DynaPDFMBS.ConvertStyledText(StyledText as StyledText, LeadingFactor as double = -1) as String

Public Function Convert(s as StyledText) as string
  dim d as new DynaPDFMBS
  
  // create dummy in memory pdf
  call d.CreateNewPDF(nil)
  
  // create dummy page
  call d.Append
  
  // convert
  Return d.ConvertStyledText(s)
  
  // destructor will cleanup
End Function

You can use the result with WriteFText, WriteFTextEx or DynaPDFTableMBS.SetCellText functions.
Needs an open page as it loads fonts for you. May cause error events if fonts are not found.

LeadingFactor: Added in v21.0. If you pass a value > 0, the plugin will add \LD[] commands to styled text to set leading relative to font size. This way you define the spacing beteween lines. e.g. 1.2

Some examples using this method:

• /DynaPDF/Create PDF with text styles
• /DynaPDF/Web Edition/Web RTF to PDF Web

DynaPDFMBS.CopyChoiceValues(Source as UInt32, Dest as UInt32, Share as Boolean) as Boolean

The source and destination field can be combo and list boxes. It is allowed to copy the list items of a list box to a combo box or vice versa.
If Share is true, the function adds just a reference to the list item so that both fields share the same list items. This is still the case if more list items will be added to such a field. If Share is false, the list items will be copied to the destination field. Both fields contain independent list items in this case.
Already existing list items of the destination field will be deleted.

See also CopyChoiceValues function in DynaPDF manual.

This is the older ANSI version of the function.

See also Create3DView function in DynaPDF manual.

DynaPDFMBS.CreateAltFontList as Integer

It is possible to create an arbitrary number of alternate font lists. Multiple lists can be created because different fonts and languages require different fallback fonts. For example, one could create one list for proportional fonts and another one for fixed pitch fonts, or different lists for different languages.
Each list can be activated or deactivated with ActivateAltFontList() arbitrary often. Changing the active alternate font list is very fast and causes no overhead.
Once a font list was created it can be filled with data with SetAltFonts(). A font list that is no longer needed can be deleted with DeleteAltFontList().
Please note that alternate font lists are used only, if complex text layout was enabled. This can be done by setting the flag kgfComplexText with SetGStateFlags().

If the function succeeds the return value is the handle of the font list, a value greater or equal zero. If the function fails the return value is a negative error code.

Some examples using this method:

• /DynaPDF/ComplexText/Alternate Fonts

See also CreateAltFontList function in DynaPDF manual.
