      Starts a new viewport, establishing a new coordinate system. A viewport has a size and can optionally be clipped. Corresponds to SVG's svg element.
      Parameters:
      transform - the transformation matrix establishing the new coordinate system
      size - the size of the viewport
      clipRect - the clipping rectangle (may be null)
      Throws:
      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this element
    • startViewport

      void startViewport(AffineTransform[] transforms, Dimension size, Rectangle clipRect) throws IFException
      Starts a new viewport, establishing a new coordinate system. A viewport has a size and can optionally be clipped. Corresponds to SVG's svg element.
      Parameters:

      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this element
    • endViewport

      void endViewport() throws IFException
      Ends the current viewport and restores the previous coordinate system.

      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this element
    • startGroup

      void startGroup(AffineTransform[] transforms, String layer) throws IFException
      Starts a new group of graphical elements. Corresponds to SVG's g element.
      Parameters:
      transforms - a series of transformation matrices establishing the new coordinate system
      layer - an optional layer label (or null if none)
      Throws:
      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this element
    • startGroup

      void startGroup(AffineTransform transform, String layer) throws IFException

      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this element
    • endGroup

      void endGroup() throws IFException
      Ends the current group and restores the previous coordinate system (and layer).
      Throws:
      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this element
    • setFont

      void setFont(String family, String style, Integer weight, String variant, Integer size, Color color) throws IFException
      Updates the current font.
      Parameters:
      family - the font family (or null if there's no change)
      style - the font style (or null if there's no change)

    • drawText

      void drawText(int x, int y, int letterSpacing, int wordSpacing, int[][] dp, String text) throws IFException
      Draws text. The initial coordinates (x and y) point to the starting point at the normal baseline of the font. The parameters letterSpacing, wordSpacing and the array dx are optional and can be used to influence character positioning (for example, for kerning).
      Parameters:
      x - X-coordinate of the starting point of the text
      y - Y-coordinate of the starting point of the text
      letterSpacing - additional spacing between characters (may be 0)
      wordSpacing - additional spacing between words (may be 0)
      dp - an array of 4-tuples, expressing [X,Y] placment adjustments and [X,Y] advancement adjustments, in that order (may be null); if not null, then adjustments.length must be the same as text.length()
      text - the text
      Throws:
      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this event
    • drawText

      void drawText(int x, int y, int letterSpacing, int wordSpacing, int[][] dp, String text, boolean nextIsSpace) throws IFException
      Throws:
      IFException
    • clipRect

      void clipRect(Rectangle rect) throws IFException
      Restricts the current clipping region with the given rectangle.
      Parameters:
      rect - the rectangle's coordinates and extent
      Throws:
      IFException - if an error occurs while handling this event
    • clipBackground

      void clipBackground(Rectangle rect, BorderProps bpsBefore, BorderProps bpsAfter, BorderProps bpsStart, BorderProps bpsEnd) throws IFException
      Restricts the current clipping region to the inner border.
      Parameters:
      rect - the rectangle's coordinates and extent
      bpsBefore - the border segment on the before-side (top)
      bpsAfter - the border segment on the after-side (bottom)
      bpsStart - the border segment on the start-side (left)
      bpsEnd - the border segment on the end-side (right)

      Parameters:
      bpsBefore - the before border
      bpsAfter - the after border
      bpsStart - the start border
      bpsEnd - the end border
