Set the font color in prawn

Im using prawn to generate a PDF output in a rails app. How do i change the color of the outputted text?

Solution

  • Have you tried fill_color? Code below should work:

    require "rubygems"
require "prawn" 

Prawn::Document.generate "hello.pdf" do 
  fill_color "0000ff" 
  text_box "Hello World (in blue)", :at => [200,720], :size => 32 
end
