent text. "
"This is the transparent text. "
"This is the transparent text."
)
text.text_state.foreground_color = ap.Color.from_argb(0, 0, 255, 0)
page.paragraphs.add(text)

document.save("transparent_text.pdf")

🧩 Day 5 of my #PDFwithPython journey

Today I learned how to add LaTeX formulas directly into a PDF using aspose.pdf.
Math in PDFs just got easier — no image rendering or manual layout!

Aspose.PDF automatically converts LaTeX syntax into beautiful, scalable math symbols 🧮

#LaTeX #100DaysOfCode

$import aspose.pdf as ap document = ap.Document() page = document.pages.add() latex_content = "$ \\sqrt{x^2+y^2} $" latex_fragment = ap.TeXFragment(latex_content) page.paragraphs.add(latex_fragment) document.save("latex_fragment.pdf")$

🧩 Day 4 of my #PDFwithPython journey

Today I explored how to insert HTML-formatted text directly into a PDF.

Headings, bold or italic text, subscripts, and superscripts — all render beautifully!

No need to manually style paragraphs — HTML does the job!
#Python #PDF #100DaysOfCode

$import aspose.pdf as ap document = ap.Document() page = document.pages.add() html_content = "<h1>Header 1</h1>" for i in range(5): html_content += f"Paragraph {i+1}" html_content += "a2+b3" html_fragment = ap.HtmlFragment(html_content) page.paragraphs.add(html_fragment) document.save("html_fragment.pdf")$

🧩 Day 3 of my #PDFwithPython journey
Today I explored formatted paragraphs in Aspose.PDF for Python — including indentation, wrapping.
🧠 What I learned:
- Paragraphs can have precise boundaries and indentation
- TextBuilder + TextParagraph = full layout control

#LearnPython #PDF #100DaysOfCode

import aspose.pdf as ap

doc = ap.Document()
page = doc.pages.add()

text = "Lorem ipsum sample text..."
para = ap.text.TextParagraph()
para.first_line_indent = 20
para.rectangle = ap.Rectangle(80, 800, 400, 200, True)
para.formatting_options.wrap_mode = (
ap.text.TextFormattingOptions.WordWrapMode.BY_WORDS
)

frag = ap.text.TextFragment(text)
frag.text_state.font = (
ap.text.FontRepository.find_font("Times New Roman")
)
frag.text_state.font_size = 12

para.append_line(frag)
ap.text.TextBuilder(page).append_paragraph(para)

doc.save("paragraph_text.pdf")

This is a simple example of how to convert PDF to JPEG. Nothing too interesting, except one thing - this code used the Aspose.PDF.Drawing library (nuget.org/packages/Asp...).
It's a new version of Aspose.PDF based on its graphic subsystem and works fine on non-Windows platforms.
