[Bangalore-pm] Bangalore-pm Digest, Vol 23, Issue 1

[Joe Cheri Ross]

Hi Ashwin,

what I feel is that you will have anyway problem with text rotation, as
Postscript::Simple doesn't allow text rotation. One suggestion is to create
an eps doc  from the initial document(polygon with text),and try to load it
with the required rotation to the ps file.

code sample from CPAN search

 $p = new PostScript::Simple(papersize => "A4",
                                colour => 1,
                                units => "in");

    # create a new page
    $p->newpage;

    *# create an eps object from the polygon with text*
    $e = new PostScript::Simple::EPS(file => "test.eps");
    $e->rotate(90);
    $e->scale(0.5);

   * # add eps to the current page. This is your main document. *
    $p->importeps($e, 10,50);



Regards,
Joe Cheri Ross
