I'm trying to draw a set of signature fields at the bottom of page with terms and conditions. I'm brand new to Prawn so I'm having a little trouble with this. I looked at the column_box
method and there looks like there is some left_side
and right_side
methods in some of the documentation but those methods don't seem to be working (I get a NoMethodError
) or something.
What I want is two signature fields with text underneath each. One of the left side of the page and one on the right side. How do I do this?
My code sample:
column_box([0, cursor], :columns => 2, :width => bounds.width) do
text "_______________________"
text "Signature 1"
right_side
text "_______________________"
text "Signature 2"
end
And the error I'm getting:
undefined local variable or method `right_side' for #<Prawnto::TemplateHandlers::Renderer:0x00000005b3a420>
You could make your column_box having 2 columns, then adjust height matching the size of underlines and the text below it, so it would break columns between them. It would be something like:
Prawn::Document.generate("hello.pdf") do
column_box([0, cursor],:columns => 2, :width => bounds.width, :height => 75) do
# For default font 2x 25px lines are enough to break an 75px height column
# You should adjust height of the box and font_size to match
# your desired 2-column effect
font_size 25
text("___________")
text("Foo")
text("___________")
text("Bar")
end
end
Don't forget you have to specify :columns => 2
and height
attributes of column_box
for desired 2-column effect.
