-
-
- Welcome to PythonPoint
-
-
- ...a library for creating presentation slides.
-
-
-
- PythonPoint
-
- lets you create attractive and consistent presentation slides
- on any platform. It is a demo app built on top of the PDFgen PDF library
- and the PLATYPUS Page Layout library. Essentially, it converts slides
- in an XML format to PDF.
-
-
- It can be used right now to create slide shows, but will
- undoubtedly change and evolve. Read on for a tutorial...
-
-
-
-
- Smile and look them in the eye!
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Part 1 – Feature Overview
-
-
-
-
-
-
- XML Notation
-
-
- You create slides in a text editor with a basic
- XML syntax looking like this:
-
-
-
- Welcome to PythonPoint
-
-
- ...a library for creating presentation slides.
-
- ]]>
-
- Pythonpoint then converts these into slides. Just enter
- "pythonpoint.py myfile.xml" to create a PDF document
- (usually called "myfile.pdf", but you specify that in the XML).
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Page Layout Model
-
-
- The Page Layout model comes from PLATYPUS (Page Layout and Typography Using Scripts),
- a key component of the toolkit. This covers concepts such as:
-
-
- Reusable 'Drawable Objects'
-
-
- Frames into which objects flow (like this one, around which we have drawn a border)
-
-
- Style Sheets for text, table cells, line styles etc.
-
-
- Wrapping, page breaking an document management logic
-
-
- Everything is open and extensible. I hope a library of
- reusable objects such as charts and diagrams will grow up.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Reuse and Consistency – Sections
-
-
- You can create a 'section' spanning some or all tags in the presentation
- and place graphics on this. The blue border and title come from the
- section. Here's how we did the border:
-
-
-
-
-
-
- ...all slides go here...
-
-
-]]>
-
- Thus you can re-brand an entire presentation for
- a new audience in seconds.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Style Sheets
-
-
- Paragraph styles are defined externally. You may specify a filename
- from which to load a stylesheet with the stylesheet tag.
-
-
- Thus you can have different sizes and formats by switching
- stylesheets, or colour and black-and-white options.
-
-
- When they are added, tables will be driven by line and cell
- styles in a similar way.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Special Effects
-
-
- Acrobat Reader supports tags to define page transition effects.
- If you are reading this on screen, you should have seen a selection
- of these:
-
-
- Split
-
-
- Blinds
-
-
- Box
-
-
- Wipe
-
-
- Dissolve
-
-
- Glitter
-
-
- Each has a range of options to fine-tune.
-
-
- When they are added, tables will be driven by line and cell
- styles in a similar way.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Outlines and Hyperlinks
-
-
- By default, we generate an outline view in the left pane to
- help you navigate. Hyperlinks within documents are also
- possible.
-
-
- As far as we know, this is the first PDF library to expose
- these features.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Basic Shapes
-
-
- Here are some of the basic shapes available for decorating pages...
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- This is a\nmulti-line string\nplaced directly on the page.\n\nIt can be left-aligned,\ncentred,\nor right-aligned.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Tables
-
-
- The Table tag lets you paste in bulk data and format it attractively:
-
-
-
- Division,Jan,Feb,Mar,Q1 Total
- North,100,115,120,335
- South,215,145,180,540
- East,75,90,135,300
- West,100,120,115,335
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Features Coming Soon
-
-
- This is the first version that runs. A lot can now be added fairly easily:
-
-
- Preprocessor to let you enter paragraphs and
- bullets as one block of text, with less tag typing!
-
-
- PIDDLE drawings
-
-
- PINGO drawings – 'Object Graphics' tags with grouping and coordinate transformations
-
-
- Speaker notes and a mode to print them
-
-
- Tools to archive slides in a database and build presentations to order
-
-
- ...what else can YOU think of?
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Part 2 – Reference
-
-
-
- This section covers all command line options
- and tags currently in use.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Command Line Options
-
-
- Usage (NT, or executable Unix script):
-
-
-
- pythonpoint.py [/notes] myslides.xml
-
-
-
- or (Win9x or non-executable script)
-
-
-
- python pythonpoint.py [/notes] myslides.xml
-
-
-
- Notes:
-
-
- The resulting PDF file has the same
- name as the input file.
-
-
- The Speaker Notes mode prints a shrunken canvas with
- room for notes around the edge. To create notes, make
- an extra frame off the page. See the source of
- Pythonpoint.xml slide 001 for an example.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Tag "presentation"
-
-
- This is the outermost tag in an XML file and is always required.
-
-
- Attributes:
-
-
- filename (required)
-

-
-
- Support for page sizes, opening modes
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Tag "stylesheet"
-
-
- This defines an external style sheet full of paragraph styles.
- For now, these are Python modules conforming to a common interface,
- and examples are given. If not declared, a default style sheet is
- used. You are strongly advised to define your own style sheet,
- as the built-in one will change a few more times.

-
-
-
-
-
- Tag "section"
-
-
- A Section spans across a number of slides and can apply an
- overall background to them. Place graphics directly within
- the section tag, either before or after slides. This lets
- you re-brand a presentation very quickly. Documents
- may contain multiple sections; nesting of sections is
- not (yet) permitted.
-

-
-
- name (required, but not used yet)

-
-
-
- Tag "slide"

-
-
-
-
-
- Tag "frame"
-
-
- Defines a frame on the page which can hold content. You may have
- as many frames as you like, to allow multi-column text or flow
- around pictures.
-
-
- Attributes:
-
-
- x, y, width, height (all required): in points
-
-
- leftmargin, rightmargin, topmargin, bottommargin
- (optional, default to zero) – define the 'inner rectangle' within
- which content flows

- Slide
-
-

- Tag family – "Flowable Objects"
-
-
- Flowable Objects currently include Paragraphs, Preformatted text
- (used for code printing, where the line breaks and spaces matter)
- and inline Images. More will be added in future.
- They negotiate with their containing frame about height and
- width; paragraphs do what you would expect, while images are centred.

-
- Can Contain:
-
-
- The three instances so far contain nothing.

-
- Tag "para" – Paragraphs
-
-
- Paragraphs are used for wrapping text. They are very simple
- – they have a style attribute,
- and the stylesheet defines most attributes externally.
- Currently we use a hack to handle 'bullets', which may be in
- a different font (such as 'ZapfDingbats, specified in style)
- and offset to the left. These are used
- for bullets, numbering and definition lists
- This will vanish as soon as one can
- switch fonts in mid-paragraph (due mid April).
-
-
- Attributes:
-
-
- style (defaults to 'Normal') –
- reference to stylesheet
