<artifactId>clj-pdf</artifactId>
<version>2.2.19</version>
</dependency>PDF documents are generated calling the pdf function, defined in the clj-pdf.core namespace, with
input and output parameters.
(pdf in out)
in can be either a vector containing the document or an input stream. If in is an input stream then the forms will be read sequentially from it.
out can be either a string, in which case it's treated as a file name, or an output stream.
NOTE: using the :pages option will cause the complete document to reside in memory for post processing.
The documents contain a map with metadata followed by one or more elements. Each element must be a sequence starting with a keyword specifying the element name or a string which will be treated as a paragraph.
Here's a basic example of a document:
(ns example
(:use clj-pdf.core))
(pdf
[{}
[:list {:roman true}
[:chunk {:style :bold} "a bold item"]
"another item"
"yet another item"]
[:phrase "some text"]
[:phrase "some more text"]
[:paragraph "yet more text"]]
"doc.pdf")and the resulting PDF output
Multiple documents can be combined into a single PDF using the clj-pdf.core/collate function.
The function accepts an output stream followed by two or more documents. The documents can be one
of InputStream, file name, URL, or a byte array.
(def doc1 (java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream.))
(def doc2 (java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream.))
(def doc3 (java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream.))
(pdf [{} "first document"] doc1)
(pdf [{} "second document"] doc2)
(pdf [{} "third document"] doc2)
(collate (java.io.FileOutputStream. (clojure.java.io/file "merged.pdf"))
(.toByteArray doc1)
(.toByteArray doc1)
(.toByteArray doc1))Sequences containing elements will be expanded into the document:
(pdf
[{}
(for [i (range 3)]
[:paragraph (str "item: " i)])]
"doc.pdf")is equivalent to
(pdf
[{}
[:paragraph "item: 0"]
[:paragraph "item: 1"]
[:paragraph "item: 2"]]
"doc.pdf")Since clj-pdf uses regular Clojure vectors you can easily add your own helper functions as well.
For example, a pdf-table is expected to have the following format:
[:pdf-table
[10 20 15]
["foo" [:chunk {:style :bold} "bar"] [:phrase "baz"]]
[[:pdf-cell "foo"] [:pdf-cell "foo"] [:pdf-cell "foo"]]
[[:pdf-cell "foo"] [:pdf-cell "foo"] [:pdf-cell "foo"]]]We can add a helper generate the expected format from the given data:
(defn pdf-table [column-widths & rows]
(into
[:pdf-table column-widths]
(map (partial map (fn [element] [:pdf-cell element])) rows)))
(pdf-table
[10 20 15]
["foo" [:chunk {:style :bold} "bar"] [:phrase "baz"]]
["foo" "foo" "foo"]
["foo" "foo" "foo"])The library provides some rudimentary templating options, the template macro can be used to generate a function which accepts a sequence of maps,
and applies the template to each item. This is primarily meant to complement working with clojure.java.jdbc,
which returns sequences of maps representing the table rows.
The $ is used to indicate the anchors in the template. These will be swapped with the values from the map with the corresponding keys. For example, given a vector of maps, such as:
(def employees
[{:country "Germany",
:place "Nuremberg",
:occupation "Engineer",
:name "Neil Chetty"}
{:country "Germany",
:place "Ulm",
:occupation "Engineer",
:name "Vera Ellison"}])and a template
(def employee-template
(template
[:paragraph
[:heading $name]
[:chunk {:style :bold} "occupation: "] $occupation "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "place: "] $place "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "country: "] $country
[:spacer]]))the following output will be produced when the template is applied to the data:
(employee-template employees)
=>
'([:paragraph [:heading "Neil Chetty"]
[:chunk {:style :bold} "occupation: "] "Engineer" "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "place: "] "Nuremberg" "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "country: "] "Germany" [:spacer]]
[:paragraph [:heading "Vera Ellison"]
[:chunk {:style :bold} "occupation: "] "Engineer" "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "place: "] "Ulm" "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "country: "] "Germany" [:spacer]])It is also possible to apply post processing to the anchors in the template:
(def employee-template-paragraph
(template
[:paragraph
[:heading (if (and $name (.startsWith $name "Alfred"))
(.toUpperCase $name) $name)]
[:chunk {:style :bold} "occupation: "] $occupation "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "place: "] $place "\n"
[:chunk {:style :bold} "country: "] $country
[:spacer]]))To use a CSS-like stylesheet, you can create a stylesheet map of class names. Each class name will have an associated attribute map. A specific stylesheet must be included in the document metadata map in order to use it.
Use the CSS-like shortcut for applying classes to elements (e.g. [:paragraph.foo.bar]):
(def stylesheet
{:foo {:color [255 0 0]
:family :helvetica}
:bar {:color [0 0 255]
:family :helvetica}
:baz {:align :right}})
(pdf
[{:stylesheet stylesheet}
[:paragraph.foo "item: 0"]
[:paragraph.bar "item: 1"]
[:paragraph.bar.baz "item: 2"]]

;;the watermark will be automatically applied to each page in the document
;;optionally the watermark can be rotated, scaled, and translated
:watermark
{:image "watermark.jpg"

:header "Page header text appears on each page"
:letterhead ["A simple Letter head"] ;Sequence of any elements. If set, the first page shows letterhead instead of header
;;setting :footer to false will pevent page numbers from being displayed
:footer {:text "Page footer text appears on each page (includes page number)"
:align :left ;optional footer alignment of :left|:right|:center defaults to :right
:footer-separator "text which will be displayed between current page number and total pages, defaults to /"
:start-page 2 ;optional parameter to indicate on what page the footer starts, has no effect when :pages is set to false
:page-numbers false ;should page numbers be printed in the footer, defaults to true
}
;; specifies if total pages should be printed in the footer of each page
:pages true
;; references can be used to cache compiled items for faster compilation,
;; see the :reference tag for details
:references {:batman [:image "batman.jpg"]
:superman [:image "superman.png"]}
;; Register TTF fonts in some probable directories, set this to true if
;; you're going to use :ttf-name to set custom system fonts
:register-system-fonts? true
}The :header and :footer keys can also point to a :table element. The :table key
must point to a :pdf-table type element:
{:header {:x 20
:y 50
:table
[:pdf-table
{:border false}
[20 15 60]
["This is a table header" "second column" "third column"]]}
:footer {:table
[:pdf-table
{:border false}
[20 15 60]
["This is a table footer" "second column" "third column"]]}The :x and :y keys can be used on the header and footer when using the :table key to specify the x/y offset on the page explicitly.

:size [1296 1296]The size defaults to A4 page size if none is provided.
Orientation defaults to portrait, unless :landscape is specified.
A font is defined by a map consisting of the following parameters, all parameters are optional
- :family has following options: :courier, :helvetica, :times-roman, :symbol, :zapfdingbats defaults to :helvetica
- :ttf-name is the name of a TTF font installed on the system. Overrides :family parameter. It could be an absolute or relative path to a font file; it will also seek for a font in classpath resources.
- :encoding should be set to :unicode to enable unicode support if custom :ttf-name font is used
- :size is a number default is 10
- :style has following options: :bold, :italic, :bold-italic, :normal, :strikethru, :underline defaults to :normal
- :styles a vector of multiple style keys
- :color is a vector of [r g b] defaults to black
example font:
{:style :bold
:size 18
:family :helvetica
:color [0 234 123]}
{:styles [:bold :underline]
:family :helvetica}note: Font styles are additive, for example setting style :italic on the phrase, and then size 20 on a chunk inside the phrase, will result with the chunk having italic font of size 20. Inner elements can override style set by their parents.
For non-ASCII text output you will probably have to use external font and define :encoding as :unicode.
The following example illustrates how to specify a custom font file such as Cyrillic font.
(pdf
[{:font {:encoding :unicode
:ttf-name "fonts/Arialuni.ttf"}}
[:phrase "тест 123"]]
"doc.pdf")Custom fonts can also be specified for any elements that support font metadata, such as phrases and paragraphs:
[:paragraph
{:encoding "UniJIS-UCS2-H"
:ttf-name "HeiseiKakuGo-W5"}
"こんにちは世界"]You could set :ttf-name as absolute or relative path to the font file. It will also load fonts from classpath resources by default.
Each document section is represented by a vector starting with a keyword identifying the section followed by an optional map of metadata and the contents of the section.
tag :anchor
optional metadata:
- :id name of the anchor
- :target an external link or a name of the anchor this anchor points to, if referencing another anchor then prefix target with #
- :style font
- :styles a vector of font styles
- :leading number
content:
idiosynchorsies:
- when both font style and leading number are specified the content must be a string
- when leading number is specified content can be a chunk or a string
- when only font style is specified content must be a string
- if no font style or leading is specified then content can be a chunk, a phrase, or a string
[:anchor {:target "http://google.com"} "google"]
[:anchor {:style {:size 15} :leading 20 :id "targetAnchor"} "some anchor"]
[:anchor {:target "#targetAnchor"} "this anchor points to some anchor"]
[:anchor [:phrase {:style :bold} "some anchor phrase"]]

font metadata (refer to Font section for details)
- :family
- :ttf-name
- :size
- :style
- :styles
- :color
- :background [r b g]
Note that when using :ttf-name, you should set :register-system-fonts? true in the document metadata in order to load the available system fonts, or manually provide paths to the font files.
[:chunk {:style :bold} "small chunk of text"]
[:chunk {:styles [:bold :italic]} "small chunk of text"]
[:chunk {:background [0 255 0]} "green chunk"]
[:chunk {:color [0 0 0] :background [255 0 0]} "more fun with color"]
[:chunk {:super true} "5"]
[:chunk {:sub true} "2"]tag :clear-double-page
Ends current page and inserts a blank page if necessary to ensure that subsequent content starts on the next odd-numbered page. In other words, if you print the resulting PDF on double-sided paper, the content that comes after a :clear-double-page will always be on a different sheet of paper from the content that came before it.
;; Example documents
[[:paragraph "this is on page 1"] [:clear-double-page] [:paragraph "this is on page 3"]]
[[:paragraph "this is on page 1"]
[:clear-double-page] [:clear-double-page]
[:paragraph "this is on page 3"]]
[[:paragraph "this is on page 1"] [:pagebreak]
[:paragraph "this is on page 2"] [:clear-double-page]
[:paragraph "this is on page 3"]]
[[:paragraph "this is on page 1"] [:pagebreak]
[:paragraph "this is on page 2"] [:pagebreak]
[:paragraph "this is on page 3"] [:clear-double-page]
[:paragraph "this is on page 5"]]
;; :clear-double-page on an empty page 1 does nothing
[[:clear-double-page] [:paragraph "This is on page 1"]]tag :graphics
The command takes a function with a single argument, the Graphics2D object, onto which you can draw things. Note that this is actually the PdfGraphics2D object which will render the drawing instructions as vectors rather than to a raster bitmap. There is no need to dispose of the graphics context as this is done on exiting the function. The co-ordinates are absolute from the top left hand side of the current page. There are no restrictions as to the number of times this command can be invoked per page; subsequent graphics drawings will be overlaid on prior renderings.
optional metadata:
- :under boolean when true, the rendered graphics are drawn under the page (useful for watermarking), else defaults to above the page
- :translate
[dx dy]shifts the graphic rendering by (dx,dy) - :scale
[sx sy]orsscales the graphic rendering by (sx,sy), or (s,s) - :rotate
radiansrotates the graphic rendering by the given angle (in radians)

- :keep-together? boolean if true, attempts to keep the entire table on the same page. if there is not enough room on the current page, the table will be moved to the next page. will not work if the table is too large for any single page. default is false
- :no-split-rows? boolean if true, if a row won't fit in the space remaining on the current page, it will be moved to the next page instead of the cells being split between two pages. default is false
