How to use both the properties of Qtextdocument

VRonin

@ManiRon The title of your post is "How to use both the properties of Qtextdocument" I assumed you have a QTextdocument to work on. maybe ui->teData->document()?

@ManiRon said in How to use both the properties of Qtextdocument:

@VRonin i tried the same way as yours (QTextCursor cursor(textDocument);) but it says

mainwindow.cpp:107: error: 'textDocument' was not declared in this scope
QTextCursor cursor(textDocument);
^

The error message tells you exactly what is wrong with your code, nothing to add by showing screenshots. You cannot expect to copy @VRonin's suggestion verbatim without any attempt to understand what it is doing and what you need to do to complete it. Why don't you have a look in the docs at QTextCursor's constructors? He wants you to understand what is wrong and deal with it, for your own long-term benefit.

@JonB Yes sir i am getting that i cannot use both at the same time and i tried with a sample code too.

@JonB header has top left corner one image and top right corner one image and a title at the middle of the two images, and after that i want insert my texts. This much things i want to do . Is there any way ? :(

Assuming this has nothing to do with PDF (sometimes you talk about the PDF header or "inserting PDF", I'm never sure), this sounds like you want to insert an image into your document? Have a read of http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/richtext-cursor.html and http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtextcursor.html#insertImage-2 ? I really think you need to do some reading of this sort of stuff to get an idea of what you can do with QTextDocument & QTextCursor.

ManiRon

@JonB Yes sir sure. I have another doubt . Is there any possibility that i can add my image as the header of the pdf document which want to create.

ManiRon

@JonB Its just a title where i want to place my company logo on the left and right top corner and the titke as my project .

@ManiRon
Not via QTextDocument. You'd have to look at manipulating the PDF output, which is a different matter.

Something like https://forum.qt.io/topic/74643/qtextdocument-to-pdf-with-watermarks-and-header-footer-filesize-too-large might give you some ideas. I do not guarantee whether that is good/the right approach, but it might be.

@ManiRon This is my report with an example image inserted. the two images with the Name REPORT are the title of the document and that "sdvzfdvzsfdv" is the text that i wanted to insert.

@ManiRon
If you don't want to do this via the paint() suggested in the link I posted above, you could try with either QTextCursor::insertImage() or you could try writing the whole thing in HTML and seeing if QTextCursor::insertHtml() accepts it or not, I don't know.

ManiRon

@JonB Ok Sir . i will read about it and check with an example code.

ManiRon

@JonB but with this QTextCursor::insertImage() property whether i can place the image anywhere ?

JonB

@ManiRon
You can insert it wherever you can navigate a QTextCursor to. Frankly I don't understand from what you have written where exactly it is you want it, so I don't know whether you can navigate there.

ManiRon

@JonB I want it to be in the header section of a PDF file.
example: <Image> TITLE <Image>

JonB

@ManiRon
Then like I said you can't, unless you want to work on getting at the PDF from the QTextDocument before it gets sent to the printer and manipulate it from there.

ManiRon

@JonB will there be any possibility or any idea because i am out of idea

@ManiRon
As I said, you will have to look, I think, at: instead of making the QTextDocument send the PDF it can produce straight to the printer without change, rather you must "intercept" it and do whatever you need to the PDF header first.
