<h2>5. PDF syntax</h2>
The get_pdfEntries() function uses XML formatted commands to define the
PDF output. Each part in the PDF document is surrounded by <span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">"&lt;block&gt;"</span>
and <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">"&lt;/block&gt;"</span>.<br>
<br>
Inside the &lt;block&gt; tags there are different ways to format the
output:<br>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">simple line with attribute name
and value:</span> <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;block&gt;&lt;key&gt;</span>attribute
name<span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/key&gt;&lt;value&gt;</span>attribute
value<span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/value&gt;&lt;/block&gt;</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">table:</span> <span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;block&gt;&lt;key&gt;</span>attribute
name<span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/key&gt;&lt;td&gt;</span>first
value<span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;td&gt;&lt;/block&gt;&lt;block&gt;&lt;td&gt;</span>second
value<span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/block&gt;&lt;block&gt;&lt;td&gt;</span><span
style="font-weight: bold;"></span>third value<span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/block&gt;</span></li>
</ul>
<br>
Special commands:<br style="font-weight: bold;">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Alignment in &lt;td&gt;:</span>
You can specify the alignment in &lt;td&gt; tags with <span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">align=(L|R|C)</span>
(e.g. &lt;td align=\"L\"&gt;)</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Line breaks:</span> Line breaks
can be specified by adding a <span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;br /&gt;</span>
tag. The new line will start at the left border of the PDF document.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Examples:</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">1. Simple name+value lines:</span><br
style="font-weight: bold;">
<br>
In most cases you will just want to display a single line per attribute
with its name and value.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <span style="font-weight: bold;">'myAttribute'</span>
=&gt; <span style="font-weight: bold;">'<span
style="font-style: italic;">&lt;block&gt;&lt;key&gt;</span></span>AttrName<span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/key&gt;&lt;value&gt;</span>12345<span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/value&gt;&lt;/block&gt;</span><span
style="font-weight: bold;">'</span><br>
<br>
This will give the following PDF output: <span
style="font-weight: bold;">AttrName:</span> 12345<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br>
2. Multiline values:</span><br>
<br>
Sometimes you have multivalued attributes where it is not applicable to
write all values in one line but where you want to list your values one
below the other or show a table.<br>
This can be done by using the &lt;td&gt; tag. This example only uses
one column but can just use more &lt;td&gt; tags per &lt;block&gt; tag
to display more columns.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <span style="font-weight: bold;">'myAttribute'</span>
=&gt; <span style="font-weight: bold;">'<span
style="font-style: italic;">&lt;block&gt;&lt;key&gt;</span></span>AttrName<span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/key&gt;&lt;td
align=\"L\"&gt;</span>123<span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/block&gt;&lt;block&gt;&lt;td
align=\"L\"&gt;</span>456<span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/block&gt;&lt;block&gt;&lt;td
align=\"L\"&gt;</span>789<span
style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/block&gt;</span><span
style="font-weight: bold;">'</span><br>
<br>
This will give the following PDF output: <br>
<br>
<table
style="text-align: left; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); width: 121px; height: 79px;"
border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: top;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">AttrName:</span><br>
</td>
<td style="vertical-align: top;">123<br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: top;"><br>
</td>
<td
style="vertical-align: top; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">456<br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: top;"><br>
</td>
<td style="vertical-align: top;">789<br>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
