Add text in PDF line by line with specific formatting and style using Aspose.PDF for .NET

Aspose.PDF Product Family

Hello Group,

My agency uses Aspose. I need to find out if there is a way to use Aspose to format data as it is read line by line from a text file(.txt) and input into a PDF. We use vb.net in a web service and read a .txt file. As each line is read we apply formats to each line such as Font, Line Height, Line Width, Underlining, Margin Indenting, etc… Can the Aspose suite, using what I would assume to be the Aspose.PDF dll, be able to handle this process?

Thank you in advance.

Thanks for contacting support.

Sure, you can add text in PDF document line by line while specifying its formatting. Please check following code snippet in C#.NET which you can use for the purpose and modify it as per your requirement:

Document document = new Document();
document.Pages.Add();
Page page = document.Pages[1];
string[] lines = new[] { "First Line", "Second Line" };
foreach(string line in lines)
{
 TextFragment text = new TextFragment(line);
 text.TextState.Font = FontRepository.FindFont("Arial");
 text.TextState.FontSize = 40;
 text.TextState.FontStyle = FontStyles.Italic;
 page.Paragraphs.Add(text);
}
document.Save(dataDir + "test_out.pdf");
