| robin_watts_mac | Morning tor8 | 11:20.06 |
| tor8 | hey! | 11:20.18 |
| spanish | hi | 14:53.08 |
| | does somebody know if I can save current pen y position at any given time to a file? | 14:53.38 |
| | I'd like to implement pdfmark destinations for use in tex (using the /view operator) much like when following anchors within a same page when in html | 14:54.35 |
| robin_watts_mac | spanish: You can read the current y position from postscript, I think. And therefore you can do anything you want with it. | 14:58.10 |
| spanish | how robin_watts_mac? I saw about currentpoint in comp.text.tex, but don't know how to save it to a file or something | 15:00.20 |
| | if so, a second tex pass would allow me to get it | 15:00.34 |
| robin_watts_mac | spanish: You'd need to arrange for a bit of postscript to be run whenever you hit a destination. | 15:01.28 |
| | Then you'd need to write some postscript code to call currentpoint and to do something with it. | 15:02.03 |
| spanish | do you know of something already done that I can use as starting point? | 15:02.12 |
| robin_watts_mac | I'm not a postscript guru. | 15:02.36 |
| | and I don't know of any such code. | 15:02.45 |
| spanish | me neither, thanks anyways | 15:02.54 |
| robin_watts_mac | comp.lang.postscript would be a reasonable place to ask. | 15:02.57 |
| spanish | sure, I would if I can't cope with it, thanks | 15:03.12 |
| | robin_watts_mac: http://pastebin.com/Y3V1ywri | 17:15.47 |
| | that seems to work, now I have to see if I can integrate it | 17:16.13 |
| | nice, once merged gs says currentpoint hasn't been set when my procedure was called | 18:20.07 |
| | I think it's for graphics only anyway | 18:20.35 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2012/03/26)>>> | |
