You'll learn, through examples, how to use borb to generate and manipulate PDFs, and extract information from them. The deep-dive chapters will help you gain a thorough understanding of various interesting algorithms, or pieces of the PDF specification. The showcase examples are typically aimed at working out a use-case from start to finish. 1.2 About the author I'm Joris Schellekens, the author of both this book and the borb library. I've been a software engineer/architect for most of my professional career. I started out working in C++ and Java, and only late in the game did I switch to Python. I love mathematical optimization, and graph-theory. I never thought I'd be the author of a library for writing PDF documents, but here we are. Working with PDF has offered me many challenges that were often as difficult as they were satisfying to solve. 1.3 Who should read this book? This book is intended for python developers who'd like to create, or work with (existing) PDF documents. This can be anything from generating reports, invoices, to itemized inventory overviews. This book assumes you have some background in Python programming. This book includes a lot of small code-snippets that handle a particular facet or problem in a PDF-workflow: - Adding Paragraph , List , Table , Image and more to a PDF document - Adding annotations to an existi","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/borb-pdf","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/borb-pdf/borb_examples/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
